» Title: Creative DW Image Show PRO
» Description: Creative DW Image Show PRO is a Dreamweaver extension which enables the user to create multimedia presentations. It combines the features of the popular Creative DW Image Show with the ability to add professional text effects to slides (similar to After Effects). The product is very customizable: the user can choose the duration of the transition effects, the slide motion start and end position, zoom and panning type for both images and texts.
The main parts of the code are the duplication of the original MovieClip and the condition for duplication.
Recall, earlier we had set a function to be performed at a fixed interval. That function set the values for two variables mouseX and mouseY at fixed intervals.
The onClipEvent(enterFrame) event handler checks, at the speed of the Movie's frame rate, whether the current position of the cursor is the same as the values in the mouseX or mouseY variables.
Since the onClipEvent(enterFrame) event works at an interval smaller than that of setInterval(), differences in values are bound to arise when the cursor moves.
The diffX variable calculates the difference between the current X position of the cursor and the X position of the cursor stored in the variable mouseX.
The diffY variable calculates the difference between the current Y position of the cursor and the previous Y position of the cursor stored in the variable mouseY.
If either diffX or diffY contains a value other than 0 (indicating a difference), it is clear that the cursor has moved.
