actionscript above removes mouse from screen. it was over movieclip every time u wanted to watch it. this way movie clip itself becomes the mouse cursor.

actionscript - finished...

onClipEvent (load) {

stop();

setProperty(this, _alpha, 50);

}

on (rollOver) {

play();

setProperty(this, _xscale, 170);

setProperty(this, _yscale, 170);

setProperty(this, _alpha, 100);

this.swapDepths(1000)
}

on (rollOut) {

stop();

setProperty(this, _alpha, 50);

setProperty(this, _xscale, 100);

setProperty(this, _yscale, 100);

}
