<a href=”http://www.actionscripts.org”>ActionScripts.org</a> is hosting a <a href=”http://www.actionscripts.org/press/archives/000183.shtml” target=”_blank”>component contest</a> for a copy of <a href=”http://www.multidmedia.com/software/flashstudio/”>Flash Studio Pro</a>.

<a href=”http://psychlonex.dyndns.org/”>John</a> and I are working on a mod of the FScrollBar to not only emulate Windows XP and Mac OSX, but it will detect which OS your on, and use the appropriate my skins. Still trying to figure out how to do a Linux version; I got Red Hat on my other comp, but no idea how to use it, hehe. I’ll try my damndest to give him the copy of Flash Studio Pro because I just wanna win. However, I think my boss at my work has us both beat…

Someone on the <a href=”http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/”>Flashcoders list</a> had <a href=”http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/ezmlm/ezmlm-cgi/1/66171″ target=”_blank”>posted</a> about having Macromedia make the components they used on their new website available. During the conversation, Scott had mentioned he was trying to get the Windows XP traction piece on the Flash scrollbar. I offered up a solution. Not an end all, be all, but a mod none the less. The file can be downloaded on the left, “<a href=”https://www.jessewarden.com/downloads/Scrollbar%20Traction.zip”>Scrollbar Traction</a>”. Basically, I add another movie clip inside the scrollbar, and position it when the scrollbar changes. I have commented in the code where I added code.
