Mouse Follow/stopfollow After Mouse Leaves Object (with Ease)
well, i think the title covers me entirely, i would like some help with a script.
The problem is, i have a scene with objects that at first they are static, when the mouse comes in and makes a move-over the scene and some objects,i have assigned multiple collision to the objects, i want when the mouse moves over a object, the object to follow the mouse,while colliding to all other objects and after a while i would like as the mouse moves away, the following to stop and the objects to return to its original spot with ease.
I know that this is a big one, but i would like some help if i could get

Detect Mouse _x & _y Attach Specific Clip And Have It Follow Mouse
I'm trying to make a clip that will have another clip attached (eventually it'll be a mask) when you roll over it. I want the mouse positon to be determined on rollover and a different clip (with different registration point) to be attached depending on which quadrant you rollover first. IE- you rollover the lower left quadrant of the mc first so an mc with an upper right registration point is attached and follows the mouse.
basically I want it to look like you're pulling a mask from out of nowhere onto the main mc from whatever corner you start on... (make sense?)
i'm trying to reconstruct what you see here (http://www.mullerphoto.com/)
this is the first baby step!
anyhow, here's my AS and i'll attach the .fla any help is great! I have the actionscript dictionary and am not afraid to use it, I just need help with the mechanics of how to actually do this (i.e.- which methods, properties, etc. to utilize) thanks!
Code:
leftfunction = function(){
if (patch._ymouse <= 100){
llowerfunction;
}else{
//this function starts the maskclip coming in from the upper left with a lower right reg point
_root.patch.attachMovie("lowerright", "lrclip", 1);
lrclip._x = _root.patch._xmouse;
lrclip._y = _root.patch._ymouse;
}
}
llowerfunction = function(){
//this function starts the maskclip coming in from the lower left with an upper right reg point
patch.attachMovie("upperright", "urclip", 1);
urclip._x = patch._xmouse;
urclip._y = patch._ymouse;
}
rightfunction = function(){
if (patch._ymouse <= 100){
rlowerfunction;
}else{
//this function starts the maskclip coming in from the upper right with a lower left reg point
patch.attachMovie("lowerleft", "llclip", 1);
llclip._x = patch._xmouse;
llclip._y = patch._ymouse;
}
}
rlowerfunction = function(){
//this function starts the maskclip coming in from the lower right with an upper left reg point
patch.attachMovie("upperleft", "ulclip", 1);
ulclip._x = patch._xmouse;
ulclip._y = patch._ymouse;
}
_root.patch.onRollOver = function() {
if (patch._xmouse <= 150){
leftfunction;
}else{

[F8] Follow The Mouse - Stop Mc At Location Of Mouse On Click
I have an mc that follows the mouse a certain distance on the x in both directions and then eases to a stop when the mouse gets a certain distance.
What I need to do is to have the mc stop on button click at the x position it is at on click. Then, when another button is clicked the animation continues from it's stopped location to the new mouse location. All with easing of course.
Here is the code for the mouse tracking:
Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
speed = 3;
}
onClipEvent (load) {
stageWidth = 700;
imageWidth = 615;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
destx = (stageWidth-imageWidth)*(_root._xmouse/stageWidth)
_x += (destx-_x )/speed;
}
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

TRIG - MC Follow Mouse Rotate Around Mouse Point
I have read and i think i 'fully' understand (unless it gets more complicated or what not) the trig tutorial, on this site.
no offence i cant remeber who's tut.
i can make a movieclip circle another movie clip,static or moving.
but now, i have a movie clip that follows the mouse pointer when the up key is toggled.
and i want this movieclip to rotate around the mouse point,when the left key is either pressed or toggled, and reverse this movement for the right key.
i have tried a few things for this i can not get it to rotate, it just seems to jitter randomly.
i have tried rotating a completely static MC around mose point which also failed..
any help thanks?
this is the code that makes the clip face the mouse, and move to its position.
its a function called from another function.
its followed from a tut but i do understand it. This is not what im having troublewith,this works.
Code:
myRadians = Math.atan2(_root._ymouse-MYCLIP._y, _root._xmouse-MYCLIP._x);
myDegrees = Math.round((myRadians*180/Math.PI))+90;
MYCLIP._rotation = myDegrees;
_root.yMove = Math.round(_root.yChange/20);
_root.xMove = Math.round(_root.xChange/20);
MYCLIP._y += _root.yMove;
MYCLIP._x += _root.xMove;
_root.yChange = Math.round(_root._ymouse-MYCLIP._y);
_root.xChange = Math.round(_root._xmouse-MYCLIP._x);
}
to make it clear what i want, a MC that will circle the mouse point, when key is down or toggled, this movieclip also needs to be capable of moving towards mouse point on key down or toggle.
Cheers.

