help with continuously scrolling buttons

[mkm]

hey all,

i am looking for better way to make a continuously scrolling collection of buttons. Basically, i have a number of buttons (that are actually photos) that scroll horizontally across the bottom of the screen. At the moment, i have used a tween to create the movement, but i need something better for the following reasons:

1. Once tweened, i cannot go back and change any buttons
2. If i need to add more buttons, i must basically create the whole movie from scratch again

When i say continuously scrolling, this is what i mean:

Say my buttons (which are actually photos) are named 1 2 3 4 and 5. Here is the effect i want:

12345 51234 45123 34512 23451 etc etc... cleanly and continuously scrolling at a constant speed...

is this even possible without a tween? i have tried for ages with no success! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
mkm

Just adjust the speed on each of them to make em slow down or speed up. It needs to be tweaked for positioning, but other than that its perfect.
