How To Cause A Mouse Trail To Change Scale On Mouse Down Only
I'm still very new to AS, but I have a project I need to complete for work. I have some code for a mouse trail that is working well, but now I need the trail effect to scale up by about 200 pixels (or 6 to 7 times) when the mouse is clicked and held/dragged and go back to original size when the mouse is released. I can't seem to get this to work. Any help with how this should be done? Code is below.
Thank you!

var cursor:MovieClip;
var particle:MovieClip;

function initializeMovie():void {
cursor = new Cursor();
addChild(cursor);
cursor.enabled = false;
Mouse.hide();
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, dragCursor);
}

function dragCursor(event:MouseEvent):void {
cursor.x = this.mouseX;
cursor.y = this.mouseY;
}

initializeMovie();

var alphaRate:Number = .02;
var scaleRate:Number = .01;

var particleTimer:Timer = new Timer(20);
particleTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, createParticle);

function createParticle(event:TimerEvent):void {

particle = new Particle();
particle.x = this.mouseX;
particle.y = this.mouseY;
addChild(particle)
particle.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, animateParticle);

}

function animateParticle(event:Event):void
{
if(event.target.alpha > 0)
{
event.target.y += 1;
event.target.alpha -= alphaRate;
event.target.scaleX -= scaleRate;
event.target.scaleY = event.target.scaleX;
}
else
{
removeChild(getChildByName(event.target.name));
event.target.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME , animateParticle);
}
}

particleTimer.start();

Any Way To Change The Appearance Of The Mouse?
Hey yall. I'm still new at all of this. I'm making a tutorial for a software program in windows. I want it to be user active. I want them to be able to push the butons for themselves from the Internet and to be able to draw in the program (Kinda like the paint program). Is there any way to change the appearance of the mouse, and, is there anyway they can draw in the program from the Internet? Sometimes I'm just beside myself because I just can't realize how powerful FlashMX is. If yall can help, or point me to a site where I can learn more about this I would appreiate it. Thanks!

Change Mouse Help Needed
Hello,

I have a movie where the mouse is an object, which works well, but then in the lower left hand corner of the movie I have two buttons. How can I switch the mouse so that when the user is over the button the mouse is no longer the object and rather just a normal mouse (hand) to indicate they can click?

[F8] Is There A Way To Change Mouse Position?
Hi, I've been trying to set my mouse position onto a certain part of my movie. It's like when you start an application the mouse automatically focus on a button or something like that.
I have looked in the documentation and so far couldn't find a way to do this. _xmouse & ymouse is a read only variable so you can't set the value and you can only get the mouse position and not set them.
Is it possible to change the mouse position ?

Can I CHANGE The Mouse Position Using AS?
I am currently writing a Break Out or Arkanoid type of game where the user moves a paddle to stop the ball from falling off the edge.
I am currently having trouble with moving the paddle (using the mouse).
The problem is, if the mouse starts at the left edge of the movie, then there is no way for the user to move the mouse (which starts in the center) to the left side of the screen, since if the mouse goes any further, it leave the current window (and is no longer detected by flash).
So, it is possible to change the current mouse position so that it is in the center of the screen?

Change Mouse Pointer
Hullo,

I'm slightly new to all this, so this question might have an obvious answer. I have a Movie Clip (just a still image), to which I've added a MouseEvent.CLICK event. The problem is that the user has no way of knowing they can click on it as the pointer stays an arrow.

My question is, can I use ActionScript 3 to make the mouse pointer into a hand when it passes over the MovieClip?

Thanks,

Paul

No Change To Mouse During Rollover
Hey there folks. So I am making a site that has some easter eggs (extra trival stuff) in it. Now they are very subtle and I don't want the user to know what activated them. But the only two ways I know to make an animation play is by either a button, or by giving a movie clip a rollover function. Anybody here know how to make the mouse stay the same during the rollover?

Mouse And Change Of Perspective
hi, I was just wondering if there is a way to tie the mouse position on the stage to a frame. I want to create something that appears to change perspective as you move your mouse across it. I made the change of perspective by simply creating a tween within the MC, but need to do the mouse part.
Many Thanks

Change Mouse Animation Direction
I want to have my dog walking with the cursor.

I have an animation locked to the movement of the mouse. It is also locked to the x,y cords of the stage (so it only goes left and right). What I cant figure out is, making the animation flip when I move the cursor in the opposite direction (when I move the mouse to the left The dog needs to face left, and face right when the mouse is moving right).

Oh yeah and I'd like the animation to stop when the user stops the mouse movement.

If someone could explain or point me to a tutorial I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks

Image Change On Mouse Click?
So i have this movie, there is nothing in it, its name is "1". When i load the swf there is a picture there, because the action in frame one set to:

movie = 3;
loadMovie("images/"+movie+".jpg", "1");

So it loads picture 3.jpg, which works fine. However, i have a button, and when i click it i have:

on (press) {
movie = 4;
}

So, why doesn't the picture change to picture 4.jpg? I tried it with text in a text box, and it worked pefect. This whole movie is only 1 frame, so i tried setting it to 2 frames and have it just keep cycling. How i have it set up now (whats above) works. But when it loads frame 1 the picture gets set back to 3.jpg (understandably). So i dont know what i need to do to get it to work.

Only other thing I need to know for this project, is how to mouse over text and have it change color as the mouse hovers it, so people are aware that it is actually a link and not just normal text.

Mouse Image Change When Clicked
Hello, thanks for reading. I've got this:

onClipEvent (load) {
Mouse.hide();
}
onClipEvent (mouseMove) {
setProperty("", _x, getProperty("_level0",_xmouse));
setProperty("", _y, getProperty("_level0",_ymouse));
}

What I would like to happen is that when I click the mouse, it changes the image.

I've got the mouse as a movie clip with an "off" image with a stop on that frame and an "on" image with no action.

I thought it would be a this.gotoandplay(2), but I can't figure it out. I just need the on image to be on for a quick frame.

Thanks for the help.

Change Other Buttons Colors On Mouse Over?
Hey guys,
I have very little flash experience so please bear with me.

I have 4 buttons in a row that are all different colors. I want to have it so when I mouse over / click one button, the other 4 change to the same color as it then return to their original states when the mouse moves off.

I tried just drawing the effect i wanted in the up,over,down frames for each button (and placing all the buttons in the same layer) but because of the arrangement only the front button works.

I would appreciate any help you can provide.

Gallery | Mouse Y Position | Change | How ?
Hi,

I found a nice little gallery browser in the movie section that i'd like to deconstruct and change a little.

My problem is this, the scrolling gallery is currently relative to the mouses y position of the movie itself. I want to get the scroller to be relative to the green bar (please see file) so as the user can use the green bar to perform the same action.

http://www.thedaveidentity.co.uk/web/gallery.zip

Hope you can solve this for me, i've tried, but given my limited understanding its beyond me.

Kindest regards -David
