I have a movie that I want to be dragged on the x coordinate on click, and if you drag it to the left it should play a different movie then when you drag it to the right. here is what I tried so far and of course it does not work.
[Code]....
I have to use the old drag and drop code on my movie clips, but the problem is when I drag the movieclip to the area on my .swf file once i release it, it sticks to the hand mover.I am encloseing the action script I am using could someone or kglad tell me what is missing from the code so that once it is released it will not stick, see code belowcircle.onPress = function(){ startDrag(this);}circle.onRelease = function(){ stopDrag();}

What I want to happen is that after you drop the dragged symbol into the landing area the symbol disappears instead of staying in the landing area.
I have made a flash application and in this flash application I have included a jigsaw puzzle. The application is wrote on one timeline and certain frames are used as different pages within the application.
The problem is once the jigsaw drag and drop are moved the pieces are displayed on all frames instead of just the one jigsaw puzzle frame I created.
How can I make these drag and drop items not be shown on the other frames?[code]...
I am using drag and drop functionality, with duplicateMovie clips. Everything is working great. However, I'm trying to create a little more functionality. Say someone drags an icon onto the artwork, once they have it positioned, they decide that they don't want to use that particular icon. Is there a way to just delete the icon that was dragged?

View 1 RepliesBasically what I have is a 31 frame, frame-by-frame animation that plays(no stop() command at all currently) in a continuous loop on one "page" of a flash presentation. What I need to be able to do is set it up in actionscript 2.0 so that when a viewer has his mouse over the movie symbol and then clicks and drags to the right, the movie plays forward, click and drag to the left and it plays in reverse, and on release stops on the frame it is currently on.
I need it set up so that if someone is dragging it to the right and reverses direction, the frames are played in reverse from that point (frame) and vice versa and releasing the mouse button stops the movie on that frame: e.g. if the viewer is dragging right up to frame 20 then starts dragging to the left the animation will play backwards from frame 20 to frame 1 so long as the mouse button is held down) I can't use playback buttons, I have to set this up this way for a specific reason for a work project. I'm not even sure if I explained it correctly If I can set this up on the frame the symbol is nested in, fine. If it has to be done within the symbols' animation, fine. Doesn't matter really, the end result is what counts.
I am trying to simulate onpress and onrelease functions but using onMouseDown and onMouseUp.squareContainer can be dragged around but squareBack, which is inside squareContainer changes colour when clicked. These both work.But.. when I drag squareContainer around, if the mouse is on squareBack (back) it changes colour as it sees it as onMouseDown. In the mouseUp, if squareContainer has changed position then it has been dragged. Then, using this I somehow want to say in mouseDown that if squareContainer is being dragged then dont change colour.. but it doesnt work!!![code]
View 1 RepliesI'm supposed to create something like this:1. Create 4 coat of arms (Shields2. Pour colour onto different segments of the shields3. Click and drag objects onto the shield4. PrintMy problems lies in step 3. How do I actually create multiple copies of the same object that I clicked and dragged? At the same time, I also want the original copy to stay in position so I will only need to click and drag on the original copy to create the duplicates.I got the code from the net (I'm no pro in this). What I did was, convert the object into a button, then into a movie clip. Double-clicked the movie clip, I inserted the following code on the movie clip:
on(press) {
duplicate(this)

View 2 RepliesI am using event.event.localX to get the x-axis but it is with reference to local coordinates. How can I get or pass the value of the HBox's xAxis that is clicked by the user so that I can add it in the xAxis of the local coordinate. In other words, I need the global coordinate value? (i.e. x-axis & y-axis)
View 1 RepliesHow to take one symbol and when I click, convert it to another until I release. Imagine a hand(which is what I am using) and when you click, it pinches 2 fingers together until you release. I have both symbols created but I am stuck as to how to get flash to perform this. The only help I could find was how to make movies play with a click.
View 3 RepliesI'm a beginner in flash actionscript. I want to basically swap images using actionscript. So if you click on a thumbnail, the main big image will change corresponding to the thumbnail being clicked. I don't want to use a simple on click go to and play actionscript... I'll try to paint a picture of what I'm trying to achieve.
There is a background image, middle ground and foreground image... people will have a selection of thumbnails to chose from to change these images (so they are creating their own big picture) Once the user clicks on a thumbnail for the background, the main image will change corresponding to the thumbnail.. and the same for middleground image and foreground image. I can acheive this in director using lingo but I am required to use flash and actionscript.
I have Flash var array that I want to swap for another array on mouse click. It currently loads the initial array into the empty MC perfectly. Now I need it to swap to var productTxt2 when the user presses buttonMC. My code is below.
AS2 code:
var productTxt1 = new Array(
"Product Name 1", "Price 1", "Headline 1", "Copy 1");
var productTxt2 = new Array(
"Product Name 2", "Price 2", "Headline 2", "Copy 2");
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("productInfoMC", 0);

