Making an actor grow

Hi, I'm fairly new to GameSalad and need some assistance with a couple of things. Is there a way that I can fix the bottom of the actor (which is basically just a vertical line) in place, and make its height grow to the mouse click position? It would also have to be able to extend to different angles, not just straight up.

To paint a clearer picture, what I'm trying to achieve is something similar to a lizard, who's tongue (the actor mentioned above) darts out to where you tap on the screen.

Any suggestions?

    @Socks has a wobbly line demo that is pretty much exactly that. I can't find the link at the moment...

    Yeah, that should give them the basics . . . .

    Wow, that demo is impressive! I didn't think something like that was possible with gamesalad yet.

    So, with a bit of tweaking do you think I'll be able to achieve something like this http://i60.tinypic.com/f099pv.gif ?

    (thanks for the help by the way, it is very much appreciated)
