I’ve seen several tutorials that involve twenty lines of ActionScripting for one little popup window, but I thought I’d simplify it a bit so that all it takes is a basic to intermediate knowledge of Flash and only a few lines of scripting. We’ll be creating a fixed tooltip--one that opens in the same position rather than following the mouse--that appears when the mouse moves over the appropriate text, and disappears when the mouse rolls out.
For this tutorial, I’m going to be creating a tooltip that contains information on the highlighted Lorem Ipsum text.
