ActionScript 3.0 :: MC To Follow Cursor But Not Off Stage?

Aug 27, 2010

I have some info boxes that show up upon MOUSE_OVER of an MC.  I set their position to mouseX and mouseY once I want them to appear.  The problem is that when I mouse over something near the edge of my stage, the info box appears beyond the stage's bounds.  Is there a way I can contrain the infobox X,Y so that it does not go off the state?
 
Right now, this is how I define the X,Y of the text box (pretty simple).
 
trlinfotxt.x = mouseX;trlinfotxt.y = mouseY;

ActionScript 2.0 :: Get Object To Follow Cursor And Stop?

Jan 7, 2010

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

[URL]

The code I have so far is:

ball_mc.onEnterFrame = function() {
var xMouse = _root._xmouse;
var yMouse = _root._ymouse;

[Code]....

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

ActionScript 3.0 :: Make Mc Follow Cursor And Drop Mc

May 4, 2010

I 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.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Making Eyes Follow The Cursor [FMX]?

Nov 14, 2002

I know how to make something follow the cursor (e.g. a ball that moves where your cursor does). However, I'm having a lot of trouble figuring out how to do what I need to for an animation, namely make eyes follow a cursor.Here's the situation: I need to make a graphic (the eye in the middle of the eyeball) follow the cursor (i.e. look up, look left, look in any number of diagonal directions) depending on where the user moves the cursor. But the eyes, obviously, need to stay put in one static spot and move in a very limited region (the entire white part of the eye, but not beyond it).

Furthermore, the eyes start out staring at the user. How do I additionally make them dart to the edges where they'll be looking around once the cursor is moved?

Mar 12, 2009

This doesn't work, which should be apparent since I'm posting this. (lol) How can I tell my movieClip to follow the user's mouse?

Apr 21, 2005

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

ActionScript 2.0 :: .rotate Circle With Buttons, Change Direction?

Oct 20, 2010

what i have is a circle image (for this purpose lets say it looks like a clock). For example: when you click 3 o'clock, the whole clock needs to rotate around with the 3 o'clock btn at the 6 o'clock position (with the pivot point in the centre). each of the 'time' positions (2 o'clock, 3 o'clock, 4 o'clock ...etc) needs to be a button and thus be able to rotate around to the 6 o'clock position.This would seem simple enough by just using a.rotate value or using tween movieclips...however the tricky part is:the actionscript needs to determine which way the clock turns (anti/clockwise), dependant on where the clicked time-btn's position is. it needs to be some sort of if statement that says:if (3'oclock-btn) is positioned between 0 degrees (being original 12'oclock position) and 180 degrees (original 6 o'clock position), then rotate clockwise to the 6 o'clock position. If the (3o'clock btn) is positioned between 180degrees and 259 degrees (12 o'clock position), rotate anti-clockwise to the 6'oclock position.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Detect Mouse Direction And Change Frame?

Feb 5, 2010

I'm building a simple 360 degree image rotation effect using single frames and forward and back buttons. I'm new to AS3 and have managed to create functioning buttons... (so my code may be a bit odd!)But now I also want to advance frames by clicking and dragging on the image itself (or on an invisible button sat on top of the image).Although there are some threads here which have asked the same thing, I don't understand how they were answered. My code is below, and the file I am practising with is on:URL...At the moment if you click on the image area it will advance but as there is no code detecting mouse direction, it just goes forward. Can anyone help me understand how to implement a simple direction detection and then use this to decided whether to advance or go backwards.[code]
