Hi,

I have recently followed a tutorial to make a movieclip in flash that makes buttons spin around a point depending on the mouse position. I have made my own version off this and would like to use it in a full flash website that i am making at the moment.

The only problem that i am having is with aligning this clip and as it is made up of script i cant physicly drag it to were i want it. I understand how to alighn this with x/y positioning but when i preview the flash in a web browser it is positioned correctly but then when i ‘full screen’ the browser this clip jumps about 4 inches down the page.

Please if anyone can understand wheat i am rabeling on about in my newbie terms please try and help.

I think i just need a more accurate way off positioning a clip using script.
