Is it possible to trigger an action with rapid mouse movement? This is my script

Is it possible to change the 'release' with an action that refers to rapid mouse movement?this object is following your mouse(cursor), but when I quickly move the mouse I have to loose the object.
I have this flash file, and I need it to start on mouse over event. No links or url pages! Simply start playing. How do I do that? I figured how to stop it from topic below.
View 7 RepliesI am looking for a script to detect if the mouse has not moved for say 15 seconds or 30 seconds, and if this is the case then, its plays some movie-clip or follows with the next scene.
View 3 RepliesI've been trying to solve this problem for a number of days now but I must be missing something.
Known Variables:
vi = Initial Velocity
t = Animation Duration
d = Distance.
end velocity should always be zero
The function I'm trying to create: D(0...t) = the current distance for a given time
Using this information I want to be able to create a smooth animation curve with varying velocity (ease-in/ease-out).
The animation must be able ease-in from an initial velocity.
The animation must be exactly t seconds and must be travel exactly d units.
The curve should lean towards the average velocity with acceleration occurring at the beginning and the end portions of the curve.
I'm open to extra configuration variables.
The best I've been able to come up with is something that doesn't factor in the initial velocity.
I'm looking for the way to make a change of velocity between two o more points... I've an aircraft flying on the sky and it's following a bezier curve based on an array that contains several points (x,y)...So..i need to make a change in a from a determined point to the end, o just to another point ( think...that this Aircraft will be crash with another, so i need the params to avoid the collision.

I'm having some problems when adding multiple instances of a movie clip then controlling their movement. I had it working fine when I was only adding one child. With the code I currently have 20 versions of the movieclip are added to the screen but don't more. I just want them to float up and once out of screen new ones added.
Code:
private function addBubbles():void {
var list:Array=[];
for (var i:int=0; i<20; i++) {
var newBubble:bubbleMC = new bubbleMC();

I am trying to help my colleague figure out how to make a button act like the Mac buttons do. In other words, when your mouse gets closer to a button, they will steadily grow larger. He found a piece of code, so i put it in my FLA file, closed my eyes, then peeked and hoped it worked. It didn't.
I have attached the FLA to this message. If you remove the top portion of the code [the portion between the // lines], you will see the file works fine as the buttons will advance frames. But when i put the top piece of code back [the piece my colleague gave me] i get error messages.bottom line is - what we're trying to do is make those triangle buttons "grow" as the mouse moves closer to them [like Mac buttons do].
Hey, i know this has been asked before, but i couldnt find it anywhere. Is there any way to get an action when you right click your mouse in flash?
View 14 RepliesI have a code that i took from a file and i would like to modify one thing. The code below allows mouse movements to scroll multiple layers at different paces. The problem is that i want to limit the mouse movement area to just a center rectangle and not the entire stage. Is there something in the code below that would allow me to "define an area" for mouse movements to activate the layer scrolls.[code]
View 9 RepliesWe got an object tweening from point A to point B, and we can learn a few things from it using the onUpdate function.The program can be constantly storing it's actual x/y position and compare it to the previous position, versus time elapsed.I've seen several approaches but none seemed very impressive.Also, perhaps there is an engine (or more) that can return the object's current speed via the unUpdate function.How would YOU retrieve the object's current speed/velocity (pixels per second or millisecond) during a tween ?
View 11 RepliesSo I did a tutorial on advanced buttons and I followed them to the "T" and I got the point where I am to hit CTL-Enter and it opens up into a small view window but when I run my mouse over the button the action doesn't ocure. Everything else works exactly like it's supose to except that.

I often have an function / action that is performed on a mouse event (say, MouseEvent.CLICK) that has to be moved to:
happen inside of an animation (at a given frame label) happen at an event (say, Event.COMPLETE)happen when another item is added to the stage or removed from the stage What is the best OOP way to encapsulate such activities so that I am not constantly rewriting my code?
By the way, I should also mention that this function also being moved from one display object to another, not the just event that it is listening for...

