Hi There,

I need some help.

I have combined the slideshow and gallery tutorials.

I am trying to build a thumbnail scroller with that shows you which thumbnail you are on each time the timer goes off

I am able to trace various things each time the timer goes off. But what I am trying to do is visually represent which thumbnail you are on in the loop by means of a pointer or outlining the thumbnail with a movieclip. See my illustration.

Can anyone point me in the right direction code wise? I’ve been struggling with this for a while. Sorry iff its a bit vague, have not done any AS stuff in while…

Thx for your help

Here are the working files
