Hey,

I’m wanting a movieclip to mirror the x and y of the mouse, so when the mouse moves left I want it to move right, only ever meeting at the center point of the page. I have a feeling this has a really simple answer but it’s just not coming to me (and google hasn’t helped much either).

So far,

\*mcMouse.startDrag(true);  
Mouse.hide();

addEventListener(Event.ENTER\_FRAME,onGo);

function onGo(e:Event):void

{

```
mcMirror.y = **?some equation using mcMouse.y?** ;
mcMirror.x = **?some equation using mcMouse.x?** ;

```

}\*

Thanks in advance!
