Hey there Kirupa flashers! 🙂

I really need some hints on this one. I’m trying to make it possible to scale an object in flash (the same way you can resize/scale your browser window - by dragging the lower right corner).

Lets say that I’ve made a box (movieclip), and in the lower right side of the box, there is a small hit area (movieclip or button) - by dragging the hit area to the right, the box scales ONLY to the right… etc - I think (or hope) you know what I mean! :h:

Any clues on how the left alignment remains the same…? Tried with the registation point - but I can’t get it to work!?

Any help would be nice!
