If I were looking for the super-ideal "correct" algorithm and hade infinite
coding monkeys, I would at init time create bitmaps of every library item,
and use flood-fill combined with trig math to generate vector "trace" shapes
of the non-white areas, which I would draw as zero alpha shapes into a

for each visual element?
As I think I indicated, that is indeed an option, but one we're
looking for a way to avoid.

oki just realized you said that would be a pain in your original
message. sorry...i am tired.
how many elements do you have? a hitArea for each one does seem like a
simpler way to goor maybe i'm just tired.

My understanding is that it's the default behaviour of a clip with
any mouse events handled at all, that the cursor changes when it
enters the clip.
Oh right, sorry. So I wonder if it is possible to override this by
definining an onMouseOver and changing the cursor to the default one?

Can't you override the onMouseOver of the clips to prevent the cursor
change?
Or wait, why would the cursor be changing?
There's no onRollover event being specifically handled, but each of
the clips has onPress, onRelease and onReleaseOutside events handled.

Sure, I can use that to decide whether or not the user has clicked on
a non-white area, but that doesn't resolve user confusion. It doesn't
help the user to know which item th
Also, just looking this up made me notice that as of Flash 8, you can do
pixel-level hit detection between not only a bitmap and a point, but 2
bitmaps, with alpha threshold support!

Check out the BitmapData class, specifically the static loadBitmap(id)
method for creating an instance from a library symbol, and getPixel() which
allows checking individual pixel values.
I would think an algorithm that would work would be to iterate through the
display list, do hitTest() on ever
