Thanks. My scour of ActiveDen has begun...

Also, what would you say was an optimal frame rate?

Hey, thanks, I'll give that a go. I really appreciate your quick response. There is a next stage to this code. When the user scrolls the menu the position of that scroll needs to be sent to another scrolling menu. Please set attached swf (I've just added a very basic, dummy version of this second menu). So for example, when the user scrolls from item 4 to item 7 on the 'main' menu, this is replicated on the 'small' menu by the arrow tweening from 4 to 7. Have you any suggestions how I go about this? Cheers

Hello there I need to create a vertical carousel like the one below: http://tutorials.flashmymind.com/2009/0 ... nscript-3/ The code for this carousel is great but is problematic when the carousel slows right down and the menu items appear to 'wobble'. It also crashes occasionally I wondered if there was a better, Greensock, way of doing things. Or would I be better sticking to this FlashMyMind code or something like Papervision. Any help/advice/suggestions are much appreciated as I need to get this sorted soon!! Thanks

Hello It seems I'm not quite finished with this one... Attached is a sample fla of how I've coded the above functionality. You'll see that when you scroll the menu, using ThrowProps, the menu will only stop at one of the 'special' menu items- the items that are light grey. It generally works great so thanks for the help. One thing though, I've noticed that the menu gets 'jerky' after a while. A few times I've noticed that rather than the menu glide to its destination it sort of jumps to its destination position. I've not managed to replicate it unfortunately but I wondered if you could look at my code and see if there's way I could optimise. Thanks [File deleted because it contained members-only plugins and classes]

Hello I just want to say 'thank you'. Your code and quick reply has helped me immensely. Cheers!

Hello there It would be fantastic if you can help me with my problem. I have a Menu movieclip containing a number of Menu Item movieclips and I am doing the vertical scrolling action using ThrowProps and BlitMask (thank you so much for this code - it is great!). Only some of the Menu Items are interactive/highlighted so as the scrolling halts we need to stop on the nearest highlighted Menu Item and this Menu Item needs to be positioned in the centre of the screen. Have you any suggestions about how this could be achieved? I imagine I would need to decide on the target position as the ThrowProps tween comes to its end, rather than specifying the target position when I make the ThrowProps call. So as the scrolling slows down, I would look for the nearest 'active' Menu Item and then send this target position to ThrowProps to complete the tween. Can this be done? Thanks
