Follow Mouse Properties

Follow Mouse properties are managed through the Properties panel. You can view and modify them.

This page discusses:

General

Active
Defines whether or not a behavior is active during a playing session.
Notes:
  • An inactive behavior or script is not executed during a playing session.
  • The behavior's activity depends on the actor's activity. If its associated actors are inactive, the behavior is also inactive.

Activation

Activate on
Defines the default trigger for a behavior.

Two options are available:

  • No activation: deactivates the default trigger.
  • Experience Start: triggers the behavior when the experience starts.
Mode
Defines the pointer action that triggers the movement.

Two options are available:

  • Mouse Move: Moves the 3D actor when the pointer moves.
  • Mouse Click: Moves the 3D actor when you click.

Parameters

Project only on 3D
  • Option selected: projects the 3D actor only if there is a 3D surface under your pointer. Nothing happens if there is no 3D surface under the pointer.
  • Option cleared: if there is no 3D surface, the 3D actor remains in the horizontal plane.
Align Surface to Normal
Aligns a 3D actor with the surface normal located under the point.
