Scrolling images

hiya
i am trying to find out how to make a series of images horizontally scroll so that when you roll over the scroll box the scrolling begins, and if you move your cursor to the left side it goes left, if you move it to the right it scrolls right… and possibly control the speed by how far left or right you move the mouse… have seen it done on a few sites (though i can’t seem to find these examples today…) so hoping someone can explain or point to a place that explains it…

(also i am a knucklehead so please don’t be too confusing!)

thanks…

found an example at http://www.tomato.co.uk/index2.html - the way the text scrolls at the top…

THat is shock wave, not flash.

whoops!

thanks for the info!

I created an effect similar to what you are looking for in a site recently. It is a gallery web site that allows you to scroll through previews of paintings (www.worksbyamal.com)

I have mocked up a little demo of something closer to what you are looking for. You can get it at http://www.atomicchilli.com/gallery/galleryExample.zip

If you have any questions let me know.

hi atomicstu
i looked at what you have done and it is indeed very close to what i am wanting to achieve, but i was unable to look at the .fla file for it… wouldn’t open… probably a mac thing (if you are on PC)… thanks though!:bounce:

The file that I had uploaded was saved as Flash MX I have saved another copy as v5 and put it into the zip. I don’t know if it will make a difference but you could give it a try.

I have included a text file in the zip that has the actionscript and a few instructions so you should be able to recreate it anyway.
