Title: Mouse Over
Post by: Wiggles_Say on Wed 22/03/2006 10:48:35
Is it possible to get whether the mouse is just over an object and not "moving" over an object? I want it to say what the object is when you're over it but the message disappears when the mouse is no longer moving. Also, is it possible to have mouse over characters? That would be very useful too.

How are you displaying the message? @OVERHOTSPOT@ should stay on display as long as the mouse is over something, moving or not. It works for hotspots, objects and characters, which should answer your second question. (So would a forum search.)
Is it possible that when the mouse stops moving, it's over a transparent bit of the object?

If you're scripting it somehow, we'd need to see it to be any help.

Hey nevermind, I found the GetLocationName does exactly what I want anyway.  ;D
