Flash :: Center Movieclip At Mouse Position
Oct 22, 2011
I am using Action Script 3.0 to animate an instance (MovieClip class) to follow the mouse positron the thing is, the left corner of the instance follows the mouse courser. Now there is a cross on the to left corner and my guess would be that the mouse follows that cross, but i can not change the position of the cross within the instance/ original object. Does anyone know how to make the center of that instance follow the mouse cursor?

How to position an mc on the center coordinates of another mc embedded inside. inside of my main mc I have an image and mcs above. I want to make a button that says something like: On release center main mc on coordinates of mc inside of main mc. So far I have some code for an on event function:
main_image_mc.onEnterFrame = function() {
main_image_mc._x;
main_image_mc._y;
speed1 = 8;
function moveIt(endX, endY) {

Essentially what I'm trying to do is nearly the same as this: http:[url].......However I'd like to ease/tween the movieclip position and rotation to the mouse position.The main issue I see is trying to get the current movieclip rotation and the target rotation,then tween it cockwise or counterclockwise from current to target.The way a movieclips rotation uses positive and negative numbers throws it off.If you just want to lock the mc rotation to the mouse rotation its fine, but once you try to tween it you run into difficulties. So the end effect would be like if you were to draw imaginary clockwise circles around the object, it should just keep rotating clockwise towards the mouse. Then if you started going counter clockwise it should just keep easing counter clockwise to the mouse.

I need to move a movieclip based on mouse x position. Like this site [URL] - Which I built using a flashloaded app, but I need more control in this project so I'd like to code it without the app. Basically, I have an image of a boy (left) and a girl (right) and I want to move the boy slightly toward the girl when the mouse goes right and slightly away when the mouse goes left. But only about 25-50 pixels in each direction.
I've cobbled some code together from google searching and rough ideas, and it works in a way, but the boy jumps about 400 pixels to the left on the initial mouse move and then floats a bit too far right and left from there. Here's what I've got on the boyMC:

I have recently followed a tutorial to make a movieclip in flash that makes buttons spin around a point depending on the mouse position. I have made my own version off this and would like to use it in a full flash website that i am making at the moment.
The only problem that i am having is with aligning this clip and as it is made up of script i cant physicly drag it to were i want it. I understand how to alighn this with x/y positioning but when i preview the flash in a web browser it is positioned correctly but then when i 'full screen' the browser this clip jumps about 4 inches down the page.

Okay I have a script in which I have added an image to the stage. It is absolute centered. I then have another with is on top but much bigger. I would like the big image to move opposite of my mouse position on the smaller image. ie: cursor is on bottom left corner the bottom left corner of the larger image is in the same spot. And the same thing for any other area.
I have tried many different ways but to no avail. I have done research but no one has been able to give me a solid answer. Anyone know of a way to accomplish this. Keep in mind this it needs to work regardless of the image size.

A simple question, "How can position my flash in the middle of the window browser."Now do I need to add an action sctipt to the site or it's something to do with publish sitting?

I am using AS2 and I'm looking for a way to scale an MC from the center meaning that the width will expand equally on both sides.For example .. If the movie clips needs to expand +10 then it would be +5 on the left and +5 on the right.So, in order to simulate the movie clip going forward the position on the left would offset -5 then scale.

when I create a textfield and use the centering property in the following way, I position it at x=0... but the middle of the text isn't at zero; seemingly the left border of a large... area of some sort is at x=0.

how can i test the position of the mouse inside the area of a specific movieclip WITHOUT using rollover and rollout events?
the movieclip is the irregular shape (star)
i need to do some action according to the position of mouse (inside/outside of the movieclip area) but i can not use rollover event because i have a button placed over the movieclip.

I am looking for direction to this old UFC effect - [URL] that appears on the main page. It is movieclips rotating on different axis based on the mouse position. So far I have found this script:
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE,EnterFrame);
function EnterFrame(e:Event)
{
mc.rotation = (180*Math.atan2(mouseY-mc.y,mouseX-mc.x))/Math.PI + 90;
}
But this only rotates on x and y. What's a way to approach this effect?

This seems like it should be simple, but... I've been trying to figure out how to do the following, and I can't seem to make it work. It all works except for the hit test part. I have a working drag and drop application. I need something different to happen when the user drops an object while the mouse x,y is, or is not over a certain (very irregularly shaped) bitmap inside a movieClip. how to do this? I have found some complicated ways to hit test between 2 bitmaps, but not 1 bitmap and mouse x,y.

I want to ask how to show/ hide movieclip by one click in the same position of the mouse cursor .
The idea is that i have 10 square shapes and i want to click one of them to put a small circle inside the square and do the same with the other squares .

I have a basic script that moves a movieclip to the opposite Y position of the mouse pointer:
Code:
var cP = this.createEmptyMovieClip("centerPoint", 1);
cP._x = Stage.width / 2;
cP._y = Stage.height / 2;
var myBox = cP.attachMovie("boxMC", "myBox", 2, {_y:cP._y});
cP.onMouseMove = function() {
myBox._y = (cP._ymouse * -0.9);
};
Everything works great, but I'd really love to be able to ease the box to it's Y position, rather than moving it to it's final position immediately. I'm having a difficult time with it because the box is moved based on the mouse position, which obviously doesn't ease.

I am having difficulty with getting the playhead to move inside a movieclip based on the horizontal or vertical position of the mouse on the screen. I can get the horizontal motion to move the playhead, but I can't get the vertical movement to do the same. I have attached the document class .as file for it.

How would you force a mouse follow movieclip to snap to a x y position if it reaches x y boundaries or perhaps if a button is released the movie clip snaps to a x y position? Of course if the mouse returns to x y boundaries I'd like for the movie clip to follow again.
Right now this is the code I'm using to make the movieclip follow the mouse within x y boundaries:
Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
_x = 0;
_y = 0;

The other is a scrub that manipulates a MovieClip, but tracks a change in mouse position from click to release, instead of tracking the changes in position of a slider playhead. But here is the download for that one:(sorry not a link due to not having over 50 posts yet, you will need to copy and paste)I have found plenty of AS1+2 ways of doing this idea, yet just haven't found any solid AS3 versions.I am currently in a class to learn Actionscript and have tried to figure out this problem yet I am just not yet to that level.

Basically the x position of the mouse should control the play position of a movie. Do I need something like an event handler (I'm not sure exactly what these do, but I've seen similar scripts that seem to use them).

I have an Input Text area that users can edit and then submit. I need to be able to show, on screen, the cursor's current position as they type. I don't need to know where the mouse is but all work-arounds I've found so far can only tell me the mouse position. The font for the text is 'courier' or 'courier new' and the Input Text area is scrollable.

I am editing an XML gallery and I have some questions..I wonder how I can position my images in the center of the screen. The images are all the same size (800x600) and I need them to display in the center of the screen.I played around with the code and I found out that when I change the Width and Height, the images starts to move (finally)... But it's very hard to find the correct position, so how can I just get it to the horizontal en vertical center of the screen/file?
Here's what the code looks like:
Code:
<gallery dir="Photos/">
<img id='0' align="center" file="foodcongres2009_1.jpg" width='1024' height='768'>
Test foto nummer 1
</img>
[code].....
And next... I have just two arrows (left, right), but when I click on the left one (previous), it goes to the next image instead of the previous one.. How about that?

I've had a brief look around but couldn't find anything on this. I'm wondering if it is possible in flash ( I use CS3/AS3) to set the mouse position in the window, mouseX and all that are just read-only. Moving the cursor off the screen can become quite a problem for the game I'm making, so for example I'd like to be able to snap the cursor position to the centre.
