tracking mouse for screen saver

[Brian@winmediainc.com webforumsuser@macromedia.com]

I am creating a screen saver with director. I have is so that if the user clicks the mouse or presses a key, the movie will halt. These are all included in the movie script. The one thing I am having problems with is to have the movie quit when the mouse has moved. How can I do this without applying a script to a sprite?

here's a movieScript need to init the globals in startmovie, nextCheck
delay and 4 value establish a min distance over times, so 1 pixel nudge
doesn't quit

global lastmouseLoc, nextCheck


on idle
if the ticks > nextCheck then
if abs(the mouseH - lastmouseLoc.locH) > 4 \
or abs(the mouseV - lastmouseLoc.locV) > 4 then quit
lastmouseLoc = the mouseLoc
nextCheck = the ticks + 30 -- 2 times a sec test
end if
