 Custom Cursor
« Thread Started on Jun 18, 2006, 10:42am »

This is how you make a custom cursor on Flash:

Step 1: Draw your cursor.

Step 2: Convert you cursor into a movieclip. (Select the entire custom cursor you made, right click it, click convert to symbol, select movieclip, and click ok.) Give the movieclip the instance name "CURSOR". (Don't put in the quotes.)

Step 3: Double click the movie clip, the put the part of the cursor where you want it to be clickable, and put it on the crosshair. This allows better clickablity. (Step 3 is optional if you are making a regular cursor and not a crosshair.)

Step 4: Exit the movieclip and select the movieclip.

Step 5: Open the actions window, with the movieclip selected, and paste this code in:
Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
    startDrag("_root.CURSOR", true);
    Mouse.hide();
}


Step 6: Test movie. If done correctly, you should have the custom cursor instead of the default cursor.
