Hi All
Here is a Very simple Tutorial on HOW TO MAKE A MOVIE CLIP FOLLOW THE MOUSE



1. Create a new empty Flash Document

2. Add a Picture or anything to the Flash Library then drag it out onto the Flash Stage and convert it too a MOVIE CLIP (Select it and Press F8 ) then in the dialog box that pops up Choose Movie Clip and click OK.

3 Click on the Object on the Stage and Press F9 to open the Actionscript window for the Movie Clip and paste this code in.

Code: Select all

onClipEvent (load) {
	_x = 0;
	_y = 0;
	speed = 8;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
	endX = _root._xmouse;
	endY = _root._ymouse;
	_x += (endX-_x)/speed;
	_y += (endY-_y)/speed;
}

Then Press CTRL+eNTER TO RUN it

The code above is really self explanatery

Hello Hungryhounduk,

In my school's website, there were two eyes that followed my mouse. I wondered how it is done. But now you've scared away my wonders. lol. Can this be done in Visual Basic? Please reply!

Thank you.

Hi Usmann55
yes i am sure it can be done in VB, in fact i think there was a post somewhere on here that showed you how to do it, but i might be mistaken
