ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Set Mouse Cursor Location
Oct 27, 2011
our group want to develop a 3D FPS game on flash 11, but how could we make same user experience as Conter-Strike or those classic FPS games without set mouse cursor location?as I know, both ShockWave and Unity Web Player can lock or set location of mouse cursor.we may considering some sercurity issues of open this API, but we are talking about things that desktop apps can do and web apps can not do.
I need to know how to make a movie clip appear exactly where the user clicks.I have a button that is made up of four separate parts across the stage, and when you click a part of it, I'd like for a movie clip to appear on that button, where you just clicked.Rather than creating 4 separate movie clips (and four separate buttons) showing the same thing, can I just make one, and make it move to the location the user has clicked?Please let me know if this makes sense! Essentially, I'd like to know if there is a code that says "Make movie clip appear on location of mouse"
I am trying to make an object tween from its starting location to the location of a mouse click. I have a script, but it has a very annoying ease to it.I would LIKE the object to mantain a certain speed during while traveling from its starting location to the mouse click location.
Working on a small kiosk app that runs in Firefox for Ubuntu. Mouse.hide() works for everything else, but the cursor is showing up in Firefox for Ubuntu
I am trying to make a simple game in flash it is a target shooting game i would like to make it so that the mouse cursor dissapears and a crosshair is shown as the cursor (if you get what i mean). I have created the crosshair and made it into a graphic symbol called: "crosshair" so what is the script i need to make it the cursor for the game
in the swf, when my mouse reaches a dynamic text box, the cursor always changes to the 'I' cursor and the text can be highlighted.how to prevent this from occurring?
how to change the cursor when move over a chart in flex i have tried useHandCursor="true" but it's not working in charts.....and it should show values also....
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 changed the mouse cursor using a tutoral from this forum, but when I press the right mouse button,the standard mouse cursor reapears.How to prevent that?
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.
how to make a movieclip move base on mouse location similar to the one seen in [URL]. I've found some script that I've been working with and it rotates the Y just fine but keeps rotating. How would I determine a set rotation to stop when I stop mouse movement. Here is my script:
var maxSpeed:uint = 1 box.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onLoop, false, 0, true); function nLoop(e:Event):void{
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 have made a simple application to move a ball to the location of the mouse. I am trying to adjust my app so that when the ball does move in the same position as my mouse location, it should remove the listener showing that the ball does reach my mouse's destination.
Code: package { /** * Zenos.as is meant to show how you can demonstrate friction using the Zenos
I am trying to find a menu to implement in the form of a coverflow. I have one accessible but flipping through the covers requires that I click covers, or use the scroll bar.
I am looking for one that will move left and right without requiring clicking. Dragging is probably acceptable. I have been sifting through the google search results, but it seems most coverflows are modeled the same. It doesn't need to be free, but if I could customize it via XML that'd be great.
i have a darkBlueRect rectangle sprite and a copy of the same sprite with a larger scale and a lighter color - lightBlueRect.i'm attempting to shift the location of the lightBlueRect according to the mouse.x location when the mouse is moving over the darkBlueRect. this way if the mouse is on the right of the darkBlueRect than the location of the scaled up lightBlueRect will be on the opposite side and shifted towards the left proportionate to the mouse position and scale. in addition, the lightBlueRect must appear "locked" to the darkBlueRect so lightBlueRect.x must never be more than darkBlueRect.x and lightBlueRect.x + lightBlueRect.width must never be less than darkBlueRect.x + darkBlueRect.width.

I have the gun all coded and setup, it's an automatic weapon that fires at the mouse as long as you hold down the trigger, seems simple enough. It updates the target point whenever the user clicks or moves the mouse.My problem though, is that it can't so easily update the target when the user moves their avatar via keyboard keys. As they do this, the target remains at a constant point in worldspace, getting farther and farther from the mouse pointer until they click again or move the mouse. While not a huge issue, this is annoying.A dirty solution I can think of would be updating the target point according to camera movement so that it should follow the mouse even when the mouse isn't moving. This solution seems like a lot of unnecessary work though and I'd like to explore the apparently simpler route first.
Basically, I want to have 5 bullet points on this flash document, and as you move your mouse, it measures the distance from the mouse to the text (each bullet point measured separately) and it effects the scale of the text. I don't want it to be drastic, but just something people would notice when they move their mouse around on the page to give the user a little bit more interactivity with this particular page.
I am trying to track mouse location on the stage in a swf file with Action script. I found properties that appear to have x and y location, stageX and stageY as well as localX and localY. But I am getting compiler errors to the effect of attempt to access possibly undefined property: as follows: 1119: Access of possibly undefined property stageX through a reference with static type Class.
I got a containers gallery whitch I made and I want the containers down outside the screen to come up when the mouse goes down. (If not please contact me in private and I will show you my flash).
I recently came across a small business site that had a homepage with there logo and some basic nav in the center with the business logoBut there entire background had a moving flash background made up of photos in the shape of words, that when you moved your mouse to the left, the background would move to the right, up and it would go down and so on as if it followed your mouse but inverted.
The idea is there are two buttons(Sprites), one on the left & one on the right, when either button is moused over a the script should start setting the alpha of the relevant visible element. (i'm not worried that they both would be fading out as the mouse moves left to right at this point)
ActionScript Code: private function turnOnInterfaceHinting():void { this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, InterfaceHinting); }
So I want to control a movie clips rotation with the location of the mouse, with easing if possible. But I am having some trouble figuring out where to start
1. Im getting the mouse location so that when its at the top of the screen a dropdown menu appears. It works fine on my first two frame, but on my third the drop down doesnt move unless my mouse passes over it.
I am trying to get a stationary object to follow the mouse but remain in its location. Example: i am trying to get the center of a compass to follow the mouse around screen while remaining inside the compass. i have only found out how to have it chase the mouse but not remain on a fixed point and rotate.
