Help with Mouse Within and Mouse Leave problem...

[Khanh75 webforumsuser@macromedia.com]

I have a shockwave 3d file of a building with individual floors split up into seperate objects.

I want a pop-up information box (set at a MARKER) to appear when the user mouse overs a specific floor. For this I am using the MOUSE WITHIN(a floor) to trigger a CLICK MODEL GO TO MARKER action to go to the marker with the pop-up box. This works fine.

I want the pop-up information box to go away when the user's mouse Leaves that floor. For this I tried using MOUSE LEAVE (that floor) to trigger a CLICK MODEL GO TO MARKER to go to the marker w/o the pop-up box. But this doesn't work. If I move my mouse over the model really fast, it will go to that marker once in awhile.

Which leads me to believe...
MOUSE WITHIN works at the individual 3d object level
MOUSE LEAVE works at the entire shockwave 3d sprite level
Are these safe assumptions?

I have included a link to an example of what I am trying to do, real simple mousewithin/mouseleave actions. Any ideas or suggestions of how to resolve this problem or possibly another way of doing this? Please help.

try: modelunderloc not modelsunderloc

you will find a little script where you have only to change the number of
the sprite where your 3dmember is in.
if you now klick into your scene you get the name of the model that is under
your mouse.

then you can go on with

if m = member("3D").model("gb5") then
alert "everything ok?"
end if


instead of alert "everything ok?" you can let the movie do what ever you
want. in your case open a window or close a window or both....

lutz!
