I tried to follow the totorial “[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash5/follow.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash5/follow.htm)”
I’m working in mx, it doesn’t work.
I have created a movie clip , while rolls.
I’, using that in a scene by using the action script
startDrag(“follow”, true);
Mouse.hide();
is there anything wrong in my procedure

That’s what I use. Works for me. The cursor wont seem to jump around a lot if you bump up your fps to 30 (or so).
this is another Flash 5 tut, if you want to play around with different code. I’m pretty sure it will work in MX.
