Hi!
When i visited the [www.sofake.com](http://www.sofake.com) page i fell in love.
Is there any tutorial who can learn me to do something like this?
How hard can it be? 🙂
Cherio
Mike

I’m not sure if they used this:

but it would work…

It´s an expensive way to do it I think… 🙂
Would it not work with transform or something?

couldn’t this be done with one large tween that resizes the image from small to very large and then just use another movie clip with a variable to store a frame name to loop a previousframe command until it reached the target frame?

Id just write a script with a zoomTo var that gets a value assigned when you click any one of the different buttons. Then have a scaling function with easing that gets called and scales to the defined zoomTo value (you’d obviously have to make the whole think one big clip)… hope this helps you out, if not I could write some code for you - but give it a go first.
Peace

just be careful of your file size…

yeah Rev has a great point there… to cut down on that you could chop the whole thing up at load/unload seperate clips in order as they come into or out of view - but this would make your code a completely different beast… try it with one simple MC first though… good luck

I think I saw a component that would do all the zooming functions on [www.flashcomponents.com](http://www.flashcomponents.com). If you download that you might be able to get it to do a lot of the hard work for you.

I tested a little but i don´t get it to work the way I want…
Check the file to see what i managed.
