action script question

[SmittyMcGee]

I know a bit of action script. But im not sure how to make something.

I need to know what the script would be for grabbing and rotating something. Like a wheel. But it has to stay in the same place.

If anyone knows please tell me. Thanks.

Put this code on the wheel:

onClipEvent(enterFrame){
_rotation+=5;
}

No, that would make it rotate as soon as it enters the frame. I need to know the script for making it rotatewhen i grab it and rotate it.

Like:

onClipEvent(mouseDown){

yada yada yada.

NOOB... LIAR... I BET U DONT NO **** ABOUT ACTIONSCRIPT... GO **** YOURSELF!!! anywho... here you go:

onClipEvent (mouseDown) {
if (this.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, false)) {
if (_root._xmouse += 1) {
_rotation += 1;
}
}
if (this.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, false)) {
if (_root._xmouse -= 1) {
_rotation -= 1;
}
}
if (this.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, false)) {
if (_root._ymouse += 1) {
_rotation += 1;
}
}
if (this.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, false)) {
if (_root._ymouse -= 1) {
_rotation -= 1;
}
}
}

now a quote from Greenday:

(You) are so full of ****
Born and raised by hypocrits
Heart recycled but never saved,
From the cradle to the grave,

I know enough to understand it. But I'm no good at writing them, because i always put stuff in the wrong orders and stuff like that.

Come one, does anyone know what to do?

Why, do you consider yourself the only person who knows what to do? Just because you can't do it, doesnt mean I'm on my own : )

Now, does anyone have any idea of what to do?

I will give you a big hug <3

This what you're looking for?

onClipEvent (load) {
var down:Boolean = false;
}
onClipEvent (mouseDown) {
down = true;
}
onClipEvent (mouseUp) {
down = false;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (down == true && hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, true)) {
_rotation = 90+Math.atan2(_y-_root._ymouse, _x-_root._xmouse)*180/Math.PI;
}
}

Didn't require loads of thinking..
