Don't set the cursor within a mouseWithin handler. MouseWithin gets called
REPEATEDLY while the mouse is over the button and it is very wasteful.
If you must change the cursor on rollover, use "on mouseEnter" instead of
"on mouseWithin". I prefer using the cursor of sprite property and setting
it in beginSprite and endSprite (untested off the top of my head):
on mouseEnter me
sprite (the currentSpriteNum).member = member "image2"
end
on mouseLeave me
sprite (the currentSpriteNum).member = member "image1"
end
on beginSprite
sprite(the currentSpriteNum).cursor = 260
end
on endSprite
sprite(the currentSpriteNum).cursor = 0 -- Restore "default" cursor
end
For more details on this topic, see the Direct-L archives over the last
week or so.
