ActionScript 3.0 :: Different Custom Cursor When Mouseover Invisible Buttons?
Jun 22, 2009
I need to show different custom pointer when mouseover 2 different invisible buttons. These are next and back buttons which cover the entire left and right part of the stage. How this can be done in as3? Or is there a better way of doing it? I checked out the import flash.ui adobe live doc but can't quite make head and tail of it. I guess the example shown is only to change to custom cursor for entire stage.

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.

I have made a script for a custom cursor, but the only problem is that when I hover the cursor over a button, the button shows on top of it and the cursor hides underneath and you can't really see what you're trying to click.
Here is my script:
Code:
onEnterFrame = function() {
cursor._x = _xmouse;
cursor._y = _ymouse;
Mouse.hide();
}
(The instance's name is "cursor")

I'm trying to convert my sniper game to as3 but coming up with the problem of evt.target hitting the scope crosshairs (the cursor) and not bubbling down to the stick man.[ode]I've come up with two solutions but they both negatively impact the accuracy and game play.
1. use objectHitTest, this works but makes it frustrating to hit small objects
2. make a small hole in the scope, this would probably work but could also cause problems

I'm working on my personal portfolio site and desperately need help with some AS3. my knowledge about AS3 is very rudimentary. Hope anyone who's I want to change the pointer cursor to custom movieclip when mouseover different invisible buttons. These buttons are mainly forward & backward button for my gallery. I got some help from other site but still unsolved. Please take a look at my fla attachment to point out what's wrong with the coding. To elaborate a little bit more as what I wish to achieve you can take a look at the sample URL...I just need the pointer cursor to turn to custom mc when it mouseover the hit area of the respective buttons.

I need to hide my mouse and have a bullseye movie clip as a custom cursor. The problem is, I also need to click on things, and the code that I found on forums to create a custom cursor blocks the mouse from clicking on anything.
Mouse.hide();
var cursor_mc = new crosshairs();
this.parent.addChild(cursor_mc);
cursor_mc.startDrag(true);
Is there a way to do a custom cursor that acts the same way as the mouse usually does?

I am adding a swf to my website with a streaming flv player and I would like to make the buffer mc invisible until the invisible button covering the video player is moused over. I would like the net stream to begin when the page loads, but for the video to begin when the player is moused-over, and then pause when moused-off, right now the buffer is showing on page load and the animation is really distracting.
This is the code I am working with:
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect("rtmp://rtmphost.com/banner/");
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);

I am creating a thumnail bar having the thumnail of the images, it has the default visible thumbs of 7 images, while the others must be hidden on the right of the bar. I used the code in AS3 to add thumbs in to the bar, the first 7 were fine, but the others still appearred visible and cover the bar border.My thumbBar is simply a rectangle and what i really did was to thumbBar.addChild(thumb). But all the thumbs appeared visible, first 7 thumbs stayed inside the rectange but the others were outside.How can I make the others invisible and turn them visible only when i use with the MouseOver Event.

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.

I have a master movie with navigation that loads a external swfs. The external swfs serve different purposes and typically have a series of buttons that navigate the timeline. The external movies with their buttons work fine running individually. When the movies are loaded through the master movie, the buttons in the external movies looses the cursor change on rollOver. These are basic invisible hotspot - button symbols. The buttons typically navigated to different frames. I am curious why the cursor change fails when loaded through the main movie, but works when run on its own.
Throughout all the movies, I probably have over 200 buttons, I don't want to create rollOver and rollOut cursor changes for each. Again, these are basic button symbols.

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.

I'm new to Flex and am porting a pure Flash/AS3 app to Flex 4.5. I've created a custom MXML component based on BorderContainer
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:BorderContainer
xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" [code]...........
and it would work well, but here in Flex 4.5 I don't know how to do this.Also I've noticed that there is a dropShadowVisible="true" attribute, but not sure if/how it can be used for my purposes.And I'm not sure if scaling up/down a custom component is allowed in flex or I probably should use "Flex Effects" (but how?) and also set disableLayout="true"?

I have created 3 invisible buttons over a graphic. Each has its own button layer and action layer. For each action layer I have used:

When I test the movie I see the hand icon so I know it's an invisible button, but when I click on it, it goes out of the flash play like it wants to go to a browser, but nothing happens. When I upload the files I can see the hand icon again, but nothing happens when I click on the link. I tried the changing the .html file that it is housed in to an .htm file, but that didn't work either.

I have a 2 frame flash movie where the first has a group of names that are clickable hidden by actionscript. You need to click directors, then the names come up and then click the name to go to the 2nd frame of the move which brings in their information dynamically. This has a close button that takes you back to the first frame. My problem is that when going back to the first frame after closing the CV data, it still shows the area where those names were listed as clickable even though they aren't visible.
The code on frame 1 that I think is relative is below. The movie clip that houses the clickable name list is called bodBorderMC and it's loading the directors so I'm not sure if directors in the code works with that.

I don't know if it's an AS3 thing, or a Flash 10 thing, both of which I don't work in frequently..... (usually, I'm working in Flash 8, and AS2 for most of my projects)
Basically, when I have invisible content over a button in my flash movie, the button no longer works. Like I said, it's something that's never been an issue before.
Where it shows up is when I want to make a piece of content visible over a button when the user mouses over the button, so the piece of content would start over the button with its alpha set to 0. I would typically change the visibility of the object I want to make visible when the button is rolled over. But now when that object is over my button at 0 opacity, the button no longer works....and again, I've never had this be an issue before.

I'm somewhat stuck in a project that I have to deliver next Friday. Thing is... I've got to code a webpage like The Killers Band webpage with a panoramic picture moving according to your mouse movements.
I've tried several things already, but I had no success yet. (Everything must be coded in AS2.0, and I'm using Flash CS3 to cover the project).
All I have is the panoramic picture, which I might be able to upload if you ask me to.
Additional info:
I've already converted the background picture into a movie clip symbol. Also, if I ever have to send the picture to anyone, I'll send it as a Private Message, since I can't post links yet.

I know of a couple of methods of implementing an invisible button or "hotspot" or clickable area:
1) Draw a fill region on a Sprite with an alpha of 0.
2) Create a Button with only a hitArea
Which method would be less resource intensive? Since Adobe recommends against using too much alpaha, I image (2) is better. Are there other methods which could be even less resource intensive? In the movie I am doing, there will be many of these on the screen so optimziing for performance is important.

I keep hearing about using a big invisible button on the top layer of your flash movie when you want any click to take you to another website for example. But what Ive done is a little different. My very BOTTOM layer is a background gradient, which is obviously not invisible. In my actionscript I have Gradient.onRelease = function () {getURL... etc etc This seems to work on my computer. The question is, is this a bad practice? Will this fail on some versions of flash players/browsers? Is the invisible button method better? It just seems dumb to do the invisible button thing when i have a perfectly sized background gradient that seems to work.

I thought I had a good hold on how to create buttons from a class, but my invis class will not return the button that is created to my fla. I have been able to access functions of invis class from my fla, even instantiate the object, but none of the button states carry over to the fla. If you can help I'd appreciate it. I placed the code below.
invis class
Code:
package {
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
import flash.display.Shape;
[code]...
The trace seen in the button fla return null, somehow none of the states are applied to the object.
