How do I create a horizontal scroll menu?

Hi,

I would like to create a horizontal scroll menu (1 row, X columns) where the user is able to either click on left/right arrows to navigate, or drag a scrolling bar to view the items within the menu.

How can I achieve this?

Here is a demo I made for someone else:

Thanks a lot for sharing your demo!

Based on your demo, the images are already pre-loaded in the game. Is there a way for me to dynamically populate the items via an AJAX call instead, while still having the scrolling feature?

Yes, create a few empty frames in the animation, set a different frame for each sprite instance and load an image. (not with AJAX, but using "Sprite Load from URL" action)

You can create many empty frames. If you think there may be a maximum of 20 images, then create 20 frames, or even 30.
