View 7 RepliesI have a flash that has a background symbol that responds to CLICK event. On top of that symbol I have a sprite that contains a Bitmap with transparent pixels. Both of them are added to the stage, so they are not related directly.
I want clicks on the transparent pixels on the sprite to go straight through to the background. I have read about mouseEnabled / mouseChildren but have not been able to make these work. The symbol ignores the mouse events when I use them, but does not pass it along as if its transparent.
Is this possible to do with flash? Or will I have to re-route mouse events?
I have this code is AS3

But unfortunately, the ship does not follow mouse rotation. The ship only rotates with respect to the mouse when you move the ship, not when you move the mouse.
how to make the camera follow my hero (mc), I think the problems involve me using the mouse to move my player instead of the keyboard. This is my code:
var distx:Number;
var disty:Number;
var gravity = 0.6;
[code]....
The result is my Hero following my mouse and when I click it jumps. But the camera is not following it.

To do this i obviously need to make the camera follow my character. The problem is; i simply don't know how.

I'm not sure what to call this particular way of making the movieclip follow the mouse.When the mouse moves up, the movieclip plays through the frame. If the mouse moves down, the movieclip plays in reverse? I think that's how it works.

View 17 RepliesI'm making a flash page with a basket movie clip that follows my mouse. The basket has a stop action on frame one so it stays there unless directed otherwise. Then I have a movie clip of a green berry that I made into a button (titled gb1). I need to make it so that when that is clicked it makes the basket go to the next frame (numbers change to show how many berries were collected). Here is my (unsuccessful) code as of now.
//1.
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,followBas ket);
//2.
function followBasket(event:Event):void {
var dx:int = basket.x - mouseX;

I found this tutorial [URL] and is wondering if I could limit the area where the clip can follow? I'm planning to have my cartoon's EYEBALLS follow the mouse move.
View 1 RepliesI have made a simple Drag and Drop map, where its the map being dragged by the mouse. The thing is, i need to have a grid of buttons on this map, which you can click. But since im dragging the actual map, my buttons wont follow. They stay where they are.An example would be the united states world map, then each state is a button i can click. A problem would be that if the entire map is covered in buttons, then my mouse cant drag the background map as im selecting a button when i drag. perhaps i can make the buttons drag the map instead?This is the code for dragging the map:
Code:
Map.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, grabMe);
Map.buttonMode = true;[code]..........
I've modified the code snippet "Bring Object to the Front" to bring a given stage symbol to the front on mouse over. My question is, what code do I add to make the symbol go to the back on mouse out? My code is below -- exact same as the code snippet in CS5, but with MOUSE_OVER in place of CLICK.

I'm, trying to create a duplicate symbol and then be able to drag the symbol around the screen.I have an image - once converted to a button and on the stage as paddock_btn. The other converted to paddock_mc in the library, with a linkage identifier of "paddock".I want to be able to click the button, and create a duplicate, which can be dragged and placed on the screen.Unfortunately, I don't get any output errors here.
Code:
//create a function to duplicate paddock
function dupe_paddock():Void {
i = i + 1;

Let's say I have named the instance "Image_mc".Does anyone have the actionscript for how to do this? Do you attach it to the object or to a keyframe on a separate actions layer?

View 1 RepliesI ve got a drag and drop code working, but what I really want to do is have a check answers button that tells the user, you have none correct, or two correct or all wrong... I have one target area, and 3 correct answers (out of 7) so I would like to let the user put as many ansers on the target as they want and then check if they have any correct, also a reset code would be nice to put everything back where it started... I tried to break my code up but the events then went mad, Here is what i have so far, it works instantly and lets crrect answers stay and incorrect bounce back..
stop();
yes1.visible=false;
allcorrect.visible=false;
doit.text="drag over the words that mean Vision";
