Zoom like mono crafts menu...

I'm trying to code something similar to the scroll menu that you can see on the monocrafts web (www.yugop.com) but my problem is the zoom. The menubar is very large and if you scale it doesnt give the impression its zooming. If you move the mouse over the center of the screen and then above and below the scroll menu bar you´ll see its a perfect zoom...
Are there any way to make a zoom, and not a simple scale?

Hope anybody understands what i'm trying to do...
Thank you very much anticipately,

You need to scale exponetially to create a zooming effect.

Instead of zooming with

scale = n + 1
n = scale

use;

scale = N*2 + 1
n = scale


This may zoom a bit fast... if it does reduce the value of the multiplier (i.e. 2)

One thing to watch out for is that when you scale things up in Flash to many times their original size Flash goes very slow. There's a way round that. Just mail me & I'll explain it if you find its a problem.

Thanks for your answer, but the problem is when you try to scale the menu bar when the center point(of the movieclip with all the menu options) its to the left or right of the center of the screen... if you zoom in or out with the menu in this position (just zoom in or out, not move) the menu bar gives the impression its moving besides scaling... And this is because the flash scale things from its center point, so if its a bit scored to the left or right it seems like its moving at the same time...

Don´t know how to explain this... but thank you very much anyway
