Mouse.hide Doesn't Hide Mouse
I am developing for a touchscreen and trying to hide the mouse cursor - completely.
But mouse.hide is not doing it's job.
I am trying to go to the Flash 5 standalone player format.
I created an actions layer in the main movie and just inserted the mouse.hide command into it but, alas, there is no hiding going on.
The windows cursors (win98) have all been given a blank icon
Which leaves flash only displaying a cursor (that stupid finger) when a button is pressed - the finger pops up and then instantly dissapears
But its ugly, and unnecessary for Touch Screen navigation
if anyone has any suggestions . . .

No problems so far, but when I move my cursor out of the flasharea into the html, the mouse is still hidden!!!
Can anyone tell me how to solve this problem?
Thx a lot

Hide Mouse
Is there a way that i can detect if the mouse hasn't moved for say 3 seconds and then hide it. Then when it moves again make it show again like windows media player and some of the other video players do it when it is in full screen?
This one doesn't need to work only for full screen. It can work whenever.

Hide Mouse
how can i hide the mouse and replace it with a MC i made?
Mouse.hide();
If this hides the mouse pointer and replaces it with a MC that drags around.code:
onClipEvent (load)
{
Mouse.hide();
startDrag (this, true);
Is there a way I could then hide the MC (or stop it moving) and bring back the mouse pointer. I tried this AS on the MC. It brought the mouse pointer back but didn't hide or stop the MC from dragging around.
code: on (release){
Mouse.show();
startDrag (this, false);
}
Mouse Hide
Could someone have a quick look at my project file and see why the mouse hide is not hiding the cursor. Its quite important as otherwise it would reveal the answers to the game (not that its hard in the first place)
Many Thanks

Mouse.hide
I posted this in newbie shock but I'm not getting any answers, so forgive me if this is out of place. I'm trying to hide the mouse in the lower half of a scene, and show it in the upper half. My scene is 160 pixels. my code is this.
//this hides the mouse
if (_ymouse > 80)
{
Mouse.hide()
}
else
{
Mouse.show()
}
//this turns the symbol into a mask.
xray_mc.setMask(masker_mc)
//this tells the symbol to follow the mouse by tracking its coordinates.
masker_mc.onEnterFrame = function()
{
this._x = _xmouse;
this._y = _ymouse;
}
My problem is that the mouse is either hidden all the time or shown all the time, depending on what value I assign to the if condition. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Hide Mouse, But How Make Your Own ?
Several times you see sites and ads where the windows cursor is replaced by an other cursor.
but how ?
I know that at the first frame you should put this code:
Mouse.hide ();
but that only makes it disappear, how do i put the cursor i want ?
thx for reading and keep flashing !
Hide And Show Mouse?
I have a movie with some buttons in it. When the mouse i over a button I want the cursor to hide and change. I've solved that. But how do I do to show the cursor when the mouse rolls out?
I've done it like this:
In the button I've put a MC in the "Down" frame and that MC has this code in it:
onClipEvent (load) {
Mouse.hide();
this.startDrag(true);
updateAfterEvent();
}
When I move around the cursor I can't see any cursor now! How do I do to show the cursor? And where should I put the script?

anybody has an idea why?
On Mouse Over, Hide 2nd Button?
I have a toggle switch (3 positions). It has a RED position, a GREEN position, and it's default position is WHITE.
Follow so far?
Depending on mouse placement, the RED or the GREEN position is activated. Red's hit area is to the left, Green's is to the right within the same image...
My question is: How do I make it so on the mouseover of say, the RED area, the GREEN area dissapears
Since I have two buttons on separate layers, the top layer buttons UP state is always blocking the lower layers' state-even if it is the one being toggled. Is there an actionscript that says something like: "on mouseover, hide button #2" or somehting like that?
Thanks.

