I have a simple MC that I want scolling only when the mouse is over it. It’s a small banner animation but I don’t want it running constantly as it may get a little distracting.

[Here’s a test of what I’m talking about.](http://www.bi-pro.com/temp/test.htm)

Basically, I want to add some easing to the animation so that when you roll over / out the anim doesn’t stop dead, but gradually slows down.

This is my AS code that I have running on the MC:

> on (release, rollOver) {  
> play();  
> }  
> on (release, rollOut) {  
> stop();  
> }

What would I need to add in order to get a nice easing happening?

TIA
