Im making a flash mp3 player and was looking at some exaples on the net, one of
which had a drop down menu from which you could select an song from a list. I
don't know if it used a list component but you were able to scrool just using
the position of the mouse on the list.

For example, the closer you are to the top of the list, the faster it scrolls
up. I'd show you the example but unfortunately the link is down. It's similar
to what i've seen before in online gallery type sites but contained within a
list box.

So, can this be done with a list component, if so how? otherwise how can it be
done? It's a really nice effect.

Thanks

it's more like the one on this site:

I've since found a tutorial on how to create this effect. I'm not sure that it
best suits my application but i think it will work.

At the moment i'm using a list component to store the data and label
information for the mp3 files. This tutorial uses a one-dimensional array so im
sure I can customize it to work with what i'm doing even though I'm new to
actionscript.

An tutorial's file is on this website:

http://www.friendsofed.com/download...isbn=1590595947

It's in the folder Chapter 4 if you're interested in checking it out.

If you have any ideas on a better way to implement this for my application let
me know.

Thanks :)