My file has four hexagons that normally get bigger or smaller in response to MOUSE_OVER and MOUSE_OUT behavior. Trouble is, when the file opens, I need one of them to expand independent of any user interaction, just the once, and reduce size whenever anything _else_ is moused over, just the once. Then the whole thing can go back to normal.
I'm trying to look through code examples, but I'm getting lost in people talking about packages and custom events and so forth that I don't understand (remember: designer here!). Can someone at least help me break down the concept?
This is what I have, which probably isn't the most succinct thing on earth but works for the mouseovers and for stacking the items properly, since they overlap a bit (the playHexIn and Outs just go to tweens iin the timelines of each hexagon, making them bigger or smaller):
Code:
var maxIndex:Number = this.numChildren - 1;
hex1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER,sendToTop);
hex2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER,sendToTop);[code]....

I've got a flash movie that is a menu with a photo that is approximatly 700x300. I want an action that will trigger when the mouse leaves the flash movie all together. Is this possibe? Is there a way to have have my movie know when the mouse is not in it and trigger something?

View 7 RepliesI'm experiencing an annoying issue with a movie clip button. The movie clip is linked to a class which adds a rollover and rollout effect. The issue I'm having is that, even though the button is in frame 1, the button doesn't react to the mouse for some seconds into the movie. The only thing I can think is that it's the class itself, but I'm not certain. Here's the class:-

I have three buttons on screen that navigate to different places on the timeline. I have set them all up as buttons using a generic button in the library and then given them all different instance names. I selected the button and changed the text colour for each state in the timeline (up, over, down) to keep it simple. The buttons are all, as far as I can analyse, identical in all but instance name.
When I test the movie, the first button changes text colour on 'over' and, when I click (i.e. down state) the colour changes again as designed. The navigation action doesn't occur until I release the mouse button, giving the feel of having 'clicked' the button.
With the other two buttons, which have been set up as far as I can tell in exactly the same way, when the down state occurs, I see a momentary flash of the text colour change and it performs the nav straight away. I really want it to perform the same way as the first button but cannot for the life of me see why they're behaving differently.
what the actionscript would be to make a button be clicked and held down with the mouse a certain amount of seconds before executing an action???
View 8 Repliesi'm trying to use "Enter" key to act as mouse click, so when user press "Enter", it's like left clicking mouse to open a new link. i use the following:
------------------------------
if (key.getCode()==key.ENTER){
getURL(".....url.......", _blank);
}
------------------------------
it doesn't seem to work. nothing happen when press "Enter".
Code:
_root.navigationMC.onPress = function() {
startPreload("blue.swf");
}
If I wanted to change an action from a button click to a frame-based action, what do I use instead of onPress? The hints from the AS editor are all click-based.
I have a slideshow that is looped ... it contains 5 slides.I am using a gotoandPlay action to control the slide show.
on (release) {
this._parent.gotoAndPlay("98");
}
There is a fade transition between slides.When a button is released ... I want to gotoandPlay (frame 98) ... and then have it stop 10 frames later on (frame 108). Frame 98 includes the transition ... if I just gotoandStop on frame 108 ... I loose the transition.Is there any way to incorporate a stop action, after a gotoandPlay action on my button ... without naming instances etc.I.E.
on (release) {
this._parent.gotoAndPlay("98");
STOP ON FRAME 108 INTEGRATED HERE
}
Everything I have attempted is not working.
I just want to make a simple button action using actionscript 2 but I can't get it to work! I'm sorry for even asking but I've been at this for too long now for it to not work I'm using Adobe Flash CS4 and I do the following --
File -> New Flash File (ActionScript 2.0)
Insert -> New Symbol
Name - test
Type - button
Export for ActionScript
Identifier - test
And then draw it in using the keyframes and add the code to 'Actions - Button' for my button
Code:
on(release) {
trace("trace");
}
I click on the button and it animates but no action event in the trace?
How can I get an action to follow another action when a button is clicked? When a button is clicked, I want the timeline to go to a certain frame and play and when it's done playing, to go to another frame and play. I basically want two actions in one function.