View 1 RepliesSimple drag and drop application where mc is dragged out of one parent mc and dropped into another parent mc.All works OK until I added 2 text boxes to the mc's -- one is a non-selectable dynamic text box (a label) which is set by the code, the other is selectable input text that the user can amend.
Finger cursor disappears when user hovers over the section of the mc that contains the text fields (even non-selectable text??) When the user trys to drag the mc by inadvertantly click-dragging anywhere within both text areas it causes this error: TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.text::TextField@2374a381 to flash.display. MovieClip (same error appears for both text boxes)
The input text box may confuse the user - how do they sometimes click to drag and sometimes click to amend? I need to create an overlay area within the mc that is click-detected for the drag? Here's the relevant bits of code:
var itemArray:Array = [
{iname:"police",ititle:"POLICE OFFICER"},
{iname:"insurance_assessor",ititle:"INSURANCE ASSESSOR"},[code].............

View 1 RepliesI recently posted a .swf inside a new window with javascript. everything works fine on a PC, the movie will load on a mac. You should be able to click and drag to "spin" the object within the movie (it cycles a series of photos to give a 360 view), but when on a mac the cursor changes but images are not cycling. i'm sure it could be a number of different things but I'm unsure where to start.

View 10 RepliesI have the standard drag and drop functionality setup with the MOUSE_DOWN / MOUSE_UP commands. However, if I just click on the item and decide not to drag, it still executes the commands like it was dragged.

View 3 RepliesI have a movie clip (pano_mc) that I can click and drag left and right. When I drag it to the right, it stops dragging when the left edge of the clip reaches the left edge of the stage. This is great!
When I drag the image to the left, the right side edge if the clip does not stop at the right edge of the stage, but continues to click and drag until it reaches the left edge of the stage.
I need the left edge of the clip to stop at the left edge of the stage and the right edge of the clip to stop at the right edge of the stage.
Here is the code I have so far
The pano_mc is registered to the top right corner and is 7024px in length. I know it is a bit large. The axis_mc is anchored to the upper left.

I need a few answers and pointers for my game [URL] First off, is it possible for a graphic to be hidden once a movie clip has been dragged over it? The plan is for the grid to be covered in question marks, until the users drags the small smiley over the same large smiley at which point the question mark will be hidden revealing the large smiley. The user then gets a 2nd chance to match up the other remaining smiley, if they fail to get the right smiley is it possible for the question mark image to appear back over the top of the smileys?
View 5 RepliesI am working on an interactive banner and I came to a problem I can't resolve. It's a kind of drag and drop little game. I need to play a movie clip after something is dropped in the right place. I think I need to add Event Listener to a movieclip and create a function with a conditional, but I'm getting it wrong.
View 2 RepliesI'm creating a small drag & drop activity, and I want to be able to check and see if the dragged movie clip is completely within the bounds of another movie clip (or at least in the bounds of a certain x/y zone on the main stage. I can't use dropTest because it returns true if any tiny bit of the movie clip overlaps with the dropTest movie clip.
I also thought of something that just checks the x/y coordinates of the dragged movie clip, but I'd need this to reflect a range of values rather than one coordinate. For instance, I'd want to return true if the movie clip's x is between 50-60 AND the y is between 50-60. I'm attaching a small graphic to illustrate in case my explanation isn't clear enough [URL]
