Here's a simple behavior I wrote. It requires you to hand-place the
sprite[s] and make them invisible.
It's set up to use a graphic tooltip or a text sprite with a shape
sprite for a black outline. Enjoy.
property pLabelSprite
property pOutlineSprite
property pVisible
global theMenu
on beginSprite me
-- save the sprite's visibile state and hide it
pVisible = sprite(pLabelSprite).visible
sprite(pLabelSprite).visible = FALSE
if pOutlineSprite > 0 then
sprite(pOutlineSprite).visible = FALSE
end if
end
on endSprite
-- reset the sprite's visibility to its original state
sprite(pLabelSprite).visible = pVisible
if pOutlineSprite > 0 then
sprite(pOutlineSprite).visible = pVisible
end if
end
on mouseDown me
theMenu.clear()
end
on mouseUp me
stopSound
puppetSound 3, member "CLICK2"
cursor -1
hidesprite pLabelSprite
if pOutlineSprite > 0 then
sprite(pOutlineSprite).visible = FALSE
end if
end
on mouseWithin me
-- cursor 280
showsprite pLabelSprite
if pOutlineSprite > 0 then
sprite(pOutlineSprite).visible = TRUE
end if
end
on mouseLeave me
-- cursor -1
hidesprite pLabelSprite
if pOutlineSprite > 0 then
sprite(pOutlineSprite).visible = FALSE
end if
end
on getPropertyDescriptionList me
vPDList = [:]
addProp vPDList,#pLabelSprite, [#default:10, #format:#integer, \
#comment:"Label sprite:"]
addProp vPDList,#pOutlineSprite, [#default:0, #format:#integer, \
#comment:"Outline sprite:"]
return vPDList
End
Cordially,
