Can't figure out how to make direction aware mouse over?

I don't have much coding skills at all so that is probably my main problem but does anyone know how to do this effect in Edge Animate? I'm very new to this program but over the last 2 weeks i've been trying to create this and epic failed. Any Advice? Thanks
