ActionScript 3.0 :: MOUSEOUT Not Responsive Enough
Oct 5, 2011
I am making a project that has a lot of buttons, each of which has mouseout and mouseover functions. I noticed that if I'm fast enough with the mouse, I can trigger a mouseover function, but the mouseout one will not trigger. One would think that if Flash can detect the mouseover, it would certainly also detect the mouseout, but it does not sometimes.
Is there any way to make it more responsive? My only option as of now is to run mouseover if statement checks every frame for every button, which defeats even having any listeners at all.

First time posting, and limited experience with Flash, however I have some decent exposure to coding, so I decided to search the web for a nice Flash Gallery Animated Script 2.0. However when I code my gallery everything is non-responsive. Is it because I have a newer version of Flash and the coding is for an older one?

Does Loader.close() stops loading at once, or it continues loading certain number of chunks before stopping? Is it viable to run concurrent loading process in the background and then stop it abruptly (or even pause if possible) if user needs something else loaded immediately? And what about loading of other types of external content?

I want to put a transparent area on my stage. When the mouse enters that area I want to be notified (so that I can do stuff).I expect to use some code like"addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, mouseInRemote);" - but the qustion is "What do I add to my stage?"

Im having a problem getting responsive keyboard movement. I have a key_up listener which fails to trigger when 3 keys are down. E.g. Imagine up and right keys are being pressed to move up + right. The user wants to change to moving up + left. The user presses the left key before lifting thg right key. I have a key_up listener to detect when a key is no longer being pressed. However in this scenario it fails to trigger when 3 keys are pressed. Even in this online example, there is the same problem, look how unresponsive it is when chaging from up right to up left really quickly. [URL]

I am trying to make a sliding menu whose speed is responsive to _xmouse (slow at the center and fast at the sides...) does it need to exist in two pieces? the problem is that it seems impossible to define 0(zero) as anything but just that...

I have an image that grows on mouseover and shrinks on mouseout, and I'm using the following script for the events:
[code]...
The problem is that while the image is growing or shrinking,if the mouse is on the exact border it simultaneously gets stuck on both the mouseover and mouseout fuctions, resulting in seizure-inducing loop. Is there any way to ensure that a function completes once it's started, or some other way to avoid the simultaneous over/out condition?

I'm using the following to reveal scrollers on mouseover, but although one replaces another when I move the cursor over the buttons, when I move the cursor away from all buttons or move to another area on the page, the last scroller I moused over remains visible -- can anyone tell me what I need to change on the following code to make the scroller vanish on mouseout?
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay("s1");
_root.scroller.swapDepths(2998);

I made the following animated men[url].. I got it to work after allot of effort and some help of forum members. But now I have one last problem.
When you move fast in and out with your mouse over the blocks, the mouseOut actions aren't played and the animation hangs. Resulting in a mashup of the animation.[code]...

I'm having some trouble with a drop-down menu I made. I found a cool script on this board that worked perfectly for me, but the problem is that the implementation needs to be in midst of HTML - so that it works seamlessly. What I'm doing is using this to replace a clunky DHTML style menu, and it works great, except for one thing...When I use this in a TRANSPARENT WINDOWLESS environment, the menu won't collapse back
It works fine if I use Opaque or Windowed, but Transparent just kills me. Unfortunately, this needs to be transparent, because it's going to be implemented like this:

I found the script for this menu here on the Kirupa Forum, and it works well, except for this one particular quirk. I've uploaded the file, and it's attached. As well, I've copied the script for it below:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (this.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, true)) {
this.play();
if (this._currentframe == 10) {

I'm having a Panel container with buttons and other controls in it. When the mouse moves over one of the container's children (e.g. a button), the Panel receives a MouseOut event where the target and currentTarget properties reference the Panel itself. That causes me problems. I only want the Panel MouseOut event when I leave the panel, not when I enter a child of the panel. Are there any way to turn that off?See example:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

I'm a real noobie with flash and I was wondering if somebody could help me with this one. I have this actionsript 3 code, where the cursor image "ball_mc" follows the mouse's position with a slight delay:
[Code]...
1) How can I get the cursor image automatically return to the center of the stage on mouseout? As of now, it stays at the position where the mouse leaves the stage.
2) How can I reverse the movement of the mouse? So that when I, for example, move mouse to the right, the cursor image would move to the left? And when moving the mouse up, the image would go down. The stage is 800 x 250 pixels, in case that makes any difference.

