While MouseDown

[W3bDevil]

'Lo

I'm kinda stuck with a little script I'm writing

I've already got a function defined that duplicates an MC... with some extra code too, but I want the function to be run every time the frame refreshes whilst the mouse-button is held down

I figured its got something to do with the Mouse.AddListener() method, but I can't figure it out

Right now I'm using:

Brush.onMouseDown = function(DupStroke) {
    n++;
    rokx = _root._xmouse;
    roky = _root._ymouse;
    duplicateMovieClip("Stroke", "stroke"+n, n);
    _root["stroke"+n]._x = rokx;
    _root["stroke"+n]._y = roky;
}; 

But this only works once... when the button is clicked

I want to be to duplicated whilst the button is held down

Any ideas? (this has gotta be an easy one)

Hmm, it would appear another posting appears from me directly below this one from me, but with no content whatsoever... Probably a bug in the BB software... no, I was not double-posting for attention)

well if u want it to keep duplicating while the mouse is held down try adding a timer and checking if the mouse is still down within a certain time and if it is then run the function again

code:

---

brush.onMouseDown = function(){

    _root.pushed = true;

}

brush.onMouseUp = function(){

    _root.pushed = false;

}

brush.onEnterFrame = function(){

    if(_root.pushed == true){

        //do stuff

    }else{

        //do other stuff

    }

}

---

Of course you will need to insert your code.

Hmm, but could you use the Mouse.AddListener method at all?

Yes
