Hey guys im working on a flash viewer with arrows on the bottom that allow you to scroll through a number of different images/information. I want it to fly in and fly out of the screen. The only way I could think of doing it (im somewhat of a flash noob) is to just make all the animations of the “fly ins” and then copy all the frames and reverse them. Then when u click back it plays the reverse animation. This makes it VERY TEDIOUS and a MAJOR PAIN if constant changes will need to be made…Anyone have any ideas how this can be done more effectively?

Here is a link of the FLA file if anyones interested how i did it.

Thanks in advance for your help guys! Later!
