Enter topic: Does anyone know of any Flash sites that instead of using the standard browser scrollbar it uses a built-in Flash scrollbar that scrolls the entire site. I've been to a few sites that have this but I can't remember which.
Also if anyone knows how this would be built that would be great.
Thanks.

Thanks guys. That's exactly what i was looking for. Anyone have an FLA for this or a tutorial on how to build it?

i'm assuming you didn't read the thread I linked

Yeah I did. I downloaded the file but it seems like there are bugs with it. I just wanted to see if there are other sources.

this one does it rather nicely - still fullscreen flash...I think its done with a Stage.onResize = function and a listener. Basically, if the stage gets below a certain size, then disable all other events on the listener(like scaling or repositioning) and kick in the scrollbars. For the functionality of those bars, check the links that Version4 sent, as well as a multitude of tutorials (just google it)...If you house all your content ina MC, just make the scrollbar coordinates correspond with the main MC (so everything will slide up and down with the scrolling)...Hope that helps, let me know if you need more specific examples/tutorials

also, it might be a bit overwhelming if you are not familiar with AS or an equivalent programming language...that said, Kirupa's tutorial is quite descriptive
