Subject: RE: FLASH: Constraining Dragable M.C.
From: Lamont, Sarah

greg,
I'm still having problems.... ???
this is what I have in my button:

On (Press, Drag Over) Start Drag ("", L=-247.5, T=0, R=-218.5, B=400) End On On (Release, Release Outside, Roll Out, Drag Out) Stop Drag End On
I clicked the "use center" like you said, and the coordinates it gave me
were:
x = -247.5
y = -132.5
w = 29.0
h = 13.0

Like I said, I want the m.c. to just be able to be dragged up and down. Can
you help me?
thanks so much!
