Hmmm... never tried that before, but how about this:
You can't change the mouseLoc with the keyboard, unless you have an Xtra
(Buddy, SetMouse etc.), but you can have a workaround.
1. Change the cursor to a blank (cursor 200), so there is not visible
cursor.
2. Make a graphic of a mouse pointer and move IT around the stage with the
keyboard, to simulate the mouse.
3. Use a key, such as "Space" or enter, and capture it with the
keyDownScript, or even simply an "on keyDown" handler in the movie script.
4. Test the loc (or locH/locV) of your graphic on the keyDown handler, and
if it matches that of a sprite, send it a #mouseDown command. You can do
something like this (totally untested):
on keyDown
repeat with spr = the lastChannel down to 1
if sprite gCursorSprite within spr then
sendSprite (spr, #mouseDown)
exit repeat
end if
end repeat
end
And then on the sprites that need to be click, put a behavior including the
usual #mouseDown.
I guess you can also do rollovers and stuff in a similar way...
Or you can probably find some Xtra that does that for you (buddy Api, maybe)
