I need a tiny bit of help doing this piece in a Flash movie I'm creating for someone. I have two bitmaps. One of these is just a normal old picture on the stage. The other is the same picture inverted. What I want to do is have a crosshair on the stage that when moved around 'unveils' the inverted picture. I have run into a few problems. Well really the only problem I have is this
1) I make the custom mouse a mask that unveils the picture.
Problem: I cannot get the crosshair to follow the mask...it stays put in the same place.
2) I make the crosshair the custom mouse.
Problem: I can't figure out a way to unveil the picture.
I have tried putting the same actionscript I use for my custom mouses on both movie clips, but then it doesn't work at all.
While this all may sound very confusing I am going to attach the file so that you may take a look at it. This might help you all understand to help me .
BTW the actionscript I am using on the custom mice is:
code:
onClipEvent (load) {
Mouse.hide();
startDrag(this, true);
}
Thanks, Vendian.
