i'm a design student who is relatively new to actionscript. So anyway, i'm trying to make an effect whereby the cursor, whch is a pen, is moving on the canvas and leaving a trail of ink as it moves.
View 2 Repliesin a nut shell I have found this wicked piece of open source actionscript.
It responds to the cursor and was wondering if it is posible to modify the x_position and y_position actions and make the action respond to a moving object???? (a movieclip with a variable name)
is this to complicated to attempt or is it doable??

Is it possible to make a custom cursor with restraints (meaning you only see the cursor when you put your mouse in a certain spot, by defining both the max and min of the x & y), that is placed inside a movie clip; then make the movie clip move on the stage when you click certain buttons.

View 3 RepliesI have a button_mc and within this button is another MC with a masked graphic to create a shine effect. My problem is that when this shine effect passes over the button and hits the mouse cursor it causes the button to deactivate. Is there a way for me to have the shine_mc within the button_mc be ignored by the mouse completely?

View 11 RepliesI want to make a mc stick to a cursor from the start and then drop the mc.So far I know how to make a mc follow the cursor and drag and drop a mc.I need an AS3 code for "dropping" a mc at a position (cursor must transform into regular arrow again)The position the cursor needs to snap to is another mc - it should be the nearest, so the distance needs to be measured. So the position is not a grid, but the mc's is can be dropped onto are always on the same positions.

I'm creating a simple shooter game and I've replaced the mouse cursor with a custom one. It works good but my monsters appear above the cursor. How do I make the cursor always remain on the top most level/layer?
View 15 Repliesobj1 is on top of obj2, covering it. obj2 has buttonMode set to true (so that it gives the mouse a hand cursor on mouseover). And obj2 has MouseEvent listeners, etc. But since obj1 is covering obj2, you can't actually click/mouseover obj2. How do I make it so that the mouse ignores obj1 and is able to interact with obj2 even though it is being covered?
View 3 RepliesI want to make a button that will go to the next frame after the cursor is over it for 5 secs.
View 1 RepliesI sometimes replace the mouse cursor with a custom one by doing:
Code:
Mouse.hide();

I've made a 30 second *.avi file and converted it to SWF
And then I remembered I need to put link inside the Flash so I decompiled it and put this in *.fla file;
Code:
onMouseDown = function(){
my_url = "http://www.link.link";
getURL("http://www.link.link","_blank");
};
But that doesn't make mouse pointer change to hand when it's over the banner.
having trouble with this .fla (attached) i have an object on the stage and I want to be able to make it repel the mouse cursor, similar to a magnet, so you cant get near it...

I've got a dynamic text box on a movie clip that I'm using as a button (for a slider). To be specific, it's a movie clip on the stage that has a MOUSE_DOWN event listener applied to it. There's a circle in the movie clip and a dynamic text box in the movie clip right in the middle of the circle
The text field is set to NOT be selectable, the font is embedded, buttonMode and useHandCursor are set to true. I get a hand cursor when my cursor hits the outside of the circle, but once it hits the text field in the middle, the hand cursor goes away. how I can make the hand cursor stick? I've considered replacing the dynamic text field with a movie clip that has a timeline full of numbers, but that would be giving up.
