I tried to stay out of the Beno discussion... but this one is funny.

I should have thought to post yesterday that I finally got Cor's separate class concept working, so unfortunately I don't need this code...for *this* project. (Thought to post after I went home.) But I do need to study code! So I'll study it and use it somewhere else.

I know.

How can I do any less?
beno, the enclosed code contains comments which you should read as
instructions (i.e. what you need to do.)
NOTE: beno, in your .fla, you will need to go into the library and edit
mcCloseThumbTop and mcCloseThumbBottom to correct those graphics as they are
way out of position relative to the registration point. Also, turn off
Slice-9 on mcCloseThumbBottom.
I hope I haven't made it too easy for you.
