if you want something to happen over and over do a set interval on
mouse down and clear interval on mouse up.

hi All,
What is the syntax for a continuous loop in AS3?
Have working code for a code loop using mouse down - one frame-main
timeline, but can't figure out how to maintain the rate of movement when the
mouse is stationary with the mouse button still in down position.
thanks,

Place symbol instance named 'circle' on stage.
Paste this code on actions frame:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
this.stop();
var circleOrigX:Number;
var circleOrigY:Number;
var curOrigX:Number;
var curOrigY:Number;
var panRateX:Number;
var panRateY:Number;
function panSetUpDrag(event:MouseEvent):void {
circleOrigX = event.stageX - circle.x;
circleOrigY = event.stageY - circle.y;
curOrigX= event.stageX ;
curOrigY= event.stageY ;
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, panloop);
}
function panloop(event:MouseEvent):void {
/*want this loop to operate while mouse is stationary
- causing pan actions to reposition circle
at rate based on distance of cursor from start*/
panRateX = (event.stageX -curOrigX) * 3 ;
panRateY = (event.stageY -curOrigY) * 3 ;
circle.x = event.stageX - circleOrigX - panRateX;
circle.y = event.stageY - circleOrigY - panRateY;
event.updateAfterEvent();
}
function PanStopDrag(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndStop(1);
stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, panloop);
}
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, panSetUpDrag);
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, PanStopDrag);
