Thanks Campbell. That code is though what I try to avoid, since it isn't 100% accurate. A quick move with the mouse and the code won't really detect that the cursor has left the flash area.
The javascript-suggestion is nice of course, I have thought about that, but since it is a CMS and so on, it might not be an easy way to deal with that kind of implementation. Thanks anyway. To bad that their isn't a Stage.isMouseOver/out property. I thought macromedia would have made a solution to this somehow, since this has been a 'problem' since flash5. / martin -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Campbell Anderson Sent: den 23 november 2005 11:14 To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] detecting when mouse goes outside of the flash P.S. to make it more reliable (but I realise you not happy with using browser code...would be to surrond the flash movie with a div and have a javascript listen for a on mouseover and call an fscommand or externalinterface call (depending on the version of flash). c. > > Hi coders. > > This has been up before, and I have done some own tests and searched the > archives as well. > > But I can't find the solution, if there is any. > > I want a certain thing to happen in my flash when the mouse moves > outside flash.
