I'm not sure about links to explanations of "_parent" and "this" other than the documents, but for using the Tween class, look up Jen de Haan on the Macromedia site. She wrote a great article about its usage. For the first param in Tween, are you using _parent.obj? Try tracing that object, and see if it traces what you want to tween first. - MM _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
