Re: FLASH: Intelligent mouse cursors

[Tai]

Hi Mike,


Set Variable: "oldx" = xpos

Set Variable: "oldy" = ypos

Set Variable: "xpos" = getproperty("",_x)

Set Variable: "ypos" = getproperty("",_y)

If (xpos > oldx)

      Set Property ("", Rotation) = 0

Else If (xpos < oldx)

      Set Property ("", Rotation) = 180

End If


if you put that inside a loop in a movie clip which your draggin... with

an arrow which originally points to the right, you'll find that it

changes depending on which direction your mouse is moving in...


it's a very simple implementation I'm sure that you can expand on it

from there... just requires more else if checks...


give me a yell (off list) if you want the fla I created, or if I didn't

make sense


cheers

Tai :)
