I don´t know if this is known or if it could be usefull to someone. You
can cheat your sprites. I tried the following script and it is very
amusing to me. It beeps on mouseEnter.
on beginSprite me
mySprite = sprite(me.spritenum)
end beginSprite me
on mouseEnter me

why don´t you set the location of the sprites? Do you need to change the

Ralf.
When I click on sprite(2) then sprite(3) moves to sprite(2) using this
code
sprite(3).rect sprite(2).rect
That works fine, except that sprite(3) quickly
I made an animated cursor. (Insert / Media Element / Cursor...)
The cursor flickers badly. And when I move the mouse very fast,
the lower part of the cursor disappears.
Can this be improved?

Hi Anna.
attach this behavior to sprite 3:
-- mySprite means sprite(3)
property mySprite
on mouseDown me
mySprite = sprite(me.spriteNum)
mySprite.loc = sprite(2).loc
end
When you have problems like this, it is a good idea to make a new movie
and test the new script.
Then go back to your
Fonts on Win and Mac almost never look the same. This is not only
in Director. Have you checked the fonts on both platforms in any
other program?
There are ways to manipulate the fonts and the spacing in
Macromedia Fontographer. But this is complicated. You could also

Hi Pytkin.
I have never had a crash when selecting or embedding a font.
The problem with the national characters certainly is no Director
problem.
If the national characters work fine in any other program (MS-word for
example)
but not in Director, write your text in the other program, then copy

I know how to drag them but not return it to the position.

you could use this behavior for the sprite.

Is it possible to embed bitmap fonts?
I want to embed a bitmap font called Rosie. It is a very cool font

You can download it at:

The font is installed in the system. but when i choose Insert / Media

I want to make a pendulum. the motion should involve

before, please help me with the formula.
i tried:

are globals really slower than properties?

Hi Everyone.
What is the easiest way to calculate an angle?
I have three sprites on the stage. The first even (through mySprite and
A_Sprite)
and the second even (through mySprite and B_Sprite) form an angle at
mySprite.
I want to calculate that angle in degrees. The point of origin is on the
