Scrolling to a point whislt being able to change direction

Question

Hi people, I need to build a scrolling page where there are
some static buttons on one side, when clicked the buttons scroll to
a certain point on a picture. I can do this with some simple
buttons and simple actionscript, however what I want to achieve is
whilst scrolling to one point on the picture the user can click on
another button and the scroller changes direction to where the user
has just clicked to go. For an example see
http://ourtype.be. Click on the
bottom button then on the top before it reaches it's destination
and it neatly scrolls to the top, How is this done??????
Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks all. you'll
be saving my hide.

You should also look at the CornerEffects sample script which allows you t apply an effect to selected corners. It was designed to run on a rectangle, so you should remove the exisiting corner effects before running it to get predictable results. Runiing it more than once or on a non-rectangular object can produce some very wild shapes, though, so go ahead and play.
And of course there's always the Pen Tool and the Direct Select tool that can be used to modify the existing corner points.
