My fault. There was a typo in
"butagain._y=(height-butagain-_height)/2;", because I wrote heigth
instead of height. Sorry for that.

scalex and scaley seems to work, but I cannot use them, because I place
and scale both info and slide_no with AS variables.

I tried to use .sprite with slide_no, but slide_number isn't displayed.
This is the code I use:

.sprite slide_number
    .put slide_no
.end

.frame 1
        .put slide_number
        .action:
                slide_number._x=width-(width/2+slide_number._width);
                slide_number._y=0;
                slide_number._scalex=50;
        .end

The actual presentation can be found at

and the full script is available at

What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks,
