Rectangle has contains(x:Number, y:Number):Boolean
All you need to do is create an array of Rectangles and iterate
through them until one matches.
Here is an example of where I do this kind of thing:
private function whereMouse(x:int, y:int):void {
this._hoveredItemIndex = 0;
this._hoveredItemLimit = 0;
for(var
index:int=0;index<this._pathPartsRects.length;index++) {
var rect:Rectangle = this._pathPartsRects[index] as
Rectangle;
if(rect.contains(x, y)) {
// Do your linking here.
return;
}
}
}
_pathPartsRects is an Array of rectangles that represent the image map
data.
