Open MovieClip over mouse position

[Igor_Sulim]

Hello, guys! The task. I have movieclip panel_PA_anim, which has eventListener. I would like to open another MC and put it over mouse. How should I adjust my code to fix it?

this.panel_PA_anim.addEventListener("click", (e) => {

let l = this.globalToLocal(stage.mouseX, stage.mouseY);

Object(this.parent).incorrect.x = l.x;
Object(this.parent).incorrect.y = l.y;

Object(this.parent).incorrect.visible = true;
let a = () => {
Object(this.parent).incorrect.visible = false
}
setTimeout((a), 700);

});

Thank you in advance!

if that code actually compiles, you need to explain what you're doing.  if that code was copied from somewhere unrelated to animate, and incorrect and panel_PA_anim are both children of the same movieclip that contains your code, use:

this.panel_PA_anim.addEventListener("click", f.bind(this));

var to;

function f(){

var l = this.globalToLocal(stage.mouseX, stage.mouseY);

this.incorrect.x = l.x;
this.incorrect.y = l.y;

this.incorrect.visible = true;
clearTimeout(to);
to=setTimeout(a, 700, this);

};

function a(tl){

tl.incorrect.visible = false

}

Hi, mate!

I've found that this code works, but clips should be at the same stage (in the same coordinate system).

this.incorrect_PA.visible = false;

this.panel_PA_anim.addEventListener("click", (e) => {
	
	let l = this.globalToLocal(stage.mouseX, stage.mouseY);
	
	this.incorrect_PA.x = l.x;
	this.incorrect_PA.y = l.y
	
	this.incorrect_PA.visible = true;
	let a = () => {
		this.incorrect_PA.visible = false
	}
	setTimeout((a), 700);
	
});
