Hi list,
I posted the following question a few days ago on Flash Tiger but got
no response there.
Anybody here knows?
I have an mc attached to the mouse as a custom cursor.
Somehow I'm not able to click on buttons etc. in this setup anymore.
It seems as if the display items under the cursor do not recieve
moude events anymore because the custom cursor is intercepting the
clicks, although I set both _customCursor.mouseEnabled and
_customCursor.mouseChildren to false.
When I offset the _customCursor slightly from the actual
event.stageX and event.stageY position all works well.
What am I missing?
Here's the code:
//customCursor is called in mouseUp functions of individual tools
private function customCursor(event:MouseEvent):void {
Mouse.hide();
for(var kwik:uint = 0 ; kwik < _lengthAll ; kwik++) {
if(_allToolsArray[kwik].name != event.target.name)
//do nothing for the moment
} else if(_allToolsArray[kwik].name == event.target.name) {
_customCursor = _allToolsArray[kwik];
_customCursor.mouseEnabled = false;
_customCursor.mouseChildren = false;
_customCursor.backDrop.visible = false;
addChild(_customCursor);
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE,redrawCursor);
_customCursor.visible = true;
} else {
trace("Clip to drag not found: " + _customCursor.name);
}
}
}
//redrawCursor is called by customCursor
private function redrawCursor(event:MouseEvent):void {
_customCursor.x = event.stageX+0;
_customCursor.y = event.stageY-0;
}
thanks,
