Hi all,

I found this really great fla posted some time ago by senocular:

[http://www.umbc.edu/interactive/fla/slidezoom.swf](http://www.umbc.edu/interactive/fla/slidezoom.swf)  
[http://www.umbc.edu/interactive/fla/slidezoom.fla](http://www.umbc.edu/interactive/fla/slidezoom.fla)

I have two questions:

1. Can anyone tell me the best way to swap it so that the user can drag the frame in the inset and have it update on the big map? I know the drag button has to be on the inset but can’t get it to work.

2. Is it possible to build some kind of container MC that the zoom and drag acts upon but can contain different maps? In other words, the inset and the base map always stay the same but the user could press a button and load something on top of the base map and still be able to zoom and drag around?

Thanks for any help!
