This is a tough one for me to explain. I took the kirupa end of days scroller tutorial and modified it to create a scrollbar for text and movieclips. It worked fine if everything was in the root, but I had to drop it in its own movieclip and re-target everything. Since doing so, the mc that should be scrolling no longer moves when I slide the dragger. It does move on load which really confuses me. Honestly, it would be easiest if anyone could just look at the fla file. Any help is greatly appreciated!
