addListener (Mouse.addListener method)
onMouseMove (Mouse.onMouseMove event
listener)
onMouseMove = function() {}
Notified when the mouse moves. To use the onMouseMove listener, you must create a listener
object. You can then define a function for onMouseMove and use addListener() to register
the listener with the Mouse object, as shown in the following code:
var someListener:Object = new Object();
someListener.onMouseMove = function () { ... };
Mouse.addListener(someListener);
Listeners enable different pieces of code to cooperate because multiple listeners can receive
notification about a single event.
Note: This event listener is supported in Flash Lite only if System.capabilities.hasMouse
is true.
Example
The following example uses the mouse pointer as a tool to draw lines using onMouseMove and
the Drawing API. The user draws a line by moving the pointer.
this.createEmptyMovieClip("canvas_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth());
var mouseListener:Object = new Object();
mouseListener.onMouseDown = function() {
this.isDrawing = true;
canvas_mc.lineStyle(2, 0xFF0000, 100);
canvas_mc.moveTo(_xmouse, _ymouse);
};
mouseListener.onMouseMove = function() {
if (this.isDrawing) {
canvas_mc.lineTo(_xmouse, _ymouse);
}
updateAfterEvent();
};
mouseListener.onMouseUp = function() {
this.isDrawing = false;
};
Mouse.addListener(mouseListener);
The following example sets the x and y positions of the pointer_mc movie clip instance to
the x and y pointer positions. The device must support a stylus or mouse for this example to
work. To use the example, you create a movie clip and set its Linkage identifier to
pointer_id. Then add the following ActionScript code to Frame 1 of the Timeline:
