I recently made the mistake of trying to teach myself Flash and now I thiink I am hopelessly addicted to the education process tied to this software. Anyway, currently, and such, I am trying to create a menu that is very similar to the one found at www.TokiDoki.it. So far i’ve designed the menu. I am now trying to figure out how to get it to move out while the mouse is over it and retract when the mouse moves off of it … I still need to figure out how to do page transitions too but … one step at a time I guess.  
Where was I … og I tried to set up code where if the mouse rolled over the image it would do something, but … about half way through that process I realized I have no clue what I was doing. I am in way too deep … but I like it.

I am not looking for anyone to write me code or anything I just am new to the scene and if anyone could point me in a couple of directions it would be a great help.

Thanks in advance and such.

Welcome, chiaroobscuro,

Try to have a look at the onRollOver and onRollOut dynamic event handlers: onRollover, you tell your clip to go some place (with easing, there’s a tutorial here), and onRollOut, you tell it to go some place else… 🙂
