Hi there,

How would I ‘invert’ the “mouse follow with easing” code bellow - So that my mouse follow is mirrored? ie: when the mouse is at the bottom x=10 y=-50, the MC is at placement is x=-10 y=50 (thus the top) .

I am trying to create a moving camera presence with a subtle lighting fx, that reacts to mouse placement.

onClipEvent (load) {  
\_x = 0;  
\_y = 0;  
speed = 5;  
}  
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {  
endX = \_root.\_xmouse;  
endY = \_root.\_ymouse;  
\_x += (endX-\_x)/speed;  
\_y += (endY-\_y)/speed;  
}

Help anyone ? This should be easy stuff - I just havent made it there yet!

Thanks!!!:pirate3:
