Greetings. I've been doing this tutorial. [URL] And worked pretty well. In order to adapt to my needs i made it a movie with a drag and drop parameter to be loaded in another movie (with loadMovie or loadMovieNum). The problem is than the movie loads, drags but doesnt drops. Even i tried with the example movie and nothing happens.
View 1 RepliesI have created a main swf file which holds a movie container which other swf's load into. One of the sections has a form in it. When I preview this section on its own the form works, but when I preview through the main swf file (or online) the text fields cannot be typed into. How can I fix this? Files can be downloaded from;[url]....
View 6 RepliesI bet this is not a new topic but I couldn't find solution for my problem in the net.I'm trying to make a super simple drag n drop. The code is below:
PHP Code:
s_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
s_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
[code].....
This scroller doesn't seem to work once i load it as an SWF, is there any reason why, if so, how can i fix it?
View 5 RepliesI have made a simple site with some simple transitions. each button on my site loads in an external swf file into an empty movie clip.
One of these swf files is a guestbook which works when i dont load it into the empty clip and test it alone on my server (sending in the guestbook swf, html, php, and empty text file)
Now then, when i load in the guestbook into the main swf, nothing happens on the server when I test it - I am lost and now come to you people for advice. It obviously has something to do with being loaded into an empty movie clip that is causing conflict.
I have a drag and drop game. You listen to a sound for exampl "bread" You proceed to drag that mc to a box. If it is the right object I want to remove that mc and splice the array so it doesn't choose that object anymore. However I have notices two things.
When I splice(0) a specific element - then nothing works. When I splice the cuurent indexed element ie: the last element to get right - it doesn't actually remove it from the array. I have highlighted the key code parts.

I added a movieclip and named "bot_mc" in another movieclip. Then, In Action panel, I use bot_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.DOWN, xxxx). However, when I drag and drop the container movieclip on the main stage and compile. There is no error occurs but the MouseEvent doesn't work.
View 3 RepliesIm 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:

I have an external swf (sub.swf) that loads into my main swf. The external swf has buttons of its own...that I would like to use to load additional external swf's in its place. I click on the buttons and nothings happens.
My current code is as follows:
All of the following code is in my main.swf
================================
//Location where the external SWFs will load
var Xpos:Number=18;
var Ypos:Number=10;
[Code]...
External swf has no code except for a stop action.
I pieced this current code based on various articles I've found on the net.
how to attach a movie clip to another movie clip after drag and drop .I mean to say that is it possible to make a new movie clip with the target movie clip and dropped movie clip.
View 2 RepliesIf I wanted to make a type of ecard, whereby the user can drag and drop a text field wherever they like, and then type into this, is this possible? I know about drag and drop on movie clips, but can it be performed on items like text fields?
View 4 RepliesI have a button which, when a user drags it onto a movieclip is supposed to cause that movie clip to advance to frame 2. What I've used so far is this:
Code:
on (press) {
startDrag(this);[code]..........
The button drags fine, but when released over the movieclip nothing happens. I've tried using "_parent.slide1_mc.gotoAndStop(2);" instead to no avail.
so was just testing the Dragging and Dropping of objects in AS3....... for multiple movie clip using the same function.......however it's not working....and doesn't even show an error.........
Code:
package
{

I just read a thread on how to duplicate a movie clip and drag and drop it with AS2. However, I keep getting a syntax error on line 3. Attached is the file.
View 1 RepliesI have a button that has an onPress function that attaches a movieclip with startDrag(true) so the attached movie snaps to the mouse and can be dragged around. The problem is that I don't know how to set up the onRelease function so that when the mouse button is lifted the attached movieclip is removed. Also, the attached movie appears in the upper left corner for just an instant before snapping to the mouse.
View 9 RepliesI programmatically added 20 instances of a movie clip named "Token" to the stage. Token consists of a small rectangle and a dynamic text field. Each instance of Token was named "tkn." I'm attempting implement drag & drop for these movie clips. In the drag function which is called by the Mouse_Down event I've traced e.target.name. Instead of getting the name of the movie clip, tkn, I get name of the text field contained within tkn. After a lot of searching I found the mouseChildren property and within the code for the movie clip I now have the statement "this.mouseChildren = false;" This change corrected the name problem. I no longer get the name of the text field, but the movie clip name has been changed to "instancexxx," where xxx is a 3 digit number. Since I only want to drag the tkn movie clips I am testing e.target.name. How do I get Flash to keep the name of the movie clip as tkn?
View 2 RepliesI've got a movie clip that I want to be able to drag and drop on stage, I've added this code to do this:
correct1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp1);
correct1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt1);
function pickUp1(event:MouseEvent):void {

