Well, we can add another  tutorial to the list of available tutorials.

I have put my tutorial on "advanced"  scrolling online:

www.cc-imaginering.nl/runrev

This tutorial starts off simple with the scrolling of a picture
(with some extra features of course, just to make it more interesting)
but in the end it will  teach you the scrolling behaviour like in 
drawing programs
for instance. You will learn how to move objects around in a virtual 
space
with the right scrolling behaviour. Touching the side will start the 
scrolling
and if neccesary, and desired, will also grow the virtual space to 
accomodate for
the movement. (This "growing" can be switched on or off for all 4 sides 
independently)

I have no idea how many of you have thought about using this kind of
more advanced scrolling in your projects, but if so, this tutorial 
might help
you. (and perhaps safe you a lot of time. It took me quite some time 
and frustration
to get it right, as it isn't quite that obvious how to to it right)
Even if you don't need this "fancy" kind of scrolling, chances are you
will discover some usefull things about scrollbars / sliders and runrev 
in general
in this turorial anyway. (besides having a good time I hope)

I hope you will enjoy this tutorial and that it will broaden your 
understanding, give
you new ideas or new solutions to solve a problem you are dealing with.

Let me know what you think about it so I might be able to improve it in 
the future.
(and maybe write other tutorials aswell)

In the mean time happy programming,

Claudi
