i have some dynamic text inside a moive clip which is supposed to hold the users' mouse x/y.my code is
_root.findx = _root._xmouse;
_root.findy = _root._ymouse;
my problem is how can i make the clip update itself so that everytime the mouse moves the code will change?
i feel bad abt posting this question, but idk what the problem is.
I have MC masked with TEXT,when the user moves his mouse down more text appears from the bottom and when he moves it goes bakc to the original position...I do not want the mouse wheel .. I woudl like to do it by mouse hovering...

the preceding works exactly as i want it to.. the catch is, it only does so in it's own swf.. meaning, i want to use it as an external swf embedded in another movie... when it's on it's own, the panning will stop if the edge of mc hits the border, when it's called externally the panning won't stop!
i feel like i've tried everything i can (obviously not!).. where you see 521 and 315 there WAS Stage.width/height and that code was on the external swf itself, in an attempt to stop the panning when it should i tried putting the code in the parent movie and changing some variables, which worked the same with no avail.
here's a link if my babbling wasn't clear enough: [URL] also.. i would like for it to pan only if the mouse moves over the panning clip, it currently pans based on where the mouse is over the parent movie.. i've made multiple attempts at changing this as well, with no luck.
I am trying to make a flash game for a website. In the game, there is a large interactive map which I created. The map is supposed to scroll just by moving the mouse.
As a placeholder for the map, an ex-coworker created a gradient background, which moves along with the mouse. Here is the AS.
// Width and height of image
var w = Stage.width * 2;
var h = Stage.height * 2;
// Mock up graphic that will be the image

how to make the MC move and pan along with the mouse? Even if it is a completely different code?
i am trying to find out how i would make an image pan right and left and up and down following the movements of the mouse. so when you move your mouse to the right the image moves to the right, same for other movements.
has anyone seen any scripts i could use or knw the code. happy to donate to paypal for the code.
I have the following script on a movie clip which fades the clip in when your mouse is over the MC and fades it out when your mouse moves off. It works fine, but it "flickers" when its faded in all the way. How can I stop that?

I have a component A in my flex project where people can vote for their favourite artist. Someone "likes" an artist, it get's updated in my database. There is also a component B that shows a chart of the most liked artists. I call the data from the database on creationcomplete in Flex. The problem is that when a person first votes on an artist, it will not be visible in the datagrid untill the user reloads the main page (?) or reopens the entire application. So i was wondering how i can update the datagrid everytime someone adds a vote to my database. I'm now using an update button, but that's not very user friendly of course.
View 4 RepliesTo start things off, I use Flash CS3.moving menu that moves on its own when the mouse moves around it. Like the menu moves up when the mouse moves down.[URL]i have found similar tutorials for what i wanted.. but they are AS2 or older versions of flash..and what i needed is more along the lines of AS3 as that's what my class is learning and using.Does anyone know of an AS3 or anything that works with Flash CS3 tutorial thats what I'm asking?

I am trying to create a code such that everytime a button is pressed a random number is generated between 0-14. With each of the 15 numbers (0-14) only being hit 10 times. I know how to create buttons and all that, its the random number thing thats stopping me.I created it using arrays in another programing language and tried to translate it to flash but I was unsuccessful. this is generally what i got
ActionScript Code:
var events:Array = new Array();
var order:Array = new Array();
var used:Array = new Array();

I use movie clip as a button. Inside movie clip there are two movie clip, each one for a separated condition. On mouse over it goes on white one.On mouse out it returns on blue one.If it is pressed it stays white.Mouse out doesn't fire every time. It is placed on the white movie clip. It fires in 90 percent.Movie clip contains shape and two images inside.

View 1 RepliesAs of Flash 10.2, Flash supports hardware accelerated mouse cursors:[URL]..Unfortunately, the mouse cursor doesn't update until AFTER the mouse moves. You can see this behavior on the web page above. If you click "Set to custom cursor" in the sample app at the bottom of the article, you'll see that the cursor doesn't change until you move the mouse.
Anyone have a trick for updating the mouse cursor immediately, before the user moves the mouse? I tried doing Mouse.hide(); Mouse.show(); but that doesn't work.
i'm making an accordion menu with tweenlite, the menu works, but i want to know how can i make the code simpler for the relative position of each movie clip, i create a variable and override the variable inside the function for each movie, there is a better way to do it?[code]

instead of moving to 'distance' and staying there, the MC moves back and forth once it reaches it's destination. this is because even when _x = distance, the first if statement (_x<distance) keeps executing. At first I thought this didn't make any sense, and there has to be a reasonable explanation. I've managed to isolate and even solve the problem, but the mystery remains:

im talking about the way the MC moves from left to right while stationary...based on mouse movement, anyone have any ideas what this function is called but more effectively, WHEre i can find a tut or something?

View 1 RepliesI'm working on a tank game for my Flash class that has a cannon that's supposed to rotate with the mouse. Unfortunately I can't get the rotation to work properly.
Firstly the cannon does not follow the mouse in full 360 degrees and does this weird rubberbanding "bounce" back to a previous position. Secondly when it does follow it does so in the opposite direction in which the mouse is moved.
The cannon is a movie clip and nothing is put on the stage (this is done by the code itself). Everything is located in the library and all the coding is done through AS files.
My experience with coding in flash is minimal, the past couple of weeks being my first exposure to it, just to give you an idea where I stand. Below is the code for cannon.
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;

Been working on this for almost 2 weeks and I am completely stuck. I've got a main dynamic movie clip that pulls in images from an xml file. It's x position moves depending on the mouse position. Obviously its width is dependent on how many images are pulled in.
I have an indicator movie clip that runs along a 600 pixel line in the opposite direction to the main clip that gives an indication of how long the main clip is.
I know the length of the indicator's line so its x position needs to be updated in relation to the x position of the main clip. 1% of indicator's maximum movement in 6 pixels so it needs to move 6 pixels in relation to 1% of main movie clips maximum distance.

View 1 RepliesI'm currently working on a portfolio-website in Flash CS5. Everything is good so far,but my only problem is the image gallary. My idea is that when the visitor moves the mouse over one of the images, a hover effect will activate - which is does. The only problem now is that I can't get the images to show in a big format when you click on each of them, for a better view of the image.[URL]..
View 28 RepliesThis probably will be very easy for some, but I am stuck on this. I have a map in a movieclip(mc_map) on stage and a small square which acts as a mask to the really bigger size of the same map. What I am want to do is that when I move the mouse on the mc_map(eg: say my cursor is on New York), the small sqaure window will unhide the same area, or will move that bigger image such that the same area is shown under the square mask. I also want to add another cursor(or crosshair) to the stage which is live only in the area of the square and replicates the position of mouse on map.

I'm triggering the appearance of a tooltip via MOUSE_OVER on a button and I'm finding it keeps getting triggered if I keep the mouse pointer over the tooltip. Both the tooltip and button are MovieClips
How can I prevent this?
Here's a snippet of my code:

var Country:MovieClip = MapContainer.getChildAt(i) as MovieClip;

I have two movie clips on top of each other. The one underneath is a button and the first movieclip is not always no top of it so everything is fine, the bottom one listens for Clicks and Mouse.ROLL_OVER just fine. However whenever the first movie clip moves and happens to stop overtop the button, that is where the problems begin.
Is there any way for me to make the movie clip on top somehow cause the ROLL_OVER to get through to the underlying movie clip as well as the clicks?
