i have a basic game that shoots target how can use the motion listner so that paint objects (the aim) move with the mouse.
i am able to shoot targets but it jus clicks to them ive been using this:
public void mouse() {
dotX = mouseX;
dotY = mouseY;
int d = Math.abs(dotX - (targetX + 60/2)) + Math.abs(dotY - (targetY + 60/2));
if(d < 15) {
score++;
s1 = "" + score;
else {
score--;
s1 = "" + score;
and here's my cross hairs used for aiming
//lines
page.setStroke(new BasicStroke(1));
page.setColor(Color.green);
page.drawLine(dotX-10,dotY,dotX+10,dotY);
page.drawLine(dotX,dotY-10,dotX,dotY+10);
//cricle
page.setColor(new Color(0,168,0,100));

Need help adding schedule to xcode 4

I need help adding a tour schedule for an iphone app building an app for 13 djs and they want thier tour schedules added these need to be updated monthly is there a way to add this????

I don't know if this is the easiest way but it works for me. I connect the DVD player to my camcorder (so it's the 3 plugs yellow/red/white on one end and a single jack into the camera). Then I connect my camcorder to the computer (I think it's through a firewire port). Then I just play the DVD and the footage is digitized via the camcorder and I import it into iMovie 4 as it's playing. I believe the camcorder is just in VCR mode.
I have also used this method to transfer VHS tapes onto DVDs via the camera by connecting the VCR to the camera.
I haven't had much luck with movies over about 40 minutes on iMovie. But if it's home movies, there may be a logical break. Do maybe 20 minute segments (it's also really easy on iMovie to add a soundtrack if these are OLD films with no sound.
As you can see, I'm low tech!
Good luck!

[SOLVED]Unable to install grub "couldn't find /mnt/boot/grub/menu.lst"

Ok so I was trying to install windows after I had arch installed, used an ubuntu cd to use gparted to create a partition, tried to go to the windows installation but it would endlessly send me back to restart the installation even after succesfully writting all files...
So now I decided to not install it, went back into ubuntu/gparted, deleted the partition and rejoined the space with my main arch partition and then selected the "boot" flag to boot...
Cannot boot, grub its still on /boot/ but the MBR its obviously tempered with by windows ( which coincidentally couldn't even find itself after writing mbr to its liking....*sigh* ).
So I try to use my arch install cd to reinstall grub but i get this:
"couldn't find /mnt/boot/grub/menu.lst is grub installed?"
I tried to use the select packages thing to make sure the cd is mounted and mounts fine but it keeps getting me that error message. I managed to boot to my system just fine with arch root=/dev/sda1 but obviosly the kernell does not has my nvidia module which means I can't get into x which means i am using links and since my grub is not loaded i can't even get framebuffer so this is rather inconvenient.
Im sure im missing a very simple and stupid thing but im so annoyed my brain must be saying "ok im done somebody else figure it out". I still have a backup copy of my grub menu.lst I made before. Do I just delete /bood/grub/ and try again? Am I missing something on the install procedure to be able to rewrite grub? Can I just do it from the command line or with pacman? Any help appreciate it thanks.

If you can get into your arch and cli then you should just be able to reinstall grub with
install-grub /dev/sda
or reinstall grub with
pacman -S grub
if the package is messed up or missing.

What command to start kernel 3.0 in /boot/grub/menu.lst? [solved]

Currently I have:

is there a script or something else, that generates a "good" grub menu.lst ?
thx

Need help with installing Yahoo style flash menu CS5

I downloaded the Yahoo style menu bar from the the available widgets. I got the menu bar to show in Dreamweaver, but need help:
I have trouble understanding how to use the f-source flash editor to edit the links.
I don't seem to be able to drop the f-source.com button from the menu bar.
The bar shows up as a tiny bar in IE8, not as I had programmed it in the widget programmer.
I was instructed to Insert ==> f-source menus ==> Edit menu in Dreamweaver. Doing this leads to the following message: "Install at least one f-source menu'. I did install the f-source-UI G file in the Adobe Extension Manager CS5. What else needs to be installed?
My OS is Windows7 and I am working with Dreamweaver CS5. Please help.
Thanks,
Tony Uythoven

Flash menus (Flash navigation, period) is a terrible thing from a functional standpoint. It looks really nice, but the honeymoon ends there. As far as SEO goes, your entire site, beyond the landing page, is invisible. A search robot will only see an embeded Flash object.
You have to ask yourself a basic question.
1. What is the purpose of building a website and putting it online?
If it's for your own personal enjoyment and nothing more, then a Flash menu may be for you. If it's for a business or band, or a political group or social group, and you want people to be able to find it in Google, Yahoo, Bing, etc. then you want as many indexible links as possible on your landing page so they will show up in related searches like schedules, articles, galleries, etc.

ComboBox (dropdown) Need Help Adding URL links!!!

