Question - How to create a MiniMap?

Hi everyone,

I’ve been cheking this question for a while but I can’t find any answer anywere, and sincerely I don’t even know if it is possibly, so I hope someone can give me a hint. Here it is:

I know that you can add a child into some movieclip so it’s properties are attached to the one of that mc.

But what I want to do is to put a certain mc inside another one. What I mean for example, is to create a mini map for my game, and i want the objects that i dynamically create to be inside that square of the minimap and in case I scroll the screen the objects inside that minimap also scrolls but it does not go outside the square.

Just an information: I am not using tiles in the game…

(This idea would be something like PowerCLip Effect in Corel Draw)

Any ideas?

Thanks
