I’m working on a project where I have masking…from one of the tutorial. It works but I can’t get my mouse to move anywhere else on the page to reveal the rest of the page. I know it has to do with the x an y position. I just don’t know what code should go in there. also I have a mouse that has a trail…but I can’t get it to follow the exact location of the mouse. this also is due to the coordinates of the mask. I also have rollovers that are not masked. How would I do that? (not as important as the first two problems) If you could please help me that would be great. I have attached my file. Thank you in advance. :trout: ---

I’m new at this forum. I’ve been trying to send my file but it’s too big and I don’t think it will send a zip file. Would it be okay to email you the zip file to your email address?
