[Xerte] Re: Remove Custom Cursor Outside of SWF

[Julian Tenney]

What event triggers this?

if (custom_cursor_mc._x>+530 || custom_cursor_mc._x<0) {
Mouse.show();
custom_cursor_mc.stopDrag();
//remove custom cursor
custom_cursor_mc.swapDepths(custom_cursor_mc._parent.getNextHighestDepth());
custom_cursor_mc.removeMovieClip();}

Subject: [Xerte] Remove Custom Cursor Outside of SWF

Hi,

I am displaying some SWF's with a custom cursor in Xerte.  (Wizards, Text Flash SWF).  When the custom cursor moves outside of the Flash stage I want the ordinary cursor to reappear so students can move around the Xerte pages.  I tried the following code:

if (custom_cursor_mc._x>+530 || custom_cursor_mc._x<0) {
Mouse.show();
custom_cursor_mc.stopDrag();
//remove custom cursor
custom_cursor_mc.swapDepths(custom_cursor_mc._parent.getNextHighestDepth());
custom_cursor_mc.removeMovieClip();}

I have the code for the custom cursor in an onClipEvent on the cursor mc (yes I know Julian - try to keep the code in the timeline......):

onClipEvent (load) {
Mouse.hide();
}
onClipEvent (mouseMove) {
updateAfterEvent();
_x = _parent._xmouse;
_y = _parent._ymouse;
}

Any ideas where I am going wrong?

Many thanks in advance.

Deborah
