Following menu - problem

1

Hi. I’ve been trying to figure this out a while now, but I can’t find a good solution.

I need to be able to use the buttons, but when the menu keeps easing towards the mouse it’s hard to reach them.
Is it possible to stop the easing once the mouse x and y is eaqual to the menu x and y? And start the easing again on rollOut? How do I do this?

:hoser:

Just tell it to perform a move function if the mouse is outside of the button MC’s width and height. Otherwise it doesn’t follow.


//lower the number faster the movement
speed = 4;
onEnterFrame = function(){
//for x
     if((_xmouse > buttons._x + (buttons._width/2)) || ((_xmouse<         buttons._x - (buttons._widtht/2)){
                buttons._x += (_xmouse - buttons._x)/speed;
     }
//for y
 if((_ymouse > buttons._y + (buttons._height/2)) || ((_ymouse<         buttons._y - (buttons._height/2)){
                buttons._x += (_ymouse - buttons._y)/speed;
     }
}

thanks a lot, really:rock: but honestly - this is not quite what I meant.

I need it to stop when the mouse reaches the center of the menu mc, and “start” moving again when it leaves the whole menu.

Just use hittest

the script isn’t working. syntaxt error.

12

each part seems to have three “(” and only two “)”, but it would not work when I added one more.

allright. I think I’ve figured out the syntax:

//lower the number faster the movement
speed = 4;
onEnterFrame = function(){
//for x
	if((_xmouse > buttons._x + (buttons._width/2)) || (_xmouse < buttons._x - (buttons._width/2))){
		buttons._x += (_xmouse - buttons._x)/speed;
     }
//for y
	if((_ymouse > buttons._y + (buttons._height/2)) || (_ymouse < buttons._y - (buttons._height/2))){
		buttons._x += (_ymouse - buttons._y)/speed;
     }
}

however, the effect isn’t quite as intended (check attachment).

and where do the hittest go?

I am a total newbie, and my english is terrible. thanks for any help:flower:
