For a couple of reasons, I don't want to make my sprite moveable, yet I do
want the user to be able to move it with the mouse. So I use this script:
on mouseDown me
pLeftMouseOffset = the mouseH - sprite(me.spriteNum).loc[1]
pTopMouseOffset = the mouseV - sprite(me.spriteNum).loc[2]
if the stillDown then
locLeft = the mouseH - pLeftMouseOffset
locTop = the mouseV - pTopMouseOffset
sprite(me.spriteNum).loc = point(locLeft, locTop)
end if
end mouseDown
It generally works, but when you move the mouse quickly, the handler stops
working. I get the same results placing this script in a mouseWithin handler.
I remember a discussion a while ago about how often mouse events are polled
at various frame rates. The problem I'm describing is much worse at 3
f/sec, and better--but still a problem--at 20 f/sec.
What's the solution? Thanks!
