How can I change this menu?
I've got a menu that I downloaded where the user's mouse floats across the different options. It looks farily simple, but I've got to edit some things in order to accommodate the larger collection of graphics that will represent my menu and that's where I'm running into trouble.
While the visible ActionScript appears minimal, there's a component in the library and I'm fairly certain it's there where I'll find the settings that I need to change in order to make "room" for my new menu.
I need someone to show me how to access the settings within that component and that what settings I need to make. I don't want someone to just "do it" for me, I want to learn because I'm going to use this same approach with another idea and I'm going to have to know how to pop open the hood and make some changes.
You can access the file by heading out to http://hihatwebdesign.com/Horizontal.zip. Again, I need to change the settings so the entire menu will be exposed.
Thanks!

Hey, blue-genie!
Thanks for your willingness to look at this!
I put two additional files online. One is the first file I posted as a CS3 file. I was a little concerned because when I went to save it, there was some verbiage about some missing files and I wasn't sure what they were talking about. So I also posted the file as a Flash 8. Hopefully, between the two files you should be able to work your magic.
Thanks!

I need the stage area to be 1000 pixels across
I need to eliminate the arrows
Those are basically the changes I need to be made. Then to just have the new graphics show up the way I have them on the screen - that's what I'm wanting to do.

I was able to figure it out based on an older file I had modified. I wanted to give you the points for taking the time that you did in an attempt to help. Thanks!
ok. so it still scrolls but with no arrows - is that right?
or can you upload a static graphic of what you're trying to achieve. i'll try it over the weekend.
i'll check back then.