I am somewhat of a newbie....Anybody know how to use URL
links in a ComboBox dropdown menu? NEED HELP!!!!!!! I'm trying to
make it so that after selecting an option, the user is directed to
another URL within the same browser window. Using flash 8!
Thanks,

Im a bit a newbie myslef but i think you make flash
commuincate to javascript wich will make the browser goto the URL.
do a search on getURL and javascript together and i am sure
you will find something.
And when slecting to redirct i think its on?(onPress)
something so maybe look throught the help section in flash 8 and
look at componets. I think there is some actionscript help there.
Sorry i could not be more helpful.

I have a godaddy website with a welcome page- I need help adding a few additional pages with a hyperlink to my welcome page.

I need help attaching a few hyperlinks my godaddy welcome page. I have 2 more ipages articles, I also converted them to pdf. Godaddy only helped (last year) with the 1st article. I do not know how to attach a hyperlink to the artlcles and add the hyperlinks to my welcome page.

The program is called Pages not iPages. Just let us know if you do not speak English and what language you do speak so we can adjust for that.
The issues are to do with your web page not with Pages.
I think you are asking how to link from your web page to your pdf articles. You must first copy those pdfs to your web server, or some other web location, and then provide html links on your welcome page to those pdf files.
The pdfs themselves may contain links to other locations but I can not see that that is what you are asking for.
Nor to what those links would be to.
From your heading I think you may have confused the name of Pages, the word processing program, with web pages which are two different things.

Need help adding links to carousel menu

Here is the code I have now:
var numOfItems:Number = 4;
var radiusX:Number = 150;
var radiusY:Number = 55;
var centerX:Number = Stage.width/2;
var centerY:Number = Stage.height/2 + 30;
var speed:Number = 0.05;
for(var i=1;i<numOfItems+1;i++) {
        var t = this.attachMovie("item"+i,"item"+i,i+1);
        t.angle = i * ((Math.PI*2)/numOfItems);
        t.onEnterFrame = mover;
function mover() {
        this._x = Math.cos(this.angle) * radiusX + centerX;
        this._y = Math.sin(this.angle) * radiusY + centerY;
        var s:Number = this._y / (centerY + radiusY);
        this._xscale = this._yscale = s * 110;
        this.angle += this._parent.speed;
        this.swapDepths(Math.round(this._xscale) + 100);
this.onMouseMove = function() {
        speed = (this._xmouse - centerX) / 3700;
this code adds an item to the carousel menu. what im looking for is to create those items linkable to a different page. I think i should do it in the first part:
for(var i=1;i<numOfItems+1;i++) {
         var t = this.attachMovie("item"+i,"item"+i,i+1);
         t.angle = i * ((Math.PI*2)/numOfItems);
         t.onEnterFrame = mover;
but im not to sure. Also it doesn't matter what the url is so if I have to create inside that loop to make the urls go like this: page1.html page2.html page3.html page4.html beacuse it increments in the loop and add those links to each item on the fly. I can create the html pages to match the links later on so it doesn't matter at all what the urls turn out to be as long as they are all different. can I just use an onClick even on the tm like t.onClick = "page" + x + ".html"..... where x increments each time?
does anyone have any suggestions on where to start? this code above was made from a tutorial and im new to flash so its a little hard for me to know where to start at.

Here is the code I have now:
var numOfItems:Number = 4;
var radiusX:Number = 150;
var radiusY:Number = 55;
var centerX:Number = Stage.width/2;
var centerY:Number = Stage.height/2 + 30;
var speed:Number = 0.05;
for(var i=1;i<numOfItems+1;i++) {
        var t = this.attachMovie("item"+i,"item"+i,i+1);
        t.angle = i * ((Math.PI*2)/numOfItems);
        t.onEnterFrame = mover;
function mover() {
        this._x = Math.cos(this.angle) * radiusX + centerX;
        this._y = Math.sin(this.angle) * radiusY + centerY;
        var s:Number = this._y / (centerY + radiusY);
        this._xscale = this._yscale = s * 110;
        this.angle += this._parent.speed;
        this.swapDepths(Math.round(this._xscale) + 100);
this.onMouseMove = function() {
        speed = (this._xmouse - centerX) / 3700;
this code adds an item to the carousel menu. what im looking for is to create those items linkable to a different page. I think i should do it in the first part:
for(var i=1;i<numOfItems+1;i++) {
         var t = this.attachMovie("item"+i,"item"+i,i+1);
         t.angle = i * ((Math.PI*2)/numOfItems);
         t.onEnterFrame = mover;
but im not to sure.

Need Help To Create a Subpicture For Menu Buttons

I've looked online, and Adobe and other sources say to create a custom subpicture (as in an animation to highlight my buttons not provided by default) and they all say the same thing: Open the menu in Photoshop, select the button folder and create the new layer in each named (=1) and making a shape.
The only problem is, Photoshop doesn't allow me to open layers up as it wants me to simplify them, as it claims they are "not compatible". I'm still a bit of a newbie with Photoshop, but I am pretty sure I've done everything as instructed and I am genuinely at a loss as to what to do now...
Any help would be appreciated! Why oh why can't Encore be more intuitive...

