Is there a way to change mouse cursor from code?For example i have a text field and when people put mouse cursor on it i want it to show the hand not the standart text cursor.There seems to be many tutorials on how to make custom cursors. However I wanted to know are there any default curors to choose from (for example do i have to create my own zoom in curosor?) and most importantly what clases or functions do that.

View 2 RepliesI like the mouse cursor to change to another object (like zoom lens) when rollover a certain area.but only for this area, when rollout of this area the cursor should be as per normal.[code]...
but that means the cursor have to change to a new object throughout the flash.

In Flex 4, how can I change the cursor to a Bitmap image determined at runtime? All the examples I've seen use CursorManager.setCursor to set the cursor to a class specified at compile time.
What I want to do is change the cursor to a bitmap whose bitmapData is determined by the context.

View 1 RepliesAs of Flash 10.2, Flash supports hardware accelerated mouse cursors:[URL]..Unfortunately, the mouse cursor doesn't update until AFTER the mouse moves. You can see this behavior on the web page above. If you click "Set to custom cursor" in the sample app at the bottom of the article, you'll see that the cursor doesn't change until you move the mouse.
Anyone have a trick for updating the mouse cursor immediately, before the user moves the mouse? I tried doing Mouse.hide(); Mouse.show(); but that doesn't work.

I'm making a drawing application, everythings looks and works ok, except for one thing...My mouse cursor is hidden and a paintbrush like cursor follows it. This cursor is a movieclip, because the user chooses a color, and the tip of this paintbrush changes to the selected color.But there's one problem... when I draw to the left the line is drawed with no problem, but when I draw to the right, the line is interrupted, and I don't understand why.I made one experiment, and with no movieclip "attached" to the mouse cursor, the line is drawed with no problem, both to the right and left.

View 1 RepliesI have created a small flash movie where the eyes of the character follow the cursor.

View 1 RepliesHow would you replace the mouse cursor in ActionScript 3? I mean with like a movie clip or a graphic within Flash.
View 1 RepliesI'm making a Myst clone and want the cursor to do different things when it mouses over various objects and regions, for instance:
- Turns into an open hand when over a grabbable item.
- Turns into a right-facing arrow when on the right side of the screen signifying "turn right here".
- Turns into an icon of an inventory object when the object is selected.
How is this done? I found some code that sort of did it, but it was sloppy, the cursor flickered like crazy, and overall it sucked. I want to harness in Flash the same mechanism that makes my cursor turn into the bracket thing when it's over a text field, or a finger when over a link.ALSO I want to be able to make the arrow stay a regular arrow when it's over manipulatable items I want to remain secret.
I write the code:
myMc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,myMcOve r);
function myMcOver (e:MouseEvent):void {
myMc.buttonMode = true;
myMc.useHandCursor = true;
}
but i get the following error: 1119: Access of possibly undefined property buttonMode through a reference with static type flash.display:SimpleButton. / myMc.buttonMode = true; And do not apply the action to turn into a hand on mouse over!

The problem I see with this is that the invisible mouse will quickly move out of the movie and stop tracking.Has anybody dealt with this before? I'm sure I saw a flash toy somewhere that trapped the mouse inside a box, but can't find it now. :(
I would like to fade-off the mouse cursor; I am thinking that the best way is to screencapture an image of the curser during runtime using BitmapData, or some approach similar;
