There isn't one in Flash. At least not yet. Its script engine is still

very much in the early stages of development by the looks of things.

(But then Flash was never engineered to do what Director does. Of course

one could argue that Director was never engineered to do what Director

does either.)

Easily I doubt. However why not, in this case, tween the eyeball through

360 frames -- one for each degree of rotation -- and determine which

frame to jump to next based on the mouse pointer location?


(I am assumng this is possible in 4. I have not really gotten into it,

and frankly my overall knowledge of Flash is spotty; I'm approaching it

from the Director-user side.)
