ActionScript 3.0 :: Switching Custom Cursor With SwapChildren?
Feb 22, 2009
I'm trying to switch cursors on mouse over but I think my roll over/outs are being triggered over and over again, because when I trace the function, it just keeps printing. Here is where the function is called and I swap the cursors:
owl_shadow.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, over_over_handler);
function over_over_handler (evt:Event):void
{
removeChild(default_cursor);
[Code]....
how to stop the repeating and flickering?

I'm making a simple point and click shooter with a custom cursor and I seem to have a bit of a problem. It is very similar to a problem that I've read here. It seems that when the cursor is over the button it constantly switches between the MOUSE_OVER and MOUSE_OUT state (and...preventing any clicks i assume). Now the solution on the previous mentioned post doesn't work for me since the custom cursor always needs to be on screen.
Here's a piece the code I'm using (customCursor is already added on the stage):
PHP Code:
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE,follow);
function follow(evt:MouseEvent) {
//I use this to keep my cursor on top.

I am making use of a custom cursor on itemRenderers in a List component. The custom cursor works just fine except when I mouse over the Text component which is a child of the itemRenderer at which point I get two cursors, the custom and an iBar one on top of the other.Here's the code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">

Is it possible to make a custom cursor with restraints (meaning you only see the cursor when you put your mouse in a certain spot, by defining both the max and min of the x & y), that is placed inside a movie clip; then make the movie clip move on the stage when you click certain buttons.

Code:
onClipEvent(load)
{
Mouse.hide();
this.startDrag();
}
...for customising the mouse cursor. I have five movie clips, each for the mouse cursor in different states. The first is for when the mouse is moving at anything from static to average speed; the other four are for when the mouse is moved very swiftly from left to right, right to left, up to down, and down to up, respectively. These are the two things I need to ask you:How do you detect when the user moves the cursor very swiftly in the x axis? (and also y)Triggered by fast movement as above, how do you tell the mouse pointer to change to, and play, the corresponding movie clip, before returning to the static state pointer?

I am using a custom cursor for my flash app and when I have the cursor click button1 (menu_btn in the code) it goes to scene2 and when I click button2 (current_btn in the code) it goes back to scene1. The problem is that when I click on button2 it leaves an image of the cursor right there on the button. It doesn't happen on button1. It was suggested that I am calling "cursor = new Cursor();" and extra time, but I am not. The code is below.

this is what I want.I have a MC whose color is set to Alpha 0 which is placed over an area where I want on ROLL_OVER the mouse to change to my custom cursor (which will indicate that a mouse click will "do something")this is what I have done.1. created a MC that will be used as my Custom Cursor with alignment sent to center/middle (or center sq. in the grid)2. I have exported it for AS
Code:
//roll over and roll out event handlers: (tgIcon_mc is the MC that I want to make active.)
tgIcon_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, rollOverHandler);

I have a script to display a particular custom cursor when the mouse is over a particular button. It works OK, in that the cursor is displayed on MOUSE_OVER and hidden on MOUSE_OUT.The problem is that the cursor flickers, and its ability to activite the button on CLICK seems intermittent.Trace actions show me that the functions assigned to MOUSE_OVER and MOUSE_OUT are repeatedly being called when the custom cursor is over the button.This happens even if I take my hand off the mouse, and the function assigned to MOUSE_MOVE is not being called.Here is the code. (Inspect is a class added to a movie clip in the library, exported for AS.)
Code:
/* Custom Cursor */
var inspect_mc:MovieClip = new Inspect();

i have a little scratch and win game that's working perfectly, except i am being asked to make a custom cursor (a coin). now, i can easily make a custom cursor for the whole thing, but i think it looks trashy (especially with it going on a website with ads and the like, how would anyone know to click the ad when theres a freakin' coin over it?
anyways, what i want, is to make the coin only show up when the coin is like... over a "scratchable" box..

I have a Flash document containing several subclasses. I want to access a custom cursor class I wrote from another subclass called 'mapmenu'. The thing is, it's not working properly. I can import it from my Main class, but not from any subclass. Some bells should be ringing..This is the custom cursor class (located at C:/Flashproject/com/own/Cursor/Cursor.as):
Actionscript Code:
package com.own.Cursor{ import flash.display.*; import flash.events.*; import flash.geom.Point; import flash.ui.Mouse; public class Cursor extends MovieClip private var stageRef:Stage;public function
[code]....
I let all the other script out, it's a bunch and it's not needed for the cursor to function.In the .FLA I have a MovieClip called Cursor containing a cursor. It's exported on frame 1.The problem is: the cursor class won't be called. No errors, no cursor, no trace (see cursor class).
EDIT:FYI: I would put this in the main class:
Actionscript Code:
cursor = new Cursor(stage);stage.addChild(cursor);
But I can't address stage from a subclass can I..?

I made a custom cursor for a photo gallery. It works. But when I go off of the gallery, my custom cursor disappears (good), but the "normal" cursor is gone too. So if I go off of the gallery, I don't see a cursor.

I'd like to put a given cursor design in the library, then make a call to it using the custom cursor script I'm working on (detailed in the other thread). This is more professional and attractive than keeping some thing on the stage.

I've been looking everywhere but I can't find the solution to this problem. I made a custom cursor and I want the hotspot not to be in the upper left part of the movie clip but in the place of the movie clip that I choose. So, how do you change the hot spot of a custom cursor? I'm using Flash CS4 AS3. I can't believe no one asked this before.

I have a problem with flickering mouse custom cursor. I have a timeline which is my main clip and I want to show a pencil like cursor when I am over the timeline movie clip. I am using standard Mouse events, MOUSE_OVER and MOUE_OUT, MOUSE_MOVE. Also I use Mouse.hide()/show() functions to show and hide the mouse.Also the same principal or the pencil movie clip which I show and Hide.
On MOUSE_MOVE is set the coordinates of the pencil movieclip to be those on the Mouse cursor. How ever I get a flickering of the mouse and the pencil movieclip while above the timeline movieclip. So they change from one to another all the time without stopping i.e filckering.
