To create a custom mouse pointer in one of your Flash movies, we just need to add a short snippet of ActionScript to a movie clip.
- Create a new Layer on top of all other layers.
- Draw a "mouse pointer" of any shape, color, etc.
- Select the pointer (I click on the keyframe to select everything)
- Convert your pointer to a symbol (movie clip) and call it "Pointer"
- Right-Click the new symbol and Select Actions
- Paste the following code in the Actions
Mouse.hide();
startDrag(this, true);
}
onClipEvent(mouseMove){
updateAfterEvent();
}
______________
Test your movie (CTRL+Enter)
You may need to adjust where the "point" is on your pointer:
- Double-click the pointer to open the clip
- Adjust the "point" to be right on the + sign
- You can also add animation if you would like
