Motion Paths and AS

Hello,

I have a circle path with a MovieClip attatched to it. Is it possible to make the MC follow the path (continually looping) whilst there is a rollOver command.? Yes - of course.

But … What I want to achieve, rather than instigating play();, is a an ease in whilst the rollover happens, and then on the rollOut, again an ease to a halt. Basically achieving a more natural start and stop of the object. And allowing the object to slowly start/stop anywhere on the path, rather than a designated ‘frame number’ on the roll over/out …

Any hints … Thanks!
