copied!<p>One way to avoid your problem with the infinite loop is to put your animateCursor code inside an ENTER_FRAME event handler.</p> <p>Here's how it can look: <a href="http://www.swfcabin.com/open/1360303185" rel="nofollow">http://www.swfcabin.com/open/1360303185</a></p> <p>( Your custom cursor shape looks awesome ; )</p> <p>Here's your code remade in MiniBuilder ( functions are arranged alphabetically ):</p> <pre><code>package com.glowingcursor { import flash.display.*; import flash.events.*; import flash.geom.*; import flash.ui.*; public class Application extends Sprite { private var cursor:Sprite; private var cursorOffset:Point; private var sense:Boolean; public function Application() { addEventListener( Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, onAdded ); } private function animateCursor( e:Event ):void { if ( cursor.alpha >= 1 ) sense = false; else if ( cursor.alpha <= 0.2 ) sense = true; if( sense ) cursor.alpha += 0.08; else cursor.alpha -= 0.08; } private function hideCursor( e:MouseEvent ):void { Mouse.show(); removeChild( cursor ); removeEventListener( Event.ENTER_FRAME, moveCursor ); removeEventListener( Event.ENTER_FRAME, animateCursor ); } private function initCursor():void { cursor = new Sprite(); cursor.graphics.beginFill( 0xff0000 ); cursor.graphics.drawRect( 0, 0, 6, 2 ); // top left cursor.graphics.drawRect( 0, 23, 6, 2 ); // bottom left cursor.graphics.drawRect( 0, 0, 2, 6 ); // left top cursor.graphics.drawRect( 0, 19, 2, 6 ); // left bottom cursor.graphics.drawRect( 19, 0, 6, 2 ); // top right cursor.graphics.drawRect( 23, 0, 2, 6 ); // right top cursor.graphics.drawRect( 19, 23, 6, 2 ); // bottom right cursor.graphics.drawRect( 23, 19, 2, 6 ); // right bottom cursor.graphics.endFill(); // So InteractiveObjects react to the custom cursor properly cursor.mouseEnabled = false; // For cursor centering cursorOffset = new Point( cursor.width / 2, cursor.height / 2 ); } private function moveCursor( e:Event ):void { cursor.x = mouseX - cursorOffset.x; cursor.y = mouseY - cursorOffset.y; } private function onAdded( e:Event ):void { initCursor(); showCursor(); } private function showCursor():void { Mouse.hide(); addChild( cursor ); addEventListener( Event.ENTER_FRAME, moveCursor ); addEventListener( Event.ENTER_FRAME, animateCursor ); } } } </code></pre>
