How would I 'invert' the "mouse follow with easing" code bellow - So that my mouse follow is mirrored? ie: when the mouse is at the bottom x=10 y=-50, the MC is at placement is x=-10 y=50 (thus the top) . I am trying to create a moving camera presence with a subtle lighting fx, that reacts to mouse placement.

I am looking for a quick and simple way of having a movieclip follow the mouse with easing, until it reaches the mouse, at which point I want it to stop. It needs to ease out, so the standard cursorMC.x = mouseX will not do (also because it doesn't update the position of the mouse.
View 1 Repliesi just read the tutorial on mouse follow with easing.i've been trying to work on it not that its that hard but what i've been trying to do is to make an object get to the mouse with any easing at a constant rate probably i'm skipping on some concept, but i'm gettin into line equations n stuff .... which is makin the code really comlpicated and still there are some hiccups in the code [code]in this code , division with the constant "speed" is what results in the easing but i'm talkin about the object approaching the mouse at a constant rate

View 14 RepliesIm trying to make the cursor invert so when you go left on your mouse the mouse pointer goes right, basically the cursor goes the opposite way to your mouse. I have no idea where to start or even if its possible. I assume it be a case of hiding the original mouse pointer then using a MC of a pointer which has the inverted movement applied to it?? The inverted cursor also needs to be able to click a button that would put the cursor back to normal. Im using CS5 so either AS2 or 3

Is there any way to increase the sensitive area to the whole screen without increasing the actual size of the movie?
View 1 RepliesI'm learning a followease tutorial and get it working but am trying to learn more from this. With this tutorial when mouseover, the arrow marker eases following the mouse. For e.g I have a column of buttons. When the mouse moverover Button1 it plays MC1 and stopped. When it mouseover Button2 it plays MC2 and stopped. How can it be done?
View 4 RepliesI am using CS3 and trying to get an object to follow the mouse and having a hard time finding a tutorial on this, because all of the ones i have found want me to add the actionscript to the MC, and my version of flash won't let me do that. Flash expects me to attach it to the frame and so the code doesn't work.
View 11 Replies...without using the startDrag method. I know I can use code like this inside of a mouse event listener/function:
Code:
objectMC.x=mouseX;
objectMC.y=mouseY;
This code makes the object move with the mouse, but only if I move the mouse very slowly. When I move the mouse quickly, the mouse leaves the area of the object and thus the MOUSE_OVER listener stops listening, causing the object to stop.
I can't find any info on this so I guess I'll just ask. I'm trying to make moveclips that will follow the mouse pointer on MOUSE_OVER but only up to a certain distance then tween back to its original coordinates (preferably with a bounce or elastic ease).I tried startDrag(); on mouse over and that works quit cool but the problem is stopping the drag...
View 5 RepliesI'm trying to get a little mc to follow my mouse but stop when it gets to the "walls" (borders).
I first tried to test when the mc itself hit that _x value:
Code:
if (this._x <= 88){
_root.mc_go = false;
} else {
[Code]....
but when the mouse leaves the area, the mc does not continue to follow it all the way to the border, it just stops immediately.
I have a mouse sensitive vertical scroll panel... actually i got 5 next to each other. When i hover my mouse over one, it starts scrolling, and the second i remove the mouse, it instantly stops... and it doesnt look very neat. So what i would like is an easing effect, so that if i pull my mouse away, it takes a second or so before it stops scrolling.
Here is my code for one of the scrollboxes, incase you need it
ActionScript Code:
box01panel.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, panelOver01);
function panelOver01(event:MouseEvent):void {
[code]....
I have a horizontal scrollbar but I can't make it easing on mouse click. But I am optimist you can solve this problem.

View 5 RepliesI'm thinking up new ideas that are always WAY above my knowledge level BUT ..
I was checking out the Tutorial @ [URL]...mouseclick.htm and it got me to thinking, that would be a great way to show which button you last clicked.
How hard would it be to have that Ease with Mouse Click work, and stay put on the buttons in the site, I think it'd get pretty confusing if it eased on over to every url you clicked. Also, I want to use some scrolling menu's, would it be possable to have the dot/png/graphic stick to that button until another is clicked?
I know I probably just asked about four posts worth of stuff, but I'm just brainstorming right now.

I have a compass that is rotating depending on the position of the mouse, however it rotates it from the top left of the stage not the movie clip, how to get the AS to recognise the centre of the compass.. Also, I thought a nice touch would be if the compass had a slight "wobble"
I have this kind of menu structure design (see image attached), and the way It needs to work is when the mouse goes close to a topic it follows it and when the mouse is a certain distance away it springs back to its orginal place?

View 1 RepliesI have a graphic replacing the mouse cursor and I'm having it so that when the user goes over a MC (called hitSquare in this case) the cursor graphic moves to a certain location on the stage, then returns to the location of the real mouse position.[code]The problem with this is that during the 0.5 seconds that it takes the graphic to return to the mouse position, the user can still move the mouse, so it actually goes to different co-ordinates and when the user moves the mouse after the 0.5 is over, the cursor just jumps to the new location.How can I make it so that the graphic smoothly follows the mouse, (even if it's being moved and has to update in real time) and then returns to the standard mouse follow code (cursorMC.x = mouseX; etc) once it's met its final destination?I take it this requires some "mouse trail" code that gets removed once it's caught up with the mouse.
