it's not AS notation, 'mx' is actually 'm * x', and the m stands for the slope (i.e., the higher the m the steeper the angle). c is an offset, you won't need it.
So, you take the mouse's x position, multiply by your slope, and get the y you want to set the dragged clip to. HTH, Mark On 1/5/07, eric dolecki <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
