I have the following code which causes a movieclip to scroll horizontally either left or right based on where the mouse location is, and stops it at the extents of the movie clip:
[Code]...
I have a movie clip I am using as a button (instance name btn1) and I added an event listener to it (using the following line): btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, animate1); the function "animate1" triggers some small animation when the mouse is over the movieclip. my problem is that the animation is triggered both on mouse over and mouse out events.
View 5 RepliesI have some lines that I am assigning actions to upon MOUSE_OVER
The problem is that they are relatively small and kind of finicky to get the mouse directly over. When the mouse_over event occurs, I am changing their color to indicate they've been selected.
Is there a way I can change how sensitive they are to the mouse over event (i.e. detect MOUSE_OVER within 10 pixels of each MC or something)?
Here's the code I am using to asign the listeners and then to create a MOUSE_OVER event.

I am wondering if there is a better way to add MOUSE_OVER/MOUSE_OUT listeners to a whole host of objects in my project.
The example is that I am loading in lots of thumbnails for a portfolio viewer. Each thumbnail is an instance of ThumbnailUI Class. Inside ThumbnailUI, I have added both MOUSE_OVER and MOUSE_OUT event listeners. This means that when all of the thumbnail instances are added, I have lots of listeners active at one time. Is this OK? Is there a better way to achieve mouse events on all of these thumbnails?
I have a 3 mc's into a container and I want to add a MOUSE_OVER or CLICK event listener for each mc inside the container ("for" Loop)..

I am using the FileReference class in ActionScript 2.0.Is there a way that I can receive a response in a XML format from PHP into the onComplete method of the FileReference listener?Basically, what I want to do is upload a file and when the upload is complete, I want to receive an XML format response.
View 1 RepliesIt can be quite confusing title, but my question is simple. I have a mouse_over eventlistener associated with the eventcomplete from a tween. The problem is that if I have allready the mouse over the mc it will not react, only when it is out of bonds and enter.Is there a way to make it work when the mouse is over and not entering the mc?
View 5 RepliesI'm working on a school project. Below is an image of what I am working on. My cursor in this movie is the heart. When I move my mouse over Hello Kitty she jumps -- but only once. How can I get her to keep jumping when my mouse is over her, and make her stop jumping when I pull away?
Also, because I am new to ActionScript I might have messed up with the motion of the animation. Hello Kitty used to jump continuously without me doing anything. Then I copied the motion code into my ACTIONS layer and put stop(); in the Hello Kitty object code. So, she doesn't jump all the time anymore, just when my mouse moves over her... but she only jumps once and that is the problem. I want her to keep jumping as long as my mouse is over her.

I'm working for a client that wants me to create an interactive map, which I can zoom in/out, move the map around, have a minimap guide, and other goodies. I've got the bulk of it created, but I got stuck trying to create a gamepad type controller which the user can click on, and it will move the map.
What I'm trying to do is this: The gamepad graphic I created is like a typical Playstation/X-box style thumbpad controller. There are an up, down, left, and right arrows graphic which the user can click to make the map go up, down, etc. (I have created code to let the users use the keyboards, in case they don't want to use the graphics)
Is it possible to create a continous movement when the mouse is pressed, or will my poor user be stuck clicking the mouse ad-nauseum?
How I can create continuous scrolling (on mouse over ) for limited images (like 10 ) If I mouse over , in left it keeps scrolling images and even keep scrolling when 10 images completed by adding first image to the right
If I mouse over , in right it keeps scrolling images and even keep scrolling when 10 images completed by adding first image to the left[URL]..

View 1 RepliesWhen someone "click and holds" I want to fire off function over and over, say, once every 100ms while the mouse is clicked. Instead of MouseEvent.CLICK I would look for MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN and then start a timer on that event function that calls another function every 100ms. Then, on MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP I would stop the timer. Am I on the right track? Will I be able to get updated X and Y coordinates while the mousedown event is firing?

I have a map of items and I need to know when a mouse moves over the item. Should I add a event listener for mouse over and mouse out to each item (there may be a lot) or I should add mouse over and mouse out listeners to whole container and do some checking to detect whether the target has item on it or not? In the second way it would mean that the event would occur on entering each map tile in the container i would be listening. This seems a bit pointless, but I heard somewhere that I should add as little as possible.. So what should I do?

View 3 RepliesI have a flash piece that replaces the mouse with a knife/sword graphic. When the user clicks (anywhere) the knife animates, 'slashing' the background. The click does something like..knife.gotoAndPlay(2);The animation is about 10 frames long... The problem is sometimes the click does nothing, as if it takes a single click just to focus the mouse. Rapid-clicking seems to have the desired effect if it wasn't for the aforementioned bug. I've tried a mouse listener as well as the standard on... methods and I'm still having the issue.Also, unfortunately due to client restrictions I'm having to code this flash piece in AS2 as opposed to AS3.

View 2 RepliesIm tring to remake most of my projects that i've created so far in class's and packages but it seems to be a mission.
I have the gameMain_Controls class which is the linkaged to the actually fla.
then i have a custom cursor class and a char class the gameMain_Controls pulls objects into the stage as children of the background fron the char class.
now my problem is to get the cursor to hittest of mouse over and at least do a trace out put:
code im trying at the moment which is also in a different class ...called the rollOver_Controls:
if (flap_Control.flap.hitTestObject(Dino_Control.layla))
{
trace("lal hit");
}

but the hittest jsut never occurs im guessing the problem is which the location of the object, the container i mean ...but when i try to link it that way i get even more problems

View 2 RepliesI would like to have a movie to play when the mouse is over a button instead of when it is clicked. My script is now:
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClick);
I'm getting an unusual behavior that I can't seem to get to the bottom of. When I run this, if I move in the swf area it traces normally on mouse move. To be expected.
But it's tracing for the move event when I click anywhere on screen. If I click and drag, it traces as if I were moving in the swf area of the browser.
Here's the code. I've simplified to it's barebones. Just put this in in an empty AS3 project in Flex called "Engine" - sans quotes obviously.

import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;

As a workaround I've add the MOUSE_MOVE one MOUSE_OVER and remove it on MOUSE_OUT. But the behavior still seems quite unusual and I'd be interest in understanding why it's happening.how I can keep the events constrained to the actual stage of the application?

i am trying to create a listener that will detect if the mouse is outside an area (an imaginary box if you will) and when it goes outside that box I want to put in a gotoAndPlay action, I know i have seen it done, but can't find anywhere it has now and i don't even know how to begin to make a listner, could anybody help with maybe some sample code i could borrow?
