…how to make the scrollpane component scroll using the mouse. I am loading a movie clip inside the scrollpane and i need the mouse to be able to scroll it instead of just using the scrollbar.

cheers timothye, but thats not what im looking for. i have an mc with a background bigger then the viewable area of the scrollpane and i can use the scrollbar and arrows to move it around in the pane so u can see it all.

Is the anyway i could make it use the scroller on the mouse to make it go up and down so u can see it all???
