FLASH: can this be done in Flash?

[Bert]

Hi,


I've been looking all over every flash-site I know to find a solution for

this problem. My client wants me to make a drawn iron, iron a piece of cloth

(or whatever) with an unreadable text on top. While you're ironing the thing

with the mouse (drag it over) the text becomes readable and the surface of

the cloth gets a bit lighter and must stay that way.

I can't think of a solution and maybe we should try something completely

different but first I wanted to ask the list, if there is no way of doing it

that I don't know of (JS, actionscript...). Maybe some expert in masking

techniques who can help me?


I hope my english is well enough for you to understand what I'm talking

about. I've put the illustration on this page

Thanks a lot!


Bert
