I have no idea but maybe the carousel at http://giles.roadnight.name/components.cfm might give you some ideas. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, djbrown_rotonews [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: any help out there? --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, djbrown_rotonews djbrown_rotonews@ wrote: anyone? :) --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, djbrown_rotonews djbrown_rotonews@ wrote: I've got a tile list component that I want to be able to scroll through horizontally without the visual presence of the scroll bars themselves.

Setting horizontalScrollPosition might be better.

[flexcoders] Re: Programmatic scrolling of a TileList?
It sounds like you are on the right path, however, initially the scrollToIndex() is 1, correct? Each button click should increment the scrollToIndex() by 1 (or -1 if moving left on the list), so instead of scrollToIndex() being 4 after the click, it should be 2. Next click, 3, etc Just be careful to account for the total number in the index so you don't get an error by trying to go to index position of negative 1 or, in this example, 5. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, djbrown_rotonews [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: any help out there? --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, djbrown_rotonews djbrown_rotonews@ wrote: anyone? :) --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, djbrown_rotonews djbrown_rotonews@ wrote: I've got a tile list component that I want to be able to scroll through horizontally without the visual presence of the scroll bars themselves.

that's getting me tons closer to where I want to be, Alex. Thanks! and that carousel component looks pretty cool too. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Alex Harui [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Setting horizontalScrollPosition might be better.
