    Definitely possible... Just try it your self.

    Create a mask, and then give it and instanceName and make it mask an image.

    Then, put this actionscript:

    instanceName._x = _root._xmouse

    and then it will follow the mouse on the horizontal.

    if you want to do it on the vert, then it's just:

    instanceName._y = _root._ymouse

    May not be what you are looking for but it gives you the basis for controlling the mask by the user. Then you just have to apply it to what you want. Sorry I don't have time to link a file so hopefully that helps!
