Hi guys

I is trying to get my movie to move in the opposite direction to the mouse within a certain area, eg when my movie gets to the edge of the area it slows down.

I’ve got this far but now I is stuck…

```auto
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
    _root.yChange = Math.round(_root._ymouse+this._y);
    _root.xChange = Math.round(_root._xmouse+this._x);
    _root.yMove = Math.round(_root.yChange/20);
    _root.xMove = Math.round(_root.xChange/20);
    this._y -= _root.yMove;
    this._x -= _root.xMove;
}

```

Any pointers would be grand

cheers guys
