Thanks Paul, Unfortunately, that isn't quite what I'm after.
Setting selectedIndex doesn't necessarily scroll, it just selects an item. In your example, if you set the width of the list to 200 you'll see the problem. Has anyone else done this before? Surely this is something others have come across?

Not having a lot of luck. Has anyone done this before? I've extended the HorizontalList class in the hope of using some of the protected methods like scrollHorizontally() but I seem to be wasting a lot of time. Any help much appreciated.
