using action script...
stop();btn001_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,showimage1);function showimage1(event:MouseEvent):void { gotoAndPlay(10);}btn002_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,showimage2);function showimage2(event:MouseEvent):void { gotoAndPlay(20);}
however movie is playing without stopping to "Listen" for a Mouse CLICK. Images placed at frame 10 and 20 should appear only when CLICK'd.
This code is straight out of Classroom in a Book CS4.
in AS2 it was
Code:
on (press) {
startDrag(this);
}
on (release) {

i want "x_mc" to droptarget on "y_mc" and use an action
I'm having a little problem of which I'm guessing the solution isn't that hard.. but I just can't put my finger on it...
The thing is: I have got 5 movieclips which are able to drag and drop. Next to that I've got 20 containers which are all droptargets. The movieclips are able to be dragged and then dropped on a container. So far so good. But what I want is that when I drop a movieclip on a container which already has a movieclip dropped on it, the first movieclip gets removed and the second movieclip is dropped on the container. Or you could also say.. that the second movieclip replaces the first movieclip. This instead of the fact that a container has multiple movieclips dropped on itself.

I have been going nuts all day trying to figure out why my 'drag and drop onto a target' movie doesn't work. I have a movie clip to drag onto another movie clip which is the target.when the first clip is dragged onto the target clip i want the target clip to gotoandplay(2);
the clicking and dragging and stopdrag() etc works, but when I drop the piece over the target, it just does nothing.here is my code on the MC that is being dragged:
on(press){
startDrag (this, true, 135, 95, 700, 440);
}
on(release){

I'm testing out some different things right now and I'm trying to make a box, that, when one of two balls is dragged and dropped into it, causes the correct color text to display (i.e. redBall displays "RED", blueBall displays "BLUE" when dropped into box).I've gone through a few different ways of doing this, but now I"m trying to use dropTarget.I'm finding that when I drop it into the box using the code below, everything works fine, but if I drop is anywhere outside the box, I get an error stating "Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference."I'm assuming that I'm just wording this second dropTarget conditional statement (if (e.currentTarget .dropTarget == null)) incorrectly, but I'm not sure how to fix it.Here's the code of the dropping function I'm using:[code]....
View 3 RepliesI made a flash site and one of the pages has drag and drop functions with drop target actions, so that text appears once dropped onto a target.It works fine but when I have it loaded inside an external editor, the drop and drag still works but the drop target function stops working.
View 0 RepliesI'm building a grammar excercise where I've got 24 drag'n'drop cards (movieClips), that I can drop into two 'slots' or dropTargets. Each card has its corresponding card, and when the right cards are dropped in the dropTargets, they get a 'well done' message, and a button appears so the user can go on to matching the remaining cards. When the button is clicked, I want the dropped cards to simply disappear.
View 7 RepliesI'm setting up some objects connected to classes onto a movie clip dynamically, and although I'm setting the name fine, when I drag another movie clip on top of it and trace for droptarget.name I always get something like "instance01" what am I doing wrong?
View 4 RepliesHow can I create through actionscript (i.e. not drawing it on the stage) a drop target that works? For some reason I can't work it out. I tried the following code (it looks reasonable), but nothing happens when I drop the square_mc on the target[code]...
View 2 Repliesis there something similar to currentTarget with dropTarget?Right now dropTarget will get me the "lowest" DisplayObject possible, but I'd like to get the top-most. I cannot use parent as my objects are of different nesting depths.
View 1 RepliesI have a drag and drop based SWF. When I pick up a MC and move it , when I put it down it gives me the MC it is on.However there are times when the returned MC isnt the intended MCEg. The top of the MC is *just* on top of One MC but the mouse pointer is over another (the intended spot), So I am trying to find out if there is a way to return the MC that the mouse is over, rather than the MC's top left corner.

function ball_drag(event:MouseEvent):void {
ball.startDrag();

when the stopDraggingMe() method is called from another object (code shown below) I need to see all the objects on the stage to see what objects on the stage my currently selected movie clip is over and assign it to the dropCheck.checkAgainst method (that will be checked against an array to see if it can in fact be dropped, if so set the canBeDropped value to true and therefor run the .stopDrag() ). I have read using root is not a good coding practice in AS 3.

I want to drag a object using a animated hend (MovieClip) and drop it in a holes. I cannot use dropTarget method to this because when i trace(object.dropTargat.parent.name) output shows "hend" only.
View 3 RepliesI have a draggable button , and I need to go to "scene1" when the draggable button is dropped into a droptarget ("dentro1") But it doesn�t work with this action (gotoAndPlay), it works with load movie, or get Url. It only goes inside de droptarget (called "dentro1") This is the code of the draggable button:
on (rollOver) {
startDrag(root_draggablebutton, true);
}

I have a movie clip which i use as a drop target. And I have four additional movie clips which can be dragged and dropped into the droptarget movie clip. But when I place a movie clip into a droptarget and I drop the second one too, the droptarget for the second one becomes the first movie clip but not the actual droptarget movie clip.

View 1 RepliesUnfortunatly im having to extend to more draggable objects. So they will be within another movie clip so i can have them scrolling. After making the scroll, the draggable objects dont register on the droptarget as they are within another movie clip. Below is i think the part of the code that needs to be changed so the draggable objects know where to find the drop target.
View 1 RepliesI have 12 movieclips on one layer, each are draggable some perform an action some dont. The problem is the levels when they are dragged some are above the other clips on the same layer and some are below. I want the dragged clip to be above all clips. Also on the stage there are text boxes over the "droptarget" they have to be on a layer above to be visible. So therefore the area where the text box is does not allow the dragged item to perform its task, the "droptarget" function does not work.

I have an issue where removechild won't infact remove a child. I think its something to do with my dropTarget.parent issues. The concept of the code is that you drag a source onto a destination. When you drop the source onto the destination you will get a text field that says "Hello" or "Goodbye". The objective i want to achive is that once i drop a source onto the destination, removechild will remove any previouse textfields added. This is proving difficult.

I've got a for loop and some fuctions working, but can't get one line of code to work. The red line below is what I'm having a hard time with. I'm calling a function called "moveit". If I insert moveit(x1, y1); then it works, and my movieclip is moved to the x and y positions that I specified for item #1. Though I want it to work for 10 items (I only have coordinates for two here, and will add the rest later).
I've searched my ActionScript book and just can't figure out what the syntax should be for calling that function.
