You know how some flash sites have navigation buttons and everytime you put your mouse over the other navigation button there is a line or an "element" that comes and follows the mouse and stays under that navigation options?
View 6 RepliesI'm trying to modify a mouse trailer I've found somewhere else so that it only reacts within a specific area on the flash page - say an area 780x549 on a 1024x700 flash file.Here is the code I am starting with - The file is written in AS2 for Flash 8+
//mouseTrailer
i=0
onMouseMove = function () {
var cur_x = _xmouse;
[code]...
how to create a mouse trailer in AS2 that gives the effect of the mouse "drawing on the screen", and fading out after a short period of time?

Recently I was using the mouse trailer script on the site but cannot figure out how to change the color of the text from black to white. I tried putting in letterformat.color = "FFFFFF"; but it didn't work.
Here is the script for the mouse trailer.
Text = "Kirupa has the best site on the net!!!";
letters = Text.split("");
letterformat = new TextFormat();

View 5 RepliesIm trying to create a spraycan that when the user holds down the left mouse button, creates foam movieclips at its point.
Im using startdrag to enable the can to be a cursor.
I was trying to put some script to the actual foam MC and have it triggering on mousedown. I guess Im not getting the code right:
onClipEvent(mouseDown) {
mc_foam.duplicateMovieClip("newfoam"+i, i);
_root["newfoam"+i]._x=_xmouse;
_root["newfoam"+i]._y=_ymouse;
}
hey, i'm trying to create a list by duplicating buttons, and then when these buttons are clicked, they load a movie
so far here's my script in a frame
[AS]
text1 = "link1";
text2 = "link2";
[Code]...
however this doesn't work too well, the position of new buttons dont really go where they are supposed to go (which should be directly under each other). neither does the entering of the text in the new button work.
I create a button(MC) and want to duplicate it and easily change the text inside this button... basically I have an mc that acts as a button so inside the mc I have text that I added that animates on mouse rollover. Now I duplicate this mc in the library go into the mc and want to change the text, and when I do, the text in the original button also changes. This happens because the text is a Tween so it's using the same tween from the library for the new button. Is there a quick way to avoid this? I don't see anyway other than typing in the text again in the new button and animating it again.

View 1 RepliesI've been reading a lot about the benefits of Object Pooling. Found some "tutorials" online, all above my skill level. Can anyone please show me an extremely simple example of an Object Pool. What my game does is creates Ball objects when the user holds down the mouse, stops when user lifts up mouse. I need to store these Ball objects in an array(or Vector), and hit test them with other objects, removing them from the stage when the hit another object. I'd like to create a pool of say 20 of so, created once, and recycle them.

I have a problem with a FlvPlayBack movie. So when I load the .swf, and click "Play Trailer" locally it works perfectly. But when I load the .html page, and click "Play trailer" the player doesn't show up and it won't play the video.
Link to .html page What files exactly need to be on my server in order for the video to play? Have I called the video wrong? (the .flv file is on my server)
What is the best way to create a 2D plot, with different points in different coordinates (x/y coordinates) such that they are represented using different shapes on the plot, and whenever we click on one of them, or go with mouse over them, we see a text changing in a small window next to the plot?
If I could do this in HTML, that would be great.If there is a generic Flash component that could do that, simply by loading some text data from URL, that would be IDEAL.
I am creating a calendar and would like to be able to hover mouse over an event and it say text. The calander is saved as a PDF so it is only a picture.

View 3 Repliesit might sound weird but what i need is... Create a movieclip, with an instance name, when i click with my mouse left button, anywhere i click! i don't even know if it's possible(Anyway if you wonder why i need this, i'll explain:in a certain level of my game, you play with a m�ssile launcher, and there's enemies in front of you, when you "fire" against them, (so, when you left click) your pointer (or mouse arrow) create's a movieclip that is an explosion, and, if this explosion hit's the enemies, they die
View 2 RepliesI write some working code that creates a circle on mouse click with a radius of 5 and with a random colour each time...I have the code to create the circle and the code for the random colour here:
var myColour:Number = Math.floor(Math.random()*0xFFFFFF);
this.graphics.beginFill(myColour);
this.graphics.drawCircle(0, 0, 10);
this.graphics.endFill();
Essentially I want to create a Flash application that places random coloured circles with a radius of 5 on the stage with a centre location of the mouse position each time a user clicks.
i hav been tryin to create a drunk effect using an mc as a mouse but as the person gets drunker the movie clip sways more and more creating the drunk effect the user has to try n control the drunk twat as the swaying increases
now i hav a fair understanding on how to do this even tho im new to programming to increase and decrease the _x axis as the time increases but it has to increment randomly on the minus and plus of the x axis one after the other .
I am using the following code in order to create an effect when the mouse moves:
Code:
var count = 0;

I would also like to do that when the mouse cursor is still.
I'm interested in learning how to create a "3d" object that a user can interact with using their mouse. I've taken 60+ pictures of a camera rotating by 5 degree increments and I'm trying to put together something similar to what Verizon has on their website for phones - Where your mouse rolls over an object and rotates it.
I've seen this done with Java as well, but I'm interested in how flash does it.
I want to create a class where when you mouse click on an instance of it, all other instances are notified about this click.
I want this functionality to be inside the class so there wll be no need to write any code outside the class definition, like assigning listeners to all instances and such.I wrote the following code but the event I dispatch doesn't get catched.
package sample{ import flash.events.EventDispatcher; import flash.events.MouseEvent; import flash.display.MovieClip; import flash.events.Event; public class labels extends MovieClip { var dispatcher:EventDispatcher = new EventDispatcher(); public function labels() { this.buttonMode = true;
