How can i make an object following my cursor ( but not directly) through a specific path ( something like a city plan) and every time my cursor change location the object would change path so it will stop where my cursor is?

View 9 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?

I want to check if my mouse is hovering over a specific object.
What is it called?
I am trying to get an object to follow the mouse cursor only when the cursor is within a certain range of the object.
I would also like the object to stop when the cursor is directly over it, so that it becomes a selectable button.
Lastly, I would like to apply this to many objects, that don't overlap, but rather, "bounce off" of one another. An example of this is at

The code I have so far is:
ball_mc.onEnterFrame = function() {

"ball_mc" of course, is the instance name of the object that I have created.

Basically, i have an empty stage, but for 2 objects a custom cursor (using the onclipevent mouse move, cursor hide, startdrag etc) and a movie clip of a little man (stick figure for now) all i want to do is, when i bring the cursor to the man and hold down on him, the cursor will goto frame 2, which will make it appear that the man i sitting on the cursor. at the same time the man symbol will be invisible and draggable. so that when i release the drag, the man will be put down somewhere else.

I'm trying to make a game that looks low-resolution, and thus I'm upscaling everything by 2x. However, the game is to have a custom cursor, and it ruins the illusion if the cursor follows your mouse every pixel. I want the cursor to follow your mouse, but to snap to every two pixels so as to not ruin the illusion of low resolution.
View 1 RepliesI want the cursor to disappear when it rolls over an object, then reappear when it rolls off. It works when I run it in Flash, it works when I view the html in Internet Explorer, it DOESN'T work in Netscape. The cursor disappears and doesn't come back till you move it out of the navigator window. Here's the code:
on (rollOver) {
loadMovie("movie.swf", place);
mouse.hide();
} on (rollOut) {
loadMovie("blank_movie.swf", place);
mouse.show();
}

View 2 RepliesI was wondering if there was a way of making your mouse cursor stick to an object for a period of time when clicked?
eg. If i clicked "about" then the mouse would stick to that button while it slid to a new location on the stage. Once the tweening stops, you can move the mouse again.
What do you do when you code as always, but some folks report that the mouse cursor does not become a hand to indicate link behavior? Also, how can I make the cursor change to a big arrow? Flash CS3, Mac AS 2
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'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.
