Re: FLASH: maths and object movement. Equations needed.

[Q. Paradigm]

Its actually pretty easy...

The basic idea is that when the slider is being dragged you keep track of 

where the slider is and where it used to be the last time you checked... 

since flash moves at a constant rate if you subtract the current position by 

the last position you get the speed.  Once the slider is let go of you 

simply keep adding that # to the position of the slider each time. To make 

it slow down you just take a % off of the speed each time.


You can download a sample I just made at
