Personalize the mouse cursor in your Adobe Flash movies

1. Create a new Flash document, 400x400 size. Name the first layer content.
2. Create a new MovieClip that holds the mouse cursor you want user see on your website.Name it MouseCursorMC. Make an instance of it in the first frame of the content layer and name it mouseCursor_mc.
3. Create a new layer and give it the name actions.
4. In the first frame of the actions layer put this code in:

Mouse.hide();// to hide the actual mouse cursor
startDrag("mouseCursor_mc",true);// start drag the cursor_mc MovieClip across the Flash movie

5. Press CTRL+Enter and test the movie. Nice job! See the result below:

Add another line of code:

onMouseMove = function () { updateAfterEvent()};

And you'll see the same cursor move real smooth!
