I'm new...
So lets say that I have a variable "x" that controls the x of a button. Is it possible to constantly set "x" to the scrollbar??

So if the Scrollbar, or Slider for that matter = 5, then "x" would be set to 5.
Something like
- Put Scrollbar "myScrollbar" into "x"

please help, it is highly frustrating.

I believe what you are looking for is the property "thumbPosition".

Hi STEAMlab,

1. welcome to the forum!

2. What magice said:
...
put the thumbpos of sb "your scrollbar here" into x
## NO QUOTES around x, since this is a variable!
...

3. I recommend to check these great stacks to get the basics of Livecode:
