Loading in pictures for a slide show

[kentbrockman]

I have a bar across the top of my slide show which displays thumbnails of pictures, when these thumbnails are clicked i want the big picture to apper underneath. whats the easiest way to do this?

Thanks, Regards.

Hiya

Make the thumbnail images into button symbols. On each button you can attach the following :


on (release) {
loadMovieNum("myJpeg1.jpg", 100);
}

If you load the pictures into the same level each time it will take out the previous one. To position the pictures in a specific spot it may be better to make each picture into a seperate single frame clip and then use loadMovieNum("clipName_mc", 100) instead.

Ok i went to for the movie clip option, but when i click the button its trying to find 'pic1_mc' in the directory...why isnt it looking for the movie clip?
