We all know how to drag a movie clip:
my_mc.startDrag(target,[lock, left, top, right, bottom])
But does anyone know how to drag/restrict a movie clip to a 45 degree angle?

So I've been staring at my screen all day, my client getting increasingly irate trying to work out what's going on.
I'm on Flash CS3, AS 2.0
Here's my code:
Actionscript Code:
//set stage for FBFStage.align = "TL";Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";loadMovie("image.jpg", pic, 'GET');//define dynamic aspect ratiospicHeight = new Object ();picHeight = pic._height / pic._width;picWidth =
[Code].....
My problem is my client wants to be able to change image.jpg occasionally, to ones of different size ratios. If the "pic" movieclip has a box of the right size ratio inside it I have no problem unless I change the image, which I need to be able to do. If there is nothing inside the movieclip when I load it, the image always appears on its side, and I can't seem to get it rotate to the correct position!
I have the following code which detects the mouse angle, relative to a holder movie clip, and then makes the rotation of a "turret" movie clip follow the mouse. How can I adapt it for use with another movie clip in place of the mouse?
[Code]...
Wat's the difference between to find angles of two points which is (x1,x2) and the other point be (_xmouse,_ymouse).
To find the angles we subtract from one point to the other
like
method 1:
target x = (_xmouse - mc._x)
target y= (_ymouse - mc._y)

Im trying to do a drag and drop system where the user can drag a movie clip into an area. Although i would like to make it snap to a target instead of just sitting wherever it lands in the area. Problem Two:
The next thing i am trying to do is when the user has a movie clip on a target already, and trys to put another movie clip in that target area, it will replace the one thats in there and go back to its current position. Here is the script of what i have done so far:
[Code]...
I have some movie clips. i want to drag all clips when i drag single movie clip. Ex. I have movie clips "A1", "A2", "A3", "A4", "A5" . Randomly visible some of them. Suppose "A1", "A3", "A4" has visible. When i will drag "A1" movie clip all these "A3", "A4" also move with "A1".

View 2 RepliesDoes anyone know the code for finding the global positioning of X & Y co-ordinates of a click of a button which is constantly rotating, and then secondly the code for when you click on the button it displays a movie clip on top of it -(position of x & y when clicked) at the angle that you clicked it,so underneath the buttons are still rotating so other people can click them where they are?
to explain the context, I'm trying to design a mock up of a circular interactive table Dynamically placing movie clip at the angle and global position of a mouse click (button) which is constantly rotating.when someone comes up to it and clicks on one of the buttons that are moving, it reads where the person clicked it and opens up a new box (movie clip) where they clicked it (at the angle) so its not upside down if you are at the top.
I've included my .fla file which shows the four buttons moving and a little diagram explaining what I'm trying to do.

When it does drop on the target it needs to play a different keyframe from the root which holds a movie clip. Below is the code I have in my button within the draggable movie:

it starts dragging, but for some reason the drop target isn't working or the stopDrag, because it won't stop dragging.
i have been trying to get this to work forever. What im doing here is making a flash site thats like a real time strategy game. You have to build stuff in order to unlock new sections of the site. check out this: [URL] click on build, then drag the Main button and release somewhere above. Notice that when you release it sticks to the cursor and doesnt stop dragging. Now, hit cancel and notice that the main clip is still loaded and works correctly if you drag and drop it.