Changing AS So Mouse Follow Is Switched To Mouse Repel?
So I'm using the .fla attached as a basis for an image scroller (thanks TheCanadian!) and I was just wondering what the process would be to invert it so the "follow" MC is being repelled by the mouse, rather than attracted.
Here's the code for quick reference...
"follow" is the MC following the mouse and "bounds" is the area in which "follow" can move freely.
Code:
follow.onEnterFrame = function() {
this._x += (Math.max(bounds._x + this._width / 2, Math.min(_xmouse, bounds._x + bounds._width - this._width / 2)) - this._x) / 5;
this._y += (Math.max(bounds._y + this._height / 2, Math.min(_ymouse, bounds._y + bounds._height - this._height / 2)) - this._y) / 5;
};
Thanks!

Mouse Follow With Delay When Mouse Over In Certain Area - HELP
Hi actionscript-gods!!!
I got a navigation bar and want a followmouse-object slide along on top of it with a little delay (delay not built in yet) as i move around my mouse in the navigation area. (in adition the object fades out when you don't move the mouse - but that part works and is not important here) My problem is that the object simply won't follow the mouse!!! I hope someone can help me...
Code explanations:
followmouse object = fader
container movie for fader = fadercontainer
Code for first image in _root:
var timeOut;
var maxTime = 2000;
function fadeUp () {
with (fadercontainer.fader) {
if (true == mouseMoved) {
if (_alpha<101) {
_alpha += 10;
} else {
mouseMoved = false;
timeOut = getTimer()+maxTime;
}
}
}
}
Code for fader:
onClipEvent (load) {
_alpha = 0;
function fadeDown () {
if (_alpha>0) {
_alpha -= 10;
}
}
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (true == mouseMoved) {
_root.fadeUp(this);
setProperty ("_root.fadercontainer", _x, "_root._xmouse");
} else {
if (getTimer()>_root.timeOut) {
fadeDown();
}
}
}
onClipEvent (mouseMove) {
if (_root._ymouse>66 && _root._ymouse<110 && _root._xmouse>172 && _root._xmouse<689) {
mouseMoved = true;
}
}
Thanx in advance,
Ralf

Mouse Trailer To Follow Path Instead Of Mouse
I need help taking any old mouse trailer and having it follow a predetermined path (like a simple rectangle) instead of following the mouse cursor. I'm very new to flash and would love to be shown how to do this. I'm not even very clear on how you get a mouse trailer to work let alone disecting it and having it follow a path. I really just want to start with a black background, animate the process of drawing a rectangle, then follow the rectangle with an animation of sparks (I've seen some mouse trailers like this) of some sort (kind of like you're cutting a piece out with a blow tourch), then have the center of the rectangle fall away revealing a mask where I can show a scrolling slideshow. Easy right?! Well I don't think so and I could sure use the help!
Thanks in advance,

Follow Mouse..... Help, Please
Hi,
I want to try this effect. Can anyone help me?
I have circular buttons.
I change colors of the buttons on mouse over. I also have a bigger circle(unfilled) which sits on one of the buttons. Now, If I move my mouse on any other button, the bigger circle should move and sit on the button where the mouse is pointing. (I don't want the bigger circle to trace the mouse throughout the screen.)
How do I do this? I am new to scripting in Flash. Does it require lot of scripting?

Mouse Follow
I have a MC that contains the onClipEvent (enterFrame)action
along with script for a rectangle to follow the mouses position along the x axis. This works, but how do i set parameters to keep it within a box and only follow the mouses position when it enters that box? Hope thats not too confusing. Basically i want the rectangle only to move when the mouse enters the specified hotspot and restrict the rectangles x movement to this hotspot. All help is creatly appreciated!

