This might be a bit cumbersome but less processor intensive. Instead of using MOUSE_MOVE, create two Sprites on the stage. One as a content pane and other as a custom cursor pane. Then add all content including the combo box to the content pane and the cursor to the cursor pane. I can't say for sur
