FK M.D.
a real challenge if you're up for it!
Hi all,
Thanks for checking this out. I am doing an auction lister in Flash for a client to run off his custom script and database, and am running into a problem with doing a seamless scroller. That is, one that scrolls seamlessly back to the first menu item/row. Here is an example of a seamless scroller I did for Jeff Nyman:
http://www.coxformat.co.uk/
Here there are 3 duplicates of the menu, side-by-side, and if you go way to the right it instantaneously jumps back to the left.
But with this new project, I am dynamically generating each row based on one of two initial rows (one grey and the other white). Alternating grey & white. Then data is loaded in to dynamic text boxes in each row.
I found a tech note at macromedia explaining that you cannot duplicate dynamically generated MC's, the way I initially tried to do it. One thought I had was to make a large number of rows initially, then delete the MC's with the script based on the number of rows returned by another script. This way I could duplicate them since they already existed at load. But I am thinking it will duplicate the initial state of the parent MC (all the rows contained) instead of after some have been deleted.
Any ideas for workarounds? Other approaches that you can think of to this problem? Thanks in advance!
