I am trying to get an object to rotate and have one point follow my mouse curser in flash MX, but can’t figure out how. I have been ablt to get a simple object to follow the curser but cant seem to figuter this out. The basic object I am trying to get to rotate is a circle with an arrow out of the top. I want the circle to rotate with the arrow always facing the curser.
