Here's a hard one... (dynamic slider button)

[aer design]

hey... any help on the below would be sweet >


Version:
Flash MX (mac)

Current Status (ref attachment):
i have a sliding movie that moves objects (buttons) along in response to the placement of the mouse. once clicked, they take the movie (_root) to a new frame.

Desired Effect:
i would like to create an effect that when the moving button is clicked, it then scales and zooms out, from what ever position is was in, to fill the whole screen.
(eg. moving thumbnails of photos that when clicked animate and fill the screen.)

Questions:
do you think the best way would be to have a motion tween on another frame that starts at the X/Y coordinates of the mouse??? what would be the general script for this


thanks for your time.
cheers!

if your thumbnails where actually movieClips you could make them scale etc through actionscript.

ie: click on thumbnail mc --> activates a onEnterFrame action which scales the movie to the size and location that you want.. irrespective of the starting location...

- sorry such a short reply but should really be working! hope it helps..

hi. thanks for your reply.

would you be able to quickly place the onEnterFrame action within an script example so i may view its syntax.

i had a go at it by didn't get it to work.

cheers!
