I willl discuss the application that i am trying to develop.Its an image rotator. Now onMouseMove listener, i am rotating the image clockwise or anticlockwise. What I want is that onMouseMove event, some times the mouse remains in the same position, that is mouse not moving. In such cases i want to  stop the rotation. Can anybody help me to do this. If anybody do not understand, please tell me, i ll explain more.

Like I said in your other post there is no way to detect if the mouse is not moving with and onMouseMove event.

But if the code in the onMouseMove is making the clip rotate it won't move when no onMouseMove events occur so that should take care of the problem.

If you want to do other things with the clip then generally you would use an onEnterFrame or a setInterval to check the mouse position, not an onMouseMove.
