Was wondering if it would be possible to make a movie clip auto scroll after a set amount time of not being active, then when the mouse is over the scroll pane, that it stops and now allows the mouse to scroll it.

Any examples, or script you can supply to showcase this, or is it not possible?

Thanks,

Nick

Hi Nick,

The following code applies the behavior you request:

setTimeout(startScroll, 2000);
function startScroll() : Void {
xtd_scroller.scrollRight(true,100);
}

Firstly, let me describe the stage: it contains only the movie clip I want to scroll and an instance of Classic Scroller over it; the Classic Scroller instance on the stage is called "xtd_scroller". The setTimeout method allows you to set a time (2000 miliseconds) until the automatic scrolling starts and it's a Flash method. The automatic scrolling will be achieved by creating the startScroll method which makes use of the Creative Flash Scroller scrollRight method (or any other scrolling method available). While the automatic scrolling takes place, it can be bypassed by simply touch scrolling the movie clip normally; after the manual scrolling, the movie clip will remain still where the user lets it.

More information about the properties, methods and events available in Creative Flash Scroller can be found in the complete product documentation, in their dedicated sections - the ActionScript dictionaries.

I hope my answer solves your problem and you will obtain the best results with our product.