Mouse Follow Nav Bar
Pls help
I have this arrow which i wish to move from left to right according to the mouse location and stop following when the mouse moves to a certain location. Therefore I tried adding the following to the arrow symbol
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
startDrag(getProperty(_x, _y), true, 0, 389, 550, 389);
}
However, since I used the startDrag script but didn't end with a stopDrag script, I cannot do anything in my movie as it is still dragging. So I thought of changing it to the following:
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
startDrag(getProperty(_x, _y), true, 0, 389, 550, 389);
if (_x <= 379) {
stopDrag ()
}
}
But now the arrow does not move but I can click on buttons and such. Can anyone please help me modify it so that it works but does not do anything to my other objects?
Thanx a milliion!

This is what i want to do: I have a trusstower and sleeveblock. This sleeveblock should "follow" the mouse (but only up and down!!) as the user moves the mouse from topic to topic.
So, can I combine the StartDrag script with a motionguide? How would you do it?

Hi
I have made a simple "follow the mouse" swf.
The MC works just great. I have also added two output windows that show the current position of the MovieClip.
Now here's the problem...My movie size is 650 x 400 pixels...but the readout is in 4 digits...what exactly is happening.
If its of any help, here's the code:
Code:
movie_clip._x = _xmouse;
movie_clip._y = _ymouse;
XPos = getProperty ("movie_clip", _x)
YPos = getProperty ("movie_clip", _y)

Mc Follow Mouse
Hi, i'm trying to make MC follow the mouse. I'm actually following a tutorial, but i still can't get it to work.
here's what i have:
Frame 1 of MC:
shapeX=_parent._x;
shapeY=_parent._y;
targetX=0;
targetY=0;
Frame 2:
targetX=_root._xmouse;
targetY=_root._ymouse;
distX=targetX-shapeX;
distY=targetY-shapeY;
shapeX=Math.round(shapeX+(distX/5));
shapeY=Math.round(shapeY+(distY/5));
trace(targetX);
trace(_root._xmouse);
_parent._x=shapeX;
_parent._y=shapeY;
Frame 3:
gotoAndPlay(2);
Right now the MC doesn't catch up to the mouse when i move it, and i can actually increase the distance between the mouse and the MC when i move it. When i take out the 5 in frame 2 and just have shapeX+dist I get some really weird oscilating thing?
If anyone could help me that would be great.

Follow My Mouse
Hi gang
Are there any basics out there or any "shell templates" that allow you to get creative with mouse trailers?
I am essentially trying to create some kind of subtle mouse interactivity like the ones listed on the sites below:
http://www.jeedub.com/ get in and click on INFO -- This one the guy's eyes always follow the mouse
http://www.thanea.com/ars/ (click on CONTACT) -- This one, these three plant like looking things waive back and forth with the mouse motion
http://www.exopolis.com/site/ enter site, wait until it loads. -- This one there are a bunch of little images that when you take your mouse through them, they spread apart...
So, I am assuming that all of these must have a similar way of coding them right? If someone could let me know the basics to get started it would be greatly appreciated. Tutorials, code snipets, links, fla's... anything would help

I'm trying to design a menu where a box follows the mouse to the menu item when the mouse enters a certain area on screen. I've read through several tutorials on this site and so far I can get the box to move AWAY from the mouse when the mouse enters the area but I cant get it to move TO the mouse.
Here's my Script:
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
if (_root._ymouse > 470 && _root._ymouse < 510) {
_root.xChange = Math.round(_root._xmouse-this._x);
_root.xMove = Math.round(_root.xChange/10);
this._x += _root.xMove;
}
else {
_root.xChange = Math.round(this._x, 807.3);
_root.xMove = Math.round(_root.xChange/10);
this._x += _root.xMove;
}
}
I'm trying to get my box to slide left and right under the mouse as it moves between the 470 and 510 area on the screen.

Follow The Mouse
Hi All,
I'm doing a flash menu for a site and am stuck with a bit of action script. Below is a link to the swf file.
http://www.calicoprint.co.uk/nav.swf
What I am after is for the white bar to follow the mouse when you are over the flash file y axis only (this works on the file), then when you take your mouse away from the file it returns to a specific position.
The action I have so far is attached bellow.
onClipEvent (load) {
_y = 20;
speed = 3;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
endY = _root._ymouse;
_y += (endY-_y)/speed;
}
If this does not make sense, please post to ask for more specific details as i've kind of left this to the last minute.
Many thanks.
