Re: FLASH: action >> to follow mouse M.K

[Malte Koehrer]

Actually the principle behind this is that you need to get the x and y's

of your mouse. As this is not directly possible we need to find a work 

around. When you take a full screen button you can be sure it has a

rollover when the mouse is onstage. If you switch the button to

be draggable it moves with the mouse. So now you're able to get x and y of

the object which is moving just like the mouse as it's "sticked" to it.


(After reading the message again: You're using rollover on the full work

area. You don't need to click. The rollover is enough and certain).