But the button still does what its supposed to do...but I fear I shouldn't have these errors coming up anyway as (knowing me) I'll run into trouble later on because of it... I would of thought as long as the button is within the movie clip there wouldn't be a problem dragging it about and such...
is it possible to drag a child from one movie clip and drop it in another.
View 1 RepliesI need to set up a Flash swf that enables me to drag and drop a series of shapes from point A to their individual point Bs. However, I need to ensure that this can only be done in a particular sequence. i.e. shape 1 must be moved first, then shape 2, etc. If the wrong shape is moved out of sequence, it snaps back to the starting position until the user moves the correct one.I have the following actionscript on a button within the movie clip which drags :
on(press) {
startDrag(this);
}
on(release) {
stopDrag();
[code]....
I need some way for the dragging and placing of each shape to only occur if the shape before it in the sequence has already been placed correctly.
I have a draggable movie clip that contains a button inside to hold my code. The target area is in the root and is a movie clip. I need to be able to drag and drop on the target. 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:
[Code]...
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.

I have written the drag and drop function for a movie clip this movie clip has a animation inside of it, this is on a seperate layer. When i play the swf, the animation and the movie clip it was inside become individual objects. How do I make these two objects into one entity?
View 1 RepliesMy project is to allow web visitors drag furniture onto a floor plan. I need the items to all be independent of each other with the drag and drop and then be able to rotate each item with a keyboard arrow.
The code I have allows all to drag and drop but I can only get the code to rotate one item. My Action Script 3 code follows:

Here is what I am looking to do. Currently I have a drag and drop built in AS 3 that works perfectly fine, but I'm looking to add one more functionality. What I want to happen is when I drop the correct drag item on it's correct target piece (which is a movie clip) I want my target movie clip to go a head one frame.
So as an example I'm dragging a piece of paper onto a movie clip of of a waste basket. When I drop the piece of paper on it the waste basket, the waste basket movie clip moves a head one frame which shows a crumpled up piece of paper in it. Here is my current code for my drop eventlistener:
function dropMe(event:MouseEvent):void{ event.currentTarget.stopDrag(); if(event.currentTarget.hitTestObject(event.currentTarget._targetPiece )) { event.currentTarget.x = 950; event.currentTarget.y = 100; event.currentTarget.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, dragMe); event.currentTarget.buttonMode = false; } else { event.currentTarget.x = event.currentTarget._origX; event.currentTarget.y = event.currentTarget._origY; }}
I'm having trouble managing the depths of my movie clips. I've got a startDrag() function and a stopDrag() function. Whenever I rollover another MC, I want the depth of that object to change to 1+ the object it rolled over.(I apologize if my English is poor) Can anyone give me a nudge in the right direction? EDIT: This is as far as I got, but cIndex returns the depth of the object that is currently being dragged; not the object it's hovering over... Is there a way to get that depth?

Sounds strange, but let me explain. What the user sees: Loading the page, color swatches fade in and slide over into place, row by row. Once in place, user can drag and drop swatches around, place side-by-side, etc. The script necessary to attach to a button so that all swatches can be reset back into place where they were, and not generate a replay of the initial movie clip from the beginning. (a goto and play is not what I'm looking for) Here's my code so far:

I am trying to create an application for students to visualize their course schedules.I have rectangles representing each class, which students can drag and drop to build their schedule.I would like the students to be able to type in the course number and name before adding it to the schedule.I have the drag-and-drop working, and editable text working. owever, when I try to edit the text, it drags the box as well.Therefore, I would like to be able to limit the "drag" functionality to one corner of the rectangle.So the user would have to click that part in order to drag the movie clip. Please see the attached image to get a better idea of what I'm talking about.
View 5 RepliesI have 4 shapes which fit into 4 boxes and would like to modify my code so when a shape is placed in the correct box a movie clip appears e.g. if a triangle is placed into a triangle shape the movieclip for triangle appears. if the shape is placed into the wrong box a message appears saying try again.
