In this slider version, one can drag a pointer around a circular path and the corresponding reduced bearing is shown.

In this version, the command 'attachMovie' is no longer used. Instead of creating 8 movie clips, only one movie clip is created to show the reduced bearing in different quadrant.
The idea in fact comes from Daniel's tutorial video part 4 about the changing colours of clothes. When I study this tutorial video again, I find that a movie clip is created with 3 different frames to indicate 3 colours. Then the 'telltarget' action in each button is used to change the colour of the clothes.
Based on this idea, I create a movie clip for the text box showing the reduced bearing with 8 frames. Then the 'telltarget' action is used to prompt the movie clip to jump to a particular frame for different angles.

Dear Jaco,
Your project are very nice. Sliding bar are also nice too. But I cannot drag A, B, C, D on the dot line. Please tell me how to do.
Please give me some suggestion for me blog. http://www.xanga.com/yyechan2

Dear Kenneth,
In fact, the pointers for A, B, C, & D have not been added in this incomplete version. In order to decide whether a slider or buttons are used, we attempt to design a slider to drag a pointer in this version. Both my teammate and I agree that a slider is a better choice. So we will change from buttons to a slider in our final version. Thanks for your comment.

Hi, I am Patrick Lai, Ka Ming.
A bit reommendation are:
* add a little instruction for the use of slide bar to change the bearing
* The "Task description" and the "Conclusion" text is better to have a semi-transparent background (like the one for HK map).
* Alternatively, these text can be shown in the "empty regions" where the important components will not be blocked visually.