I am not sure what you are doing. Opening a layer should not be a problem.
So let's get on the same page...
Open Encore, create a new test project for a DVD, add a menu. Doesn't matter which one.
Right click on the menu you added, and pick "edit menu in photoshop." You can "open the menu" in photoshop (outside Encore), but it will be simpler in the long run to edit from Encore.
You will see the button groups with a + symbol in front. And a triangle (showing a closed button group) to the left. Click that triangle, and you should see the layers in the group. Does that work?
Now try what you were doing before, but in this menu. Does it work or ...?

Need help adding video to a site

Hi Everyone:
I really need some help please. The owner of a site I am
working on sent me a DVD with video's he has taken and wants them
put on his site.
The files are VIDEO_TS and are MPEG files. How can I add the
video's to the site so that when I user clicks on the link, they
are able to either view the site or download the video to watch
later. I have other video's added to the site but I was able to
copy them and safe them the way there were added. The owner sells
products from the site I copied them from.
The site I am working on is www.buggyworld.net. Most of the
individual pages for the vehilces have videos on them and I am
trying to add these new ones the same way. I have never done this
before so really not sure how to. The videos that are already added
at Windows Media Audio/Video Files and that is how I would like to
convert this video to.
Any help would be so greatly appreciated.. thank you
Linda

Best bet would be to make Flash video so that everyone who
wants to (and has
the Flash Player plugin) can see them. Do you have Flash?

Need help adding AM/PM to my clock program

Hi everyone
I would be grateful if you could help me adding AM/PM to my clockDisplay program, been trying but i'm not very familiar with Java.
Thanks
I have used 2 classes:
NumberDisplay and ClockDisplay
the clock automatically convert hours after 12 noon such as 14:34 to 02:34 so all i need is to add PM and AM accordingly.
NumberDisplay classs:
public class NumberDisplay
    private int limit;
    private int value;
    public NumberDisplay(int rollOverLimit)
        limit = rollOverLimit;
        value = 0;
    public int getValue()
        return value;
    public String getDisplayValue()
        if(value < 10)
            return "0" + value;
        else
            return "" + value;
    public void setValue(int replacementValue)
        if((replacementValue >= 0) && (replacementValue < limit))
            value = replacementValue;
        else if ( (replacementValue>=limit) && (replacementValue>=0) )
           value=replacementValue-12;
    public void increment()
        value = (value + 1) % limit;
}ClockDisplay class:
public class ClockDisplay
    private NumberDisplay hours;
    private NumberDisplay minutes;
    private String displayString;    // simulates the actual display
    public ClockDisplay()
        hours = new NumberDisplay(12);
        minutes = new NumberDisplay(60);
        updateDisplay();
    public ClockDisplay(int hour, int minute)
        hours = new NumberDisplay(12);
        minutes = new NumberDisplay(60);
        setTime(hour, minute);
    public void timeTick()
        minutes.increment();
        if(minutes.getValue() == 0) {
            hours.increment();
        updateDisplay();
    public void setTime(int hour, int minute)
        hours.setValue(hour);
        minutes.setValue(minute);
         updateDisplay();
    public String getTime()
        return displayString;
    private void updateDisplay()
        displayString = hours.getDisplayValue() + ":" +
                        minutes.getDisplayValue();
}As you see value=replacementValue-12; do the job.
i tried do this:
if(hours.setValue(hour)>=12)
updateDisplayPm();
else
updateDisplay();
and for
private void updateDisplayPm()
displayString = hours.getDisplayValue() + ":" +
                        minutes.getDisplayValue() + "PM";but it didnt work.
so should iwrite if statemnt in NumberDisplay class and refer it to ClockDisplay or i can do something in clockDisplay.
Looking forward to hear from you
thanks

solved
public class NumberDisplay
    private int limit;
    private int value;
    private boolean isam;
    public NumberDisplay(int rollOverLimit)
        limit = rollOverLimit;

    public int getValue()
        return value;
      public boolean getAm()
             return isam;
    public String getDisplayValue()
        if(value < 10)
            return "0" + value;
        else
            return "" + value;
    public void setValue(int replacementValue)
        if((replacementValue >= 0) && (replacementValue < limit))
            value = replacementValue;
            isam=true;
        else if ( (replacementValue>=limit) && (replacementValue>=0) )
           value=replacementValue-12;
           isam=false;
    public void increment()
        value = (value + 1) % limit;
public class ClockDisplay
    private NumberDisplay hours;
    private NumberDisplay minutes;
    private String displayString;    // simulates the actual display
    private NumberDisplay amCheck;
    public ClockDisplay()
        hours = new NumberDisplay(12);
        minutes = new NumberDisplay(60);
        updateDisplay();
    public ClockDisplay(int hour, int minute)
        hours = new NumberDisplay(12);
        minutes = new NumberDisplay(60);
        setTime(hour, minute);
    public void timeTick()
        minutes.increment();
        if(minutes.getValue() == 0) {
            hours.increment();
        updateDisplay();
