I’m looking for something to do just this, I dont want the user to see a draggable bar - I just want a button above and below the masked layer, such that when the user rollsover the button the masked content scrolls up and down… I can make it scroll pretty simply myself, but looks naff without the easing.

</div>

I have the file and it works fine when i use the original one that claudio posted. I can resize and all of that etc. now i copied the scroller into my flash file i wanted to use it in and it does not work anymore the up and down buttons move the dragger up and down but the main.mc with the text and images dont move anywhere. This data is not on the root level anymore because i copied it onto my file. Do i need to change the actionscript in there to get it to work? this is the level in which it resides left most is root.’

Scene1 --\> interface.mc --\> MENU.MC --\> SUBBURRITO.MC (it the scrollbar function resides here)

Thanks for any help

I was referred to this thread by a fellow board member, I have to say it is pretty sweet! =) Before I dig too deep into the code and stuff though, I am wondering if it supports links for individual pictures (seems like what’s scrollable is drawn from a movie clip)? I am trying to build a portfolio site so that’d come in handy. =) Sorry I am new to Flash, though I had some experience in Director, hoping that might help.

</div>

is it a mac thing but I can’t see any of the posted actionscript changes to the ‘claudio scroller’?  
I’ve read that other people have had the same problem which is, the dragger on the scroll bar going off the bar (vertically) and under the down button when you scroll all the way down the content mc. I changed the movie height from 200 to 250 pixels high which I think is the cause and have been trying to change the parameters in the actionscript but frankly Im just stabbing around in the dark…  
help?  
or is it too late now…

Nice job on the scroller Claudio. I would like to know about the question above as well. How difficult would it be to convert it to a horizonal scroll?

Thanks!

Mike

hey .soulty, any resolution on the text not showing until the scrollbar is dragged?

I’ve been playing with it and haven’t figured it out.

Thanks.

Hey Claudio, thanks for replying. I love your scroll bar but having some issues with external text. Have a look…when you test the movie it isn’t until the scrollbar is clicked that the text appears. is the a way of fixing this so the text appears when the swf is tested?

thanks for your help.
