ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Buttons With Custom Mouse Cursor
Oct 29, 2010
I'm trying to convert my sniper game to as3 but coming up with the problem of evt.target hitting the scope crosshairs (the cursor) and not bubbling down to the stick man.[ode]I've come up with two solutions but they both negatively impact the accuracy and game play.
1. use objectHitTest, this works but makes it frustrating to hit small objects
2. make a small hole in the scope, this would probably work but could also cause problems

I'm working on my personal portfolio site and desperately need help with some AS3. my knowledge about AS3 is very rudimentary. Hope anyone who's I want to change the pointer cursor to custom movieclip when mouseover different invisible buttons. These buttons are mainly forward & backward button for my gallery. I got some help from other site but still unsolved. Please take a look at my fla attachment to point out what's wrong with the coding. To elaborate a little bit more as what I wish to achieve you can take a look at the sample URL...I just need the pointer cursor to turn to custom mc when it mouseover the hit area of the respective buttons.

I have made custom mouse cursor (movie clip) everything works fine, default cursor is hidden, mc is following pointer, problem is- when flash is inactive custom cursor hangs in upper left corner of flash, I want to make it dissapear untill the moment you enter flash file. That would work like this: I am opening my web page, flash is loaded but custom cursor is hidden, I am moving my mouse into zone of flash -custom cursor appears on screen and follows mouse pointer.

I have created a file where I have a custom mouse cursor using the following code:
Mouse.hide(); cursor_mc.startDrag(true); I have the mouse cursor in its own layer on the main timeline. In a layer below this one I have a movieclip symbol that when clicked I want to move to frame two of its own timeline and play.
The code I use for this is inside the movieclip symbol itself and it is:
squaremc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndPlayFromFrame_2);
function fl_ClickToGoToAndPlayFromFrame_2(event:MouseEvent) :void
{
gotoAndPlay(2);
}
The problem is the darn thing only works when the cursor symbol is in a layer below the movieclip on the main timeline and not in a layer above the movieclip on the main timeline. It wont even work when the custom cursor is in the same layer as the movieclip symbol.
Is there a work around to this or something else I could try. In actioscript 2.0 this never was a problem.

I have a problem with flickering mouse custom cursor. I have a timeline which is my main clip and I want to show a pencil like cursor when I am over the timeline movie clip. I am using standard Mouse events, MOUSE_OVER and MOUE_OUT, MOUSE_MOVE. Also I use Mouse.hide()/show() functions to show and hide the mouse.Also the same principal or the pencil movie clip which I show and Hide.
On MOUSE_MOVE is set the coordinates of the pencil movieclip to be those on the Mouse cursor. How ever I get a flickering of the mouse and the pencil movieclip while above the timeline movieclip. So they change from one to another all the time without stopping i.e filckering.

When I add a custom cursor it won't draw because when the mouse is down it's referencing the cursor and not the board. So drawing doesn't = true.
I can fix it by changing the eventlisteners to "stage" instead of "mBoard" but when I do that it will draw the the coordinates of where the mouse is on the cursor and the board.
So the Cursor could be x= 255 and y = 200 it will draw that coordinate but it will also draw the coordinate of where the mouse is over the cursor which could be x = 1 and y = 1. It will also draw that on the drawBoard.
Here are the examples in case I didn't make myself clear.
example 1 example 2
Here is the simplified code
Code:
package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;

I have made a script for a custom cursor, but the only problem is that when I hover the cursor over a button, the button shows on top of it and the cursor hides underneath and you can't really see what you're trying to click.
Here is my script:
Code:
onEnterFrame = function() {
cursor._x = _xmouse;
cursor._y = _ymouse;
Mouse.hide();
}
(The instance's name is "cursor")

I've been searching around and can't find the solution to my problem. (firstly AS3.0 still confuses the hell out of me, having some real trouble getting my head around it).I've added a custom mouse cursor on my file, but with AS3.0 it already uses Mouse.Hide(); to hide the original mouse cursor and replace it with a symbol/mc.But i was already using both Mouse.Hide(); and Mouse.Show(); to hide the mouse at specific times. (so this new cursor has messed all that up).

I need to show different custom pointer when mouseover 2 different invisible buttons. These are next and back buttons which cover the entire left and right part of the stage. How this can be done in as3? Or is there a better way of doing it? I checked out the import flash.ui adobe live doc but can't quite make head and tail of it. I guess the example shown is only to change to custom cursor for entire stage.

I have a menu for a website in flash where, an mc moves up and down and shoots...so that when the projectile MC hits a button, it clicks it.
1.) How do I make it so that the MC follows the mouse (like a custom cursor)..but is restricted to only going vertically
2.) how would you make it so that the mc can shoot anywhere....but when the fired MC hits a button, it acts as if it was clicked? My AS knowledge...is..very basic...so if you have any free time could you explain the codes?...so that I can learn from this...rather then just stealing your codes... but..if you want to just let me copy and paste...thats cool too

I need to hide my mouse and have a bullseye movie clip as a custom cursor. The problem is, I also need to click on things, and the code that I found on forums to create a custom cursor blocks the mouse from clicking on anything.
Mouse.hide();
var cursor_mc = new crosshairs();
this.parent.addChild(cursor_mc);
cursor_mc.startDrag(true);
Is there a way to do a custom cursor that acts the same way as the mouse usually does?

Having a problem with part of a project that I know is something small that I omitted someplace relating to mouseEnabled or mouseChildren, but I think I have tried everything and nothing seems to work.I set up a demo FLA that replicates the issue somewhat here (remove spaces)- t i n y u r l . com/4429vbx
Basically, I have a little game that involves finding things in an image with a custom mouse cursor that is a magnifying glass. One large image over a smaller version of the same image, the cursor masks the large image. There's a bunch of Math figuring out the movement/positioning of the large image on MOUSE_MOVE to match up with what you are mousing over in the smaller one, and I have a Rollover/Rollout on the smaller image to swap the cursor in/out. The problem started when I put 5 invisible buttons down inside the large image. You get cursor flicker when rolling over the invisible buttons, because smallImage.rollOut is being triggered, then smallImage.rollOver, then out, then over, etc... and I have no idea why.
I can't use startDrag() because of the large image movement needed on MouseMove, and I tried it with EnterFrame and it's worse.Like I said, the demo isn't exactly what I have in my project, but it's close. There's no parallax math, and the project I have is class-based, but the demo is on the timeline. There are 3 levels - A is the root child, B inside of A, and 3 buttons AA, BB, CC inside of B. I have a simple circle Sprite as the mouse cursor.

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.

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.

My Flex 3 application uses a custom cursor and has to show a customized context menu when the user performs a right click. The problem is the customized menu is shown only when the default arrow cursor is shown. When I change it to the custom cursor, the standard context menu appears instead of the customized one.
Is there a way to have both custom cursor and customized context menu in a flash application?
