I saw the scrollbar tutorial at [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash8/scrollbar.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash8/scrollbar.htm)

I was wondering… is it possible to make that scrollbar contain buttons?  
The tuturial had only one movie clip as the contents…  
I’d need to put some (16) buttons below eachother and then use a scrollbar to scroll thorugh them…

Can this be done? The script in that tutorial, if I understood correctly, would work only with a single movie clip called ‘contentMain’.  
:puzzled:

I need to be able to scroll through those buttons and then press on them too…

you cant ?  
When you trow some buttons in one movieclip, you can still click on them.  
That holder-mc will be scrolled, so that the buttons inside it will do the same.  
Its like everyting you place inside the mc will be scrolled. 🙂
