Still here asking x help.
Hi everyone,
I got some problems with the dimension of a series of pics that are suppose to slide.
Some details:
Simple layout, Stage size 400w X 300h
45 x 400 bottom bar for 14 buttons ( so r the pics)
400 x 255 usable space to slide the pics
every button has an action like that:
on (release) {
\_root.controller.targXpos2 = 1500;
}
the last number, the x position make me going crazy, I know it should be easy but I can handle 14 pics moving around x the stage ( 5230 pixel width )
---------Actions x the controller: -----------
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
setProperty(\_root.bar, \_x, cX-(difX/14));
cX2 = \_root.content.\_x;
difX2 = cX2-targXpos2;
setProperty(\_root.content, \_x, cX2-(difX2/14));
}
onClipEvent (load) {
targXpos = 65;
targXpos2 = 2615;
}
Does any one can help me understand how i can calculate the right number for every button so all the pics will be showed centered.
glad to give u more details if u need.
There is also a bar following the mouse over the button but i will take it away.
sorry if all this sound stupid but i am quite new to AS .
good Easter:pope:

first of all thanks x your interest, after two days i was givin’ up.
With centered i mean that my stage w. is 400px and the "content "which is suppose to slide is around 5000px.
I need to find the key to assign to every button the right \_x position but as i said B4 i am not so good with A.S.
there is a downlodable sample at [www.yahoo.com](http://www.yahoo.com)
