on mouseWithin

Syntax


on mouseWithin
statement(s)
endDescription


System message and event handler; contains statements that run when the
mouse is within the active area of the sprite. The mouse button does not
have to be pressed.

If the sprite is a bitmap cast member with the matte ink applied, the active
area is the portion of the image that is displayed; otherwise, the sprite's
bounding rectangle is the active area.

If used in a behavior, this event is passed the sprite script or frame
script reference me.

Example


This statement displays the mouse location when the mouse pointer is over a
sprite:

on mouseWithin
member("Display").text = string(the mouseH)
end mouseWithinSee also


on mouseEnter, on mouseLeave

Actually, the below is what you want I think...

-Dan
sprite...within

Syntax


sprite(sprite1).within(sprite2)
sprite sprite1 within sprite2Description


Keyword; operator that compares the position of two sprites and determines
whether the quad of sprite1 is entirely inside the quad of sprite2 (TRUE) or
not (FALSE).

If both sprites have matte ink, their actual outlines, not the quads, are
used. A sprite's outline is defined by the nonwhite pixels that make up its
border.

This is a comparison operator with a precedence level of 5.

Note: The dot operator is required whenever sprite1 is not a simple
expression--that is, one that contains a math operation.

Example


This statement checks whether two sprites intersect and calls the handler
doInside if they do:

if sprite(3).within(2) then doInsideSee also


sprite...intersects, quad
