Creating a Custom Cursor

[ahsan16]

# Create a Movieclip for the custom cursor, say a small circle and name the instance say, 'cust_cursor'. The instance name of a symbol is used to control it using Actionscript commands (Refer Advanced Masking for this example).
# Select the Movieclip instance 'cust_cursor' on the stage and reduce the Alpha value to 40 and write the following Actionscript code for it as given below:

onClipEvent(load)
{
Mouse.hide();
this.startDrag();
}

# The 'hide' method of the predefined object 'Mouse' is used to hide the standard cursor. The keyword 'this' is used to reference the Movieclip instance 'cust_cursor'.
# We use the 'startDrag' action of the Movieclip to use the movieclip as a custom cursor.
# The Custom Cursor Movieclip can also be Animated and used as a Mask as shown in the example below.
# Save your work and test the Movie (Ctrl + Enter). That's it you have learnt how to create a movieclip as a custom cursor in Flash.
