Hi there!
I’m realy stuck with the following problem :
I’ve created a emptyMovieclip as the “holder” of a variabel amount of movies.
The xposition of the holdermovie responds to the _xmouse.
Now i want to let the movie “wrap” arround the screen
So when a nested movie moves outside of the screen on the left side, i change the xposition of the that nested movie in the holder to the position of the last nested movie + the moviewidth of the nested movie.
This way the width of the holder stays the same but the problem is that the Xposition of the holdermovie does not change.
I’m i thinking wrong or should the Xposition of the holder be deterimend by the first nested movie.
