I’m trying to make a movie clip follow my mouse. I have that working. But I want to designate a specific area where this the following of the cursor happens. Outside of this area the house would be visible and functional normally.

startDrag(“myMovieclip”, true);  
Mouse.hide();

Thanks in advance for any help.
