I have a flash file that uses Mouse.hide() and sartDrag() to show a custom cursor. The problem is that when the cursor is above a button or movie clip (via level or layer), it doesn't work... sometimes it flickers a bit, but that's it.
This is the weird part:
When I move the custom curser beneath the button or mc, (via level or layer), it works perfectly.
I have some text in textbox and i want to get the letter beneath the mouse cursor while the user move it over the text. how can i do that ?

View 2 RepliesI've been pulling my hair out trying to figure this out. I've looked all over here and other websites and can't find the answer. Here's the situation: I have a movieClip that has an animation inside of it. When the movieClip is hovered over, it changes to the hand (indicating it's clickable). What I need to be able to do is change the hand back to the default cursor. Every single article I've read is about how to change your cursor to something else (using mouse.hide() and replacing it with an image), which is not what I want.
View 2 RepliesI have a sprite on which I have added two textfields side by side, horizontally. I have set the buttonmode of sprite = true. But the mouse cursor changes from regular to clickable only when I hover it on the textfields. In the empty area between the two textfields, the cursor still appears regular/normal.
View 1 RepliesI'm guessing the answer to my question is no, and the solution lies in the hitTest method. But just to be sure . . . if I create a new movie clip and then drag that movie clip over other movie clips that have MOUSE_OVER listeners is there anyway that those clips will get the mouse over?
View 3 RepliesI am looking for a way to simulate a mouse hover/mouse click. What's happening is a bar is autoscrolling and checking to see if there is an active button 'below' it. Sort of like a bar rolling along a music staff and checking for notes.
What can I use to accomplish this?
I am using a magnifying glass effect in flash, but because my content and rollover buttons sit "inside" the magnifying glass, so they appear magnified, the rollovers dont work when you mouse over them because technically you aren't mousing over them, if that makes sense.

I am creating an interactive map. It has little bullets that, when you hover over them, display a short description of the room and a link to another page. What I am trying to do is make it so that the user can hover off of the bullet, and onto the link to the seperate page, without the link and description disappearing because of leaving the bullet's "hit" area.
Do I have to define another hit area for the description and link somehow?
I have map of the world (in photoshop) where each continent is in separate layer and separate coloured. How can I make link in flash of each continent. I want mouse hover over the exact colour (continent). My problem is that mouse hover always over the whole selection box of object (whole rectangle).

View 3 RepliesHaving used copyPixels to display an image, I'm trying to copy another in it's place when the mouse is hovering.The only way I can copy the new image over the old is by setting the If statement to == false.

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.

I need to make a resizeable menu like the menu.gif picture I uploaded. For example the menu to have 5 or 6 elements doesnt matter the problem is to make them adjustable on size (will be different movie clips each one) on mouse hover over each one of them but also snap like this.

I followed this tutorial: [URL] Now I want the image to pan just when the mouse is hover some movieclip instead of the whole stage. When the mouse is hover of the left limit of the movieclip, the image pans to that limit. Like this one (except I don't want vertical panning): [URL]
View 1 RepliesI want a LinkButton's style to stay unchanged when the mouse hovers over it. (But I still want the tooltip to work.) How do I do this?
(The mouseOver event seems relevant, and I do a noop() on that event, but my goal is to leave the style unchanged rather than do something specific.)
By the way, I am using a non-default style, defining it with CSS in the MXML.
I am working on creating a catalog but need to know how to have it where if the user hovers over a product a larger picture will be displayed.
View 8 RepliesI'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.

View 1 RepliesI'm using CS5 actionscript 2. I would like to create hovering text when one mouses over an item in the navigation window (please see pic). You know, something that would act like a brief abstract to give the user more info re: whether or not they need to click on that link.At present, the nav_mc is linked to an xml doc FYI (the nav_mc accordians in and out, but doesn't have to). I input what I want the menu and submenu to say in the xml nodes and it shows up. It would be cool if the hover text added could also be xml driven tooI am green to this so the more detail the better. Do I need to create a new xml doc? new .swf? How do I link this? Should I use Flash Builder or Catalyst?

I have a custom cursor, all works fine until I load in my XML gallery. My cursor conflicts with the xml gallery, I know it's a script problem somewhere in the gallery script, but I dont know how to fix it. If I take the script out of the cursor action, the gallery works fine, but no custom cursor, and vice versa. Here is the code for the xml gallery and below is the code for the cursor, sorry for so much script:

I am going to be working on a site that has various mechanical products for sale. The customer wants me to make a model and movie of each product to show how the product works. Here is an example product:
Flash Clip The problem I am having is, he wants the movie to only play when a user puts their mouse over the video. I attempted doing this with a mp4 file and it worked using jQuery, but only when in Chrome. Here is that link:
MP4 Clip I want these demos to be viewable by the largest possible audience, so I was trying to stay away from Flash (also because I don't know Flash very well if at all). Does anyone know of a way to get this video to work in other browsers like in the second example? If not, how can I achieve that same idea using Flash?
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?