Basically, I have a button that when moused over it makes rivers go to 50% opacity (they start at 10%), then when clicked they go to 100%.
What I want: Then the rivers stay at 100% until the user clicks the button again.
What is happening: Currently though the mouseout is fading the rivers back to 10%. I know that my code is telling it to do that and want to know how to make it stop.
Here is my code for this:
function shipMouseOver(event:MouseEvent):void {
Tweener.addTween(rivers_mc, {alpha: 1, time:2});
Tweener.addTween(this.dashboard_mc.ship_btn, {alpha: 1, time:2});
} function shipMouseOut(event:MouseEvent):void {

I have created a button for fade-in and fade-out, when cursor goes over that button, one of its element fades-in and when cursor goes out it fades-out. But if I quickly moves the cursor over and out that button, most of the time it gets stuck on fade-in ( it doesn't fade-out as cursor quickly goes out of that movie-clip area).
I am using following AS :
on(mouseOver){
// fade-in element
} on(mouseOut){
// fade-out element
}

This should be super easy, but I am stuck on the last part:Two event listeners- 1 roll over and 1 roll out on a button.
They call individual functions: homeROv & homeROu respectively.
In my roll over function (homeROv) I place a mc on the stage.
Now, what i want is for the roll out function to target that added mc and remove it.[code]...

I've got the following movie online to look at:(disregard background, temporary image)URL...I have 3 icons (will be 4, the photos at the bottom of the movie).When hovering over a button, it should rise up around 50px, and on mouse out, it should drop back down to its original position.If you look at the movie, it does that, however, if you move around the images a bit you'll see that at some points it picks up 2 photos/buttons at a time (since they're overlapping a bit I imagine), but the BIG problem is that sometimes, when picking up both images, they do not return to their original position when mousing OUT as they should, they remain suspended as if they are stuck at the end of the onmouseover function and can't come back down.[code]

I've got the following problem: I have a button with two listeners: a mouseover and a mouseout. When I mouseover I trigger a TweenLite x tween that tweens the position of a textfield inside the button. It tweens back on the mouseout.
This is the code:
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, onMouseOver);
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, onMouseOut);
private function onMouseOver(e:Event):void{
TweenLite.to(e.target.lbl_txt, .2, {x:12});
}private function onMouseOut(e:Event):void{
TweenLite.to(e.target.lbl_txt, .2, {x:8});
}
When I am already hovering the button before the listeners are set and then the listeners are set I get this error:
ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property lbl_txt not found on flash.text.TextField and there is no default value.

I want to make two custom cursors. One to be visible on rollover and second visible only on mouse down. Is this possible. I want to make game where cursor changes into mc1 and moves around with mouse but when you click mc1 is changing to mc2. Till now i managed to hide cursor, make mc1 to move with cursor but dont have any idea how to change mc1 with mc2 on mouse down and then mc1 to come back on release. Is there any other way to make this, my idea was to make 2 clips to follow cursors and use as to determine when each clip is visible, but it doesn't work.

AS3 page with text links that change to a new color on mouse_over and change back on mouse_out. Sometimes the links do not change back and all remain colored after mouse-out. I have never been able to simulate the problem on my several computers at several locations but have seen it happen on the clients computers. Is there a known issue perhaps with Flash/AS3/Flash Player Version# that might cause this?

I've found a very annoying problem with the itemRenderers in a DataGroup in flex 4, when I mouseout of the itemRenderer is returns to its default state. Here's an example:
<s:Application
xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx">
[code]....
When the user clicks on the button the VGroup is collapsed as expected, but then if a user moves their mouse out of the item renderer it then collapses, i.e. returns to its default state.

