Need an Mc to always stay on screen
I have a very tall Flash application that I will be using as part of a Help Desk application .
The document is 1500 pixels tall. There is a little "control panel" on the right hand side of the screen that always needs to stay on screen , no matter how far down you scroll. The scroll panel is 510 pixels tall, and the registration point is toward the top/middle.
I have the code set so that now, if the mouse gets too far away from the panel, the control panel will travel down (or up) to find the mouse y position. But its a little choppy and sometimes you have to move the mouse to the extreme top or bottom of the screen to get it to position itself properly.
code:
_root.multiplier=60;
_root.pccount=103;
_root.dragmode=false;
function movepane(){
panely=_root.controlpanel._y
mousey=_root._ymouse;
if (mousey>panely+400){
_root.controlpanel._y=_root.controlpanel._y+multip lier;
multiplier= multiplier*0.99;
}else if (mousey<panely-100){
_root.controlpanel._y=_root.controlpanel._y-multiplier;
multiplier= multiplier*0.99;
}else{
multiplier=60;
}//end if mousey
}
