ActionScript 3.0 :: F10 - Rotate Arrows On 3D Plane Towards Mouse Cursor
Nov 24, 2009
I'm trying to figure out how to rotate arrows on a 3D plane towards the mouse cursor using rotationY in Flash 10. Using the same technique as rotating towards the cursor on a 2D plane produces less than desirable results as you can see in the image below.
Code:
root.transform.perspectiveProjection.projectionCenter = new Point(stage.stageWidth/2, 0);
floor.rotationX = -90; // just a rectangle so we can see our plane
arrow1.rotationX = -90;
arrow2.rotationX = -90;
arrow3.rotationX = -90;
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,pointToMouse);
[Code] .....
The arrows seems to be focusing in on a point offset from the mouse, but I'm not sure how to compensate to get it to line up.

I'm currently implementing an 'interactive map', and I want the mouse cursor to change (from one to, two, to three arrows custom-made arrows), when the user 'mouses over' certain parts of the map. For example, there is currently 4 x3 grid on the map and when the user mouses over to each of the four corners, the cursor will change to three arrows (which have already been designed), and when the cursor mouses over the grid on the 8th grid on the right, the cursor will change to two arrows..... and so on.

I am trying to create a Flash application which will allow a user to draw arrows on the screen/canvas by using the mouse. So if they click and hold the left mouse button at coordinates 23,12 and release the left button at 84,45 a line would be drawn between the 2 points with an arrow head at the second coordinate.I also need each individual arrow to be selectable so they can be moved or deleted (I know how to do this part!).

As 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.

Waht is the right way to get 3D coords from 2D mouse coords using Away3D. (version 3.6.0) It's ambigoius problem in general, so there is restriction that 3D point belongs to some fixed plane.
There are some examples with camera.unproject and plane.getIntersectionLineNumbers methods, but they don't work if camera is rotated or plane is not trivial.

I'm making a drawing application, everythings looks and works ok, except for one thing...My mouse cursor is hidden and a paintbrush like cursor follows it. This cursor is a movieclip, because the user chooses a color, and the tip of this paintbrush changes to the selected color.But there's one problem... when I draw to the left the line is drawed with no problem, but when I draw to the right, the line is interrupted, and I don't understand why.I made one experiment, and with no movieclip "attached" to the mouse cursor, the line is drawed with no problem, both to the right and left.

I'm trying to make a dummy from a circular menu that reacts (rotate) to mouse movement, I uploaded a fla example, different colors, size, etc, but essentially the same in
function; but for now I'm freezed how to do somethings, I'm not a programer or actionscripter, but I want to learn.Currently using CS3 and AS2, downloading the FLA example may help.
Ok, in the "fla", you will see a circle who rotates versus mouse movement (I would like to make a delay rotation for a smooth feelling when mouse is moving, those like "_x += (_xmouse/5)" but with rotation. Other thing I would like to do,is... that the movement stops progressively a few degrees before the mouse reach de cian angles(a1,a2), and then, the circles doesn't move if the mouse is moving under those angles, like a... an inactive area(U1), and if it could work with instances.

I am having problems finding a way to rotate an object with mouse movement when the mouse is down, and stop the rotation when the mouse is released.
I can do drag and drop ok but this doesn't help at all.

I have created a small flash movie where the eyes of the character follow the cursor. Its based on this one here Only problem is, it only works while the mouse is actually over the movie. Is there any way to increase the sensitive area to the whole screen without increasing the actual size of the movie?

I made a game in AS2 where the player rotates towards the mouse, then discovered you need AS3 for 3D things(which I plan to add later) so I re-made the game in AS3. I think I can more or less do the rest of it but the rotation is driving me crazy. This code works fine in AS2 but when I try it in AS3 it completely fails. The player just wobbles about a 90 degree radius.

I'm using the following code to rotate a MC on the Y axis that stops at a certain point. Is there any way to do the same using the tween class so it has a softer finish.
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, mcRotation);
function mcRotation(event:Event):void
{
var controller:Number = mouseX - stage.stageWidth * 0.5

i'm trying to build a "circular" menu that rotate on rollover and mouse move but with no good results. Just something like the yugo sliding menu but with buttons placed around a circonference.I don't need a dinamic menuI need a function that let the menu rotate up when cursor is below the half of the circle and viceversa.I've done a search and found a compass example but i really can't edit it. I'm a newbee and can't really figure out how to rotate a movie clip around its own axes on mouse move..

I want to rotate a movie clip with the mouse and I have this code:[code]Neither looks like what I want. The first image is okay until its rotated, and the second is blurry but looks better than the first when its rotating.So I have two questions.Is there a way to get better image quality when my image is rotating with out using a bitmap?Can some one give me a code example that changes the frame in the symbol based on the position of the cursor to the symbol?

I'm using the code 'rotate towards the mouse' from [URL].. It works fine to rotate the clip, but there's two things I'd like to have happen here: 1. At a certain angle of rotation, the MC that is following the mouse reflects horizontally. example: a profile of a head is following the mouse. i don't want the head to be upside down when the mouse reaches the back of the head, but rather the head flips over to watch the mouse.
2. Boundaries: is there some way to set up the code so that the MC stops following the mouse when it reaches a certain position on the Y-axis?

I have a mc that I want to continously rotate, I want it to rotate in whatever direction the mouse is from the center of the mc. If the user pulls the mouse out I would like for it to speed up and slow down accordingly.If this is not possible, I wouldnt cry. Any way when the user goes over a desiginated area I would like for the motion to stop until they pull away again.How would I go about doing this.I've seen this thread but don't understand where to attach the script, and I also need the stopping script
