Really need your HELP with Horizontal Navbar :(

Hello,

I’m a Flash newbie. :nurse:

I’m attempting to make a horizontal navbar similar to the 1 at mabstudio.com. With slight variations.

I got some code from Google. However, I’ve scrubbed the web for days in an attempt to find out where I got this horizontal navbar from but I can’t find it again! lol. :diss:

The problem is that the Navbar simply won’t allow to me put as many thumbnails as I want. What I want to happen is that (& I’ve succeeded in doing this so far) when a user clicks on a thumbnail, my movieclip with the original unphotoshopped photo loads below. When the user does a mouseover my Photoshopped version of the photo loads. Simple, right? :smiley: Riiiight.

So anyway I’m trying to put like 20+ or 30+ thumbnails on the navbar & I see that the stage won’t let me do that anymore. It seems there is a limit to the amount of thumbnails that I can put in this movieclip. I’ve thought of making a “Scene 2” but it won’t scroll the way Scene 1 scrolls! It’s like limited scrollign or something. Also I would want to not have to use a close button for the photos. I mean, the user can just click back to a previous photo & not have to close the one that’s “on top”. Since my photos are on Layers this is what it does.

I mean, for example I press the thumbnail for photo #2. When I press the thumbnail for photo#1, it shows BEHIND photo#2 so I have to close photo#2 in order to view photo#1. I’m wondering if there is some CODE that I could use so movieclip1 closes the moment I click the thumbnail for movieclip2… I think I can do that but what I want to be able to do is tell Flash to close ANY photo (in a movieclip) that’s blocking my view of Photo#1. I mean it can be photo#4 or #26 or what, & not just photo#2 (inside its own movieclip, of course).

If you are willing to help, please let me know (email/pm here)? I’ve tried helping myself with this & I’ve read up on some actionscripting but I just don’t get it… =|

Thanks in advance =) and Happy New Year to everyone!
