[FMX] Navigation help - elastic movie clip (?)

[angrybot55]

I am interested in building a nav system like www.frontmedia.co.uk (http://www.frontmedia.co.uk) . I am a newbie at Flash. I was wondering if someone could break down how it is actually built.

Is it a movie clip that has an action script for the elasticity attached to it? Are the buttons within the movie clip controlling the movement? Both?

Sorry - I am not even sure where to start on this one...

Thanks in advance....

Yeah - I've looked at that - I am just confused on how to apply it so that it will create that effect on mouse release and to stop in a specific spot....

comon man dig into AS, it's the only way to learn; and then youll be amazed how easy it is =)

Basically the elasticity is a function applied to each menu movie clip; probably using the formulas.

Now I don't know anything about elasticity but Im willing to look at it with you...

start with the first one, and try and add the elasticity to the menu, if you have any problems just ask here.