I am building a graphic component in MXML that has different states, each state having its own size. I have a "normal" state and a "highlighted state", the highlighted one having a higher height. On this components I implemented a function to be executed on each mouseOver and mouseOut to change from normal state to highlighted state and back. My problem is, in the highlighted mode, the mouseout event is triggered according to the size of the normal state.

I'm creating a menu from XML. It will be able to traverse over the XML recursively (so n-levels deep). The menu itself is a composite -- each node in the menu, either a menuList or menuItem, is a menuComponent. menuComponent is more-or-less an abstract class so they all inherit and override a draw() function. If the object is a menuList, then it has a Sprite container to hold all of it's children. I did this so it would be easy to add and remove all of it's children by just adding and removing a container that holds all of them.
The issue I'm having is with the event listeners. I am adding a mouse_over event to a button. The button is within a Sprite container. When I mouse over the button, I'm adding the submenu into the buttons container. The problem comes when I mouse out of the button. I've gotten the submenu to stay but not disappear on mouse_out OR it appears when I'm over the button but disappears as soon as I exit it. I THOUGHT if I attach the mouse_out listener to the container, it would work because the container should expand when I add the submenu into it.
ActionScript Code:
package as3 {
import flash.display.DisplayObjectContainer;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.ErrorEvent;
import flash.utils.getDefinitionByName;

how to make a basic image rotater by importing images and setting up motion tweens in the time line. That part works. When I hit ctrl + enter it plays through the images correctly.
Now I want to add an action script that will play/pause the rotator on mouseover and mouseout.
What I have so far is layers img1, img2, img3, img4 and an invisible button layer called buttonLayer.
I added a 6th layer and named it action.
Now every time I try to use one of the symbols from the library I get a "undefined property" error.
I have looked all over and find all kinds of tuts but none of the ones I'm finding tell the basics of how to use a symbol in the actionscript. Or how to make a symbol/instance/object in the first place. They just say things like "somesymbolname.play()" but when I replace that with my symbol name I get the error.
I've renamed all my symbols to img1, img2... because one thing I can see that is obvious is that there is no way "symbol 1" works in any programming language because of the space in the name. I'm confused that flash would automatically create a symbol with a name I can't use.
When I right click->actions to bring up the actionscript window for my action layer where do I start? And are there other things I need to do with the symbols and layers before I can use them in action script?
I'm attaching the fla file in a zip. how to add the actionscript it would go a long way in helping me understand how it all works.
I also tried saving the swf and then importing that into a new project as one single layer to work with and that doesn't seem to make a difference as far as figuring out the actionscript.

I have a simple rollover button that I want to use as a background image for a navigation on a drupal site I'm helping to develop. I'm not too skilled in AS3 and I can't figure out how to get the button to play on a mouseover and reverse on a mouse out - all from the current frame.URL...I set it up a motion tween that would play on a mouseover and then play a motion tween back to the original size on a mouse out but this only works if you stay on the button until it fully expands, otherwise it jumps around.

Basically I have a animation loop movie clip and a button layed over top that controls that animation. When hovering overtop the button, the movieclip's saturation changes by moving up a frame in the timeline. When clicked it is supposed to move the position of the movie clip. The problem is I can't have a mouseclick handler and mouseout handler (goes back to frame one) on the same button. I can't create the animation as a button because I NEED the animation to keep playing uninterrupted. I just need the saturation to change and I don't know any other way to do it other than create multiple key frames.
Code:
button_11.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndPlayFromFrame_26);
function fl_ClickToGoToAndPlayFromFrame_26(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay(5);
} button_11.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, fl_MouseOverHandler_4);
function fl_MouseOverHandler_4(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay(2);
} button_11.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, fl_MouseOutHandler_2);
function fl_MouseOutHandler_2(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay(1);
}
