I've read though the documentation regarding event bubbling several
times, but the concept remains blurry. Perhaps this example will help
me get my head around it.
I want to display a custom cursor, a version of the Photoshop "flat
hand" cursor, whenever the mouse is over a cropped image to indicate
that it can be moved around within the frame. So, I have for the sprite
of the image, MOUSE_OVER turns on and MOUSE_OUT turns off the custom
cursor. The custom cursor object simply hides or displays the Mouse and
has a sprite on the top level of the stage with startDrag() and stopDrag().
The problem is that as soon as the custom cursor's sprite becomes
visible, it causes a MOUSE_OUT event to get called on the image (because
the image is intercepting the mouse-over?) and then the custom cursor
gets turned off again. The result is a flashing cursor. Nice effect,
but not what I have in mind.
Thanks in advance for any guidance!