Hide Mouse Then Animate
I want to make the mouse disappear and be taken over by an mc that animates to a position and then begins an animation, i have an mc called mouse_mc, inside its timeline is the animation i want to play. On the MC there is this code:
code:
onClipEvent (load) {
targetx=50;
targety=50;
speed=2;
Mouse.hide();
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
_x+=(targetx-_x)/speed;
_y+=(targety-_y)/speed;
}
and on a frame there is this code:
code:
trace(math.round(mouse_mc._x));
if(math.round(mouse_mc._x) == 404)
{
_root.mouse_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);
}
note: the trace says that the mc always moves to 404.
The problem is that the mouse_mc animation never starts, the mc moves into position and then nothing, any ideas?
Mouse.Hide & DuplicateMovieClip Help
Hey everyone here’s the deal;
In my movie I have attached a clip to my mouse (drop_mc) and when this rolls over certain hot spots I want to load my mc which is a 3 second animated ripple effect (ripple_mc). The problem is that I need this effect to start from the centre of my mouse clip and if the mouse rolls over other hot spots then more ripple_mcs are produced. And as a safety measure only 5 ripple_mcs can be on screen at once.
Thanks - itchyjam
Here’s the code so far;
Code:
stop();
//hide the mouse
Mouse.hide()
// attach drop_mc to mouse
drop_mc.onEnterFrame = function(){
this._x = _xmouse
this._y = _ymouse
};
// rollOver hot spots
for(var i=0; i<25; i++){
boxHolder["sq"+i].onRollOver = function(){
//load ripple_mc
}
}
Mouse.hide () Question
Hi,
I am using Flash MX 2004 Pro. Just completed a presentation that uses the mouse.hide () function. That part works great. But I really don't need it to hide permanently.
I have been looking for a way to hide the mouse after it is inactive for a certain period of time, then reappear when it is moved.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
TJdub
Mouse.hide Along With Constrain
ok I'm creating one of those Claw vending machines where you grab a toy with the claw and drop it in the hole.
I have the machine and a movie clip called "crane" which is the claw.
I have it working pretty well, but my problem is while I'm moused over the area that I want to drag the claw I still see the mouse pointer (not the hand) even though I'm using Mouse.hide("crane"); Here is the code I'm using on the mouseover button:
Code:
on (rollOver) {
Mouse.hide();
startDrag("crane", true, 166, 3.5, 368.7, 3.5);
}
on (rollOut) {
Mouse.show();
stopDrag();
}
Anyone know how to fix this?
Mouse.hide() PC Problem
Hi guys,
Got quite a simple problem I think. I am creating a custom cursor using the startDrag and stopDrag functions and Mouse.hide() and Mouse.show(), however the Mouse.hide() does not seem to work on a PC.
Any ideas why? Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
James
[F8] Mouse Hide Problem
I'm hiding the mouse in a little banner on a homepage (units.osu.edu) and it is making the mouse flicker and hide elsewhere instead of just over the swf. Any ideas how to help this? If not, I might just drop the mouse hide/custom cursor altogether.
Mouse Hide/Show
Mornin all.
I have a scneario where i want the mose to hide if it is inactive for a set period, say 3 seconds, but reappears if the user moves the mouse (similar scenario can be seen in windows media player full screen mode)
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Mouse.hide And MouseEvents?
I have hidden my mouse and am using a custom cursor, but when I hide the mouse none of my "MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER/OUT", "MouseEvent.CLICK", and "MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP" events work anymore. Is there anyway to get these to work without capturing the mouse click's x/y coords and converting that to the movie?
Thanks,
maji
Hide Mouse Pointer

Mouse.hide() Problem
Afternoon everyone,
I’ve got a problem with hiding and showing the mouse pointer. I’m using “Mouse.hide()” to hide the pointer which works fine, but it won’t reappear when it leaves the stage. Interestingly though, it does flicker as I move the mouse. This is the code I’m using:
Code:
if (mouseX >= 0 && mouseX <= stage.stageWidth && mouseY >= 0 && mouseY <= stage.stageHeight)
Mouse.hide();
else
Mouse.show();
I thought that I could hide the pointer on MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, but there doesn’t appear to be a MOUSE_IN event that I can detect to show the pointer again. Does anyone know where I’m going wrong?
Cheers,
Mike.
Hide Mouse Pointer
This may seem like a simple question, but i am having the hardest time comopleting this task. I am trying to hide the mouse pointer within the entire flash movie. Is there anyway to complete this on load?
Hide Mouse Then Animate
I want to make the mouse disappear and be taken over by an mc that animates to a position and then begins an animation, i have an mc called mouse_mc, inside its timeline is the animation i want to play. On the MC there is this code:
ActionScript Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
targetx=50;
targety=50;
speed=2;
Mouse.hide();
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
_x+=(targetx-_x)/speed;
_y+=(targety-_y)/speed;
}
and on a frame there is this code:
ActionScript Code:
trace(math.round(mouse_mc._x));
if(math.round(mouse_mc._x) == 404)
{
_root.mouse_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);
}
note: the trace says that the mc always moves to 404.
The problem is that the mouse_mc animation never starts, the mc moves into position and then nothing, any ideas?
Hide Sub-Navigation On Mouse Out?
Can anyone figure this one out? I'm completely stuck on this - I need the subnavigation to hide on mouse out. If the user rolls over the main navigation - the sub pops up and is very annoying and confusing to the viewer. I can get the subnavigation to disappear on mouse click but when I set it to hide on mouse out, it wants to hide every time the user moves between the different buttons. Probably confusing to understand without seeing the file. I put it up on www.imicci.com/file/file.fla.zip Can someone please check it out for me? I'm so frustrated with this. If there's some other way to post this flash file I can do that too - just let me know. Thank you everyone!
