View 1 RepliesI'm trying to create an interactive mouse that mimics the hand cursor you see in pdf files and other programs. There's two movieclips I want to use for the cursor. The open hand and the grab. I can get the cursor to work on the open hand, but can't get it to work when I press and want the open hand to change to the grab cursor. Here's my code:
onClipEvent (load) {
Mouse.hide();
startDrag(this, true);

View 3 RepliesI finished creating a vertical scrolling news ticker for a client, but I've run into a problem. I use .html to create functional anchor tags within flash. I need to create a capture event when the mouse changes from the pointer to a hand on the anchor links. I'd spent the morning googling for help, and reading all of my resource books, and I still don't know how to create a capture event for mouse hand cursors. I'm attaching the code in question. It works as intended.

i have a text field within a movieclip and i would like the hand cursor to show when the mouse passes over it. but the hand won't show, i'm not sure if the text field is influencing the outcome.
var mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
mc.useHandCursor = true;
addChild(mc);[code]...........
I am aware that the follow will show a hand cursor:
component.mouseChildren = true;
component.useHandCursor = true;
component.buttonMode = true;
When I do the above on a List component, the hand button is shown and the whole component loses it's interactivity (Hand cursor is shown even on scrollbars).
So how can I show the hand cursor only when rolling over the list items?
I have a cursor class and i wanna make it so the cursor change to state 'over' whenever the hand cursor is there. I dont want to add an event listener for every roll over in my page.
something like :
if(handCursorIsUsed)
{

I want to have the mouse cursor to be changed to hand when used for entering the<mx:textInput>. When the field is already on focus, text selection should be available.I tried any combination of useHandCursor="true", buttonMode="true" and mouseChildren="false",and the closest result is when using all three of them. Then the hand cursor does appear, but the text field loses its selection 'abilities' (text cannot beselected using the mouse). This is logical, since mouseChildren="false" disables this. But how do I acheive the desired result?
View 1 RepliesMy movie targets flash player 10, and I compile it with FlexSDK v 4.51. It compiles and plays with no errors. But if I view the swf in Flash Player 10, some sprites that are set to buttonmode do not show a hand cursor or dispatch MouseEvents. In fact, if I play it in the Flash Player 10 debug player, I get an error:
"VerifyError: Error #1053: Illegal override of z in mx.core.BitmapAsset."
So to fix this, I can switch to using an older SDK, version 4.1. Now the error message is gone, but the mouseover problem persists - now for Flash Player version 10 and 11.
There are no flash 11 specific features used. It should be targetable using flash player 10.
I have determined that the mouse event and the override error are not related. The mouse event error seems to being caused by using filters. and I have found a workaround, by applying the filter to a child object, instead of the parent.
The error thrown above, is getting caused by an embedded bitmap. And it seems like a fix to that is to use flex SDK 4.1. Any reason not to just use the 4.1 SDK? Any way to make 4.5 sdk compatible with Flash player 10?
I need to make the cursor turn into to a hand when the user is with the mouse over the movie clip. when I use the following code the entire movie turns into to a hand but I just want it on my movie clip.

i'm making a small "add news" movie for a site in actionscript. When I insert an image in my textField, I can only move the cursor with my keys and not with my mouse anymore. I put the image always in front. I also have to click one time in my textfield, otherwise my text appears under my image. When I click it aligns to the right.

I'm new to AS3 and OOP in general and I'm trying to create a cursor class for a mouse avoider game, i.e a class whose position is mouseX, mouseY. This is where I'm at (the Avatar class in added to the stage in a Main class not shown):[code]But this doesn't work, I guess I have to refer to the mouse in some other way? I also tried using MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE which got me closer, but the avatar only moved when my mouse was directly at the center of the movieclip.

View 4 RepliesI am using a Dewslider flash player to load flash animations on a webpage, but am getting the hand cursor appearing on the movie, while it should have been the normal mouse arrow.In reading some tutorials I tried using an empty flash movie to load the initial Dewslider but still having the hand cursor but now when reloading the page after visiting another page.
The code am using:
Code:
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
var dewsliderpath = _root._url.substring(0, _root._url.lastIndexOf("/")) + "/dewslider_ori.swf?xml=" + xml;
DewSlider.loadMovie(dewsliderpath);

I've come to a really strange bug in Flash: There is a swf called Nav.swf which contains on its stage a movieclip "som" which has its own class Som.as.There's an animation on Nav.swf, and when it ends it will call the method StartPlayer() on Som.as.If I run setupButtons() in the init() function, it works fine, I am able to click the button "btPlayPause" and it will trace what's in the function clickPlayPause();
THE PROBLEM: If I leave it as it is on the example below (the setupButtons() function is only called by the startPlayer() method, which is called from Nav.swf a while later after Som is instantiated) it will trace what's in both functions startPlayer() and setupButtons() BUT the button "btPlayPause" won't work! It dosn't get the buttonMode property set to true (cursor does not change to the little hand) and when I click on it it does not run clickPlayPause(), it doesn't trace anything!
The same happens if I call directly the setupButtons() function from the nav.swf. It will trace what's in setupButtons() but the movieclip won't listen to the MouseEvent.I cleaned up the code only to show what matters:
Code:
package br.com.dialetto.nav
{
import flash.display.*;[code]..........
