Hi - can anyone help? I'm creating an interface for an audio-visual EP release
that loads in several 'layers' of content - an MP3, a series of photos, some
ambient visualisations, etc....

The important part is that all content has to be synchronized (eg: specific
photos must display at certain points in the song).

Each bit of content exists in a different movie clip, and each clip should be
draggable, with a 'close' or 'minimise' button.

The problem is that when a movie clip is closed or minimised, the content must
stay synchronized so that if the user re-opens the clip, it does not start
playing from the begining.

Although I have found a few tutorials that cover dragging, minimising, and
even synchronized , I cannot find a way of combining all these elements into a
workable solution. Any help would be most welcome indeed and will result in a
web site credit. By the way, I am using Flash MX.

Many thanks,

~ Elliot
