// Let’s import the libraries we plan to use

import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;

// the star states we will import
// all eases

// Now we will create a batch of variables
// that will store the coordinates for each
// area of our large movie clip
// each pair represents a “page”

var homeX:Number= 103; // We will check on stage
// the coordinate for x and y when button home is clicked
var homeY:Number= 47;

// Now the same for prices

var pricesX:Number= 694;
var pricesY:Number=-365;

// Now the same for Contact
var contactX:Number= -489;
var contactY:Number=-379;

//These variables will hold the Tween
// to be executed

var xTween:Tween; // holds the horizontal tween
var yTween:Tween; // holds the vertical tween

xTween = new Tween (main_mc,”x”,Strong.easeInOut,main_mc.x,homeX,2,true);
yTween = new Tween (main_mc,”y”,Strong.easeInOut,main_mc.y,homeY,2,true);

// Event Listeners
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, navigate);
prices_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, navigate);
contact_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, navigate);

//Note that all buttons will lead to the same function
//The only difference is the values they will pass

//Functions

function navigate (event:MouseEvent):void {

function setTween ( tweenX:Number, tweenY:Number) :void
{

//This retrieves the location of our large movie clip
//To be used as starting point of our desired tween

yTween.begin = main_mc.y;

//This assigns the values passed from
// the navigate function as the end location
// of the tween
xTween.finish = tweenX;
yTween.finish = tweenY;

//After assigning values, this fires the tween
xTween.start();
yTween.start();
