ActionScript 3.0 :: Detect A HitTest With The Cursor?

Feb 1, 2008

The current problem is trying to detect a hitTest with the cursor. I use this code very successfully in AS2, when I cannot use an rollover for whatever reason.

This is my AS2 code:

PHP Code:

onEnterFrame = function(){   if(my_mc.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse))   {      race("the mouse is positioned over my_mc")    }} 

This is me trying unsuccessfully to convert it to AS3:

PHP Code:

stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, intro); function intro(e:Event):void{     my_mc.hitTest(mouseX, mouseY)     {        trace("the mouse is positioned over my_mc")     }}

ActionScript 2.0 :: HitTest To Check If Cursor Is On Navigation

May 10, 2006

I have written a little script for a navigation menu and basically all I want to do is to use hitTest to check if the cursor is on the navigation, and if so I want to play a simple shape tween opening animation, and if the cursor is out of the navigation I want to play a shape tween closing animation sounds simple enough right? But for some reason it doesn't run through the animation it just going there and stops, well here's the code..

Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
var Mousex = _root._xmouse;
var Mousey = _root._ymouse;
if (this.hitTest(Mousex,Mousey)) {
this.gotoAndPlay("On");
} else {
this.gotoAndPlay("Off");
}}

I've included a screen capture of the animation as well.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Faulty HitTest - Detect A Hit On The Image When It Doesnt Hit It?

Dec 20, 2010

I am have a enemy with a sword on 1 image and a player character on another.I test to see if the tip of the enemy sword (point) appears in the player image.
It seems to always detect a hit on the image when it doesnt hit it. The player image has a lot of transparent pixels and it looks like it detects a bounding box hit.Not sure what to do here as this test looks faulty. The y values are correct but the x values seem to cause th issue where xVal is the currect image x value.
 
x=enemy.xVal+el.x ;y=posY(enemy.yVal-el.y) ;
 
if (myplayer.img.hitTestPoint(x,y,false)==true)

ActionScript 2.0 :: HitTest Detect Random Duplicated Instance?

Sep 25, 2005

I've got this code on my frame:

if (_root.count <= 20) {
duplicateMovieClip("_root.clip", "clip"+_root.count, _root.count);
_root["clip"+_root.count]._x = random(500)+50;
_root["clip"+_root.count]._y = random(1)+20;
}

And I need to figure out how to have the hitTest see the randomly generated instances of this duplicated mc.

I can get the hitTest to see the first instance (called "clip"), but then it doesn't see all the rest.

Here's the code I have on the hitTestMC:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (_root.chime1, hitTest(_root.clip)) {
_root.chime1.gotoAndPlay("play1");
}
}

ActionScript 2.0 :: Generic HitTest - Detect Collision With One Object

Oct 13, 2005

Right now I'm working on an advanced hitTesting engine, and What I'm trying to do here is create an engine that will detect collision with one object instead of two. That basically means that if any other objects touch this movie clip, the hitTest will return True. Right now the .fla containing the engine has nothing but a circle that can be moved using arrow keys and 8 squares that disappear when touched by the circle. Obviously, I could do something like:

if (circle.hitTest(square1)) {
do so and so
} else if (circle.hitTest(square2)) {
do this and that
} etc...

But that would be too long, since the engine has to be able to contain 100 squares without too much change in the code.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Use HitTest To Detect If A Dragged Clip Is Over Any One Of 3 Different Targets?

Jun 20, 2007

I'm trying to use hitTest to detect if a dragged clip is over any one of 3 different targets - when it is I want that target to blink. And then when I drag off I'd like the blinking to stop. Make sense? I'm struggling a bit with the following code:

Code:
square_mc.onPress = function() {
this.startDrag();
for (z=1; z<4; z++) {
circle = _root["circle"+z+"_mc"];

[code]....

The "eval(circle)" part isn't really working.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Detect When The Cursor Turns To A Hand?

May 17, 2011

I would like a function to run when a user clicks anywhere on stage. But this function should not run when the click is on buttons & on url:s inside a dynamic html-formated textfield. How can I detect this? I do realise that the cursor turns to a hand when you hoover over a url inside a textfield & you can set the hand to appear on buttons as well (which i always set it to do). So is there a way in realtime to detect when the cursor is & is not a hand? I've tried the following:

Code:
btn_mc.buttonMode = true;
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,down)
function down(E:MouseEvent)

ActionScript 2.0 :: Create An "hitTest" Script Inside A Movieclip That Is Actually Part Of That HitTest Code?

Jan 15, 2009

i just would like to know how to create an "hitTest" script inside a movieclip that is actually part of that hitTest code?I mean... I have mc A, and mc B. and the current hitTest code im using (that is on the timeline) makes mc A, destroy mc B when collide with it... but there are many mc B on the stage (with the same instance name) so, when mc A collide with one mc B, it destroys ALL mc's B... but i want it to destroy only the mc B that he collides, not all the others... maybe an hitTest script inside a movieclip B would work (somethig like "if MC A hitTest ME = i die" (not all the others)).
