I have a clip of a small person 'flying', following the mouse coordinates. Its a 2d image facing a to one side. how I can determine when the mouse is moving right or left so that I can trigger the icon to 'flip' and face the other direction.

I wanna detect the direction of mouse movement. If the mouse moves tpwards the left or right of its currrent position, i want to detect it. Is there anyway to identify such movement. Actually i am implementing a 360 degree rotation of image. That means , if the mouse moves along the left side of its current position, then the image should move along its left side, otherwise it should move along the right side. For example, view this site: [URL]
View 4 RepliesIs there a way to determine the direction in which the mouse-cursor is moving (up/down)?
Kinda like a constant listener, or something.
I only know about the onMouseMove-function, but it doesnt seem to come with parameters for direction.
Maby there is something that can be done with the:
_ymouse
..parameter. Something similar to:
_ymouse ++;
..to indicate the mouse-cursor is moving downwards.

View 5 RepliesI would like to know how to perform a check on the direction of the movement of the mouse on stage like let us say considering the stage.height/2 as the center if the mouse moves up it should trace up and down if it moves down... I did it by storing all the _ymouse coordinates in temp array and chking if temp[i]>temp[i-1] but it doesn't work satisfactorily. i am posting the script i made...i do admit i am very bad in calculations so correct me if i went wrong somewhere

What I really want to know is how to rotate the symbol based on direction of mouse movement

View 2 Repliesi have a scroller developed in as2. it basically scrolls continuously in a direction until the direction of the mouse is changed. the images of course loop in the continuous scroll. now the problem is that for 10-15 photos its ok. but when i feed it with 180 photos, it seems to show only 11. why would this be? any restriction on flash ??
View 1 Replieshave a ball with the name of mc which can be moved using the keyboard .. when you press the left mouse button shoots the ball, this ball and the other flies in the face where the cursor was in the shot .. but if you move the cursor to another location and shoot a second time then the second ball is also flying in the direction of the cursor and the first ball change direction toward a second shot ..

Flex Effects include "isPlaying" property to check whether Effect is currently playing or not. But is there a way to find out what is the direction of playback (whether the play was started with playReversedFromEnd)?
View 1 RepliesI posted a thread last week and I get a code that give me possibility to move circle in the stage and when it got to the end of the stage it turn around and change it's way. but the code was only for X direction but I want to use it in Y direction too, to move the circle diagonal. I put the code down here. me to add Y position guide me how to add.

thats my basic Arrow key functions to move a movie clip lp_mc is my character in the left position so when left key is pressed it moves forwards but when right is presssed it moves backwards... i have a movieclip called rp_mc which is the same thing but facing the other way when right is pressed how do i swap the lp_mc for rp_mc so it changes direction?
Working on a maze game. When the leftkey is pressed the movieclip (char) should turn 90 degrees to the left.
char.scaleX *= -1;
However, the most important thing is that the character doesnt go through the walls of the maze.And I think thats my problem for implementing the code above.Because it doesnt work properly when i put in here;
if(!mazehit) {
char.y += speed;
char.scaleX *= -1;[code].....
Random Movement: Flip horizontal on direction change along x

View 4 RepliesI have a mc (fStrip) which looks like a piece of filmstrip with thumbnail images in it. I want this mc to move when the users mouse is positioned over it, but I only want it to move only along it's x-axis and in a direction opposite that of the mouse. And I want it to move or flow smoothly.
I've been trying to figure this out (see my lame attempt below) but without much luck.
onClipEvent (mouseMove) {
buffer=20 //movement buffer
mousePos=_root.fStrip._xmouse //store mouse position
if (mymouse!=_root.fStrip._xmouse){ //if the mouse has moved

I designed a horizontally oriented page that expands to the right. The problem is, the content goes off the screen.
I want to know how to make all of the content on the website scroll with the mouse direction like this webpage- sectionseven.com
Does anybody know how to do this or something similar?
Im looking for a quick solution (if its out there) using the autohide feature using the FLV Playback Component.
Current situation: Using ActionScript 2. The FLV component fills the stage. Autohide is set to true.
It looks to me that since the video fills the stage, the skin will not hide. What I would like to do is have the skin fade out if the mouse doesnt move for a certain period of time.

so basically I have a circle which I got to spin around and stop when the mouse is over it. However I now need it to also spin Anti-Clockwise if the mouse is near the top of the page and clockwise if the mouse is at the bottom of the page.
Can anyone help? I did the animation through tweening in flash so my code is tiny, but here's what it is. I'm new to flash so forgive me if I don't know what I'm doing.

View 5 RepliesI'm building a simple 360 degree image rotation effect using single frames and forward and back buttons. I'm new to AS3 and have managed to create functioning buttons... (so my code may be a bit odd!)But now I also want to advance frames by clicking and dragging on the image itself (or on an invisible button sat on top of the image).Although there are some threads here which have asked the same thing, I don't understand how they were answered. My code is below, and the file I am practising with is on:URL...At the moment if you click on the image area it will advance but as there is no code detecting mouse direction, it just goes forward. Can anyone help me understand how to implement a simple direction detection and then use this to decided whether to advance or go backwards.[code]
