ActionScript 3.0 :: Making A Movie Clip Appear On Mouse Cursor Location?
Oct 11, 2011
I need to know how to make a movie clip appear exactly where the user clicks.I have a button that is made up of four separate parts across the stage, and when you click a part of it, I'd like for a movie clip to appear on that button, where you just clicked.Rather than creating 4 separate movie clips (and four separate buttons) showing the same thing, can I just make one, and make it move to the location the user has clicked?Please let me know if this makes sense! Essentially, I'd like to know if there is a code that says "Make movie clip appear on location of mouse"

how I can use the location of the mouse to control the alpha of a movie clip. I have 3 images that are the full stage width/height. One image will be in the background and does not need to be changed. However the other images I want to fade in when the mouse is moved from the middle to the left or the right. So I know I need to set a min and max value to be the range of the alpha, but I have never worked with mouse position before. I can't use the mouse over function like many tutorial's show due to images being full screen.

our group want to develop a 3D FPS game on flash 11, but how could we make same user experience as Conter-Strike or those classic FPS games without set mouse cursor location?as I know, both ShockWave and Unity Web Player can lock or set location of mouse cursor.we may considering some sercurity issues of open this API, but we are talking about things that desktop apps can do and web apps can not do.

so the custom cursor I'm using works on the main timeline of my project. However, there are buttons in the application that load in movie clip pop-up windows and when this happens the cursor stays on the main timeline behind the movie clip resluting in the cursor not being seen. This is the code I'm currently using:

I was wondering if there was a way of making your mouse cursor stick to an object for a period of time when clicked?
eg. If i clicked "about" then the mouse would stick to that button while it slid to a new location on the stage. Once the tweening stops, you can move the mouse again.

I'm currently trying to make a class that changes the mouse cursor. I made it in a new class so that I can call it again whenever I needed it, but there are some errors and I don't know how to solve it. The class filename is Cursor. This class is not linked with the fla file.
Here's the ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.ui.Mouse;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class Cursor extends MovieClip {
public function Cursor()
[Code] .....
This class will just let me type Cursor.makeCursor(cursorMovieClip); and the cursor will change. The problem is that Flash does not recognize "addChild" and "stage". Is it because the class isn't connected to the fla? Or do I need to import some stuff in? Also, flash does not recognize "obj" in the code line
ActionScript Code:
var cursor:MovieClip = new obj;

Where do you put your code in flash? Do you put it all on the main timeline? Do you put in on the objects ? Where is the best place and why ? I followed a few tutorials where all of the code was on a layer in the main timeline (for arrangement). I kind of liked that but as I advanced in flash I started having problems with specifying the hole path for every movie clip (sometimes 7,8 embeded movieclips). I find it much more easier to just put the code on the movie clip itself. What is your method and why?

When using 'duplicateMovieClip()' is it possible to specify a path and x and y values on which the clip to be duplicated ? I have searched for the duplicateMovieClip syntax and this is what I found: duplicateMovieClip (target, new name, depth).

I am pretty new to ActionScript 3 and Flash. I don't want my movie clip to play unless the person's mouse curser is on the movie clip for more than a second. If the person just runs their curser over the movie clips really quickly, then it should do nothing. It must be more than a second. How do I code that?

I am trying to attach a movie clip at a specific location on the stage using the following code:attachMovie("plane_mc", "mc", 1, {x:50} );The statement above does attach my MC called plane_mc onto the stage but it won't attach it at the location where I want it to. The x parameter doesn't seem to have any effect whatsovever on the stage location.

I need to write a function which should fix the location of the movie clip on the stage.
public function setCoOrdinates(xpos:Number,ypos:Number,movieName:S tring):Void
{
eval(movieName)._x=xpos;
eval(movieName)._y=ypos;
}
My function is as above. While I use this function in flash I only see the last movieclip on the stage which was passed. Movieclips passed earlier seem to have disappeared from the screen.
setCoOrdinates(20,200,"bButton_mc");
setCoOrdinates(530,100,"fButton_mc");
I see only "fButton_mc" on the stage. Even though I set different xpos and yposs for the movie clip.

Is there a way to contain a custom cursor within a placed (child) movie clip -- changing to the custom cursor when mouse is over the clip -- and then back to a regular cursor when the mouse moves off the clip?

movie clip's alpha to fade to 0 when the cursor enters the stage, and then when it leaves the stage to blend back up to 100% (or do you say '1'?)So far this is the code and FollowTxt will fade out but not back in:
var myFrame:Frame = new Frame();
var myHelp:Help = new Help();
var myFollowTxt:FollowTxt = new FollowTxt();

I tried stopDrag but this merely leaves the movieclip where I executed this code. I want to remove it or at least adjust its position after it's removed as the cursor.

I've made a 30 second *.avi file and converted it to SWF
And then I remembered I need to put link inside the Flash so I decompiled it and put this in *.fla file;
Code:
onMouseDown = function(){
my_url = "http://www.link.link";
getURL("http://www.link.link","_blank");
};
But that doesn't make mouse pointer change to hand when it's over the banner.

Ok so in it's simplest form, i just want to be able to click anywhere in the movie and have a movie clip show up (or duplicate from the library then show) at the exact point where you click, an example for use might be a bullet hole or a stamp tool.

this time, I have a crosshairs custom-cursor (instance name 'crosshairs') that is black, and I want it to turn red whenever it is moved over a target that the user can 'shoot' at.asically, I am figuring that I simply need to perform a hitTest on the 'target' instance and, if it is true, use setRGB to turn the 'crosshairs' instance red. However, as of right now, the crosshairs is always black, whether it is over the target or noP.S. Oh yeah, and is there any way to make the color change / onMouseDown shooting action occur only when the CENTER of the crosshairs is over the target? Y'know, for realism. Well, anyways, cheerio...
