how to get my move drag and drop a copy of the reindeer. (see attachment) I've been mulling over for so long i'm starting to confuse myself. It's go to be something simple that i'm over looking.
View 5 RepliesI want to have an image and when I click on the image ,one can hold down the mouse and drag a copy to where ever on the stage and when one lets go, one can drag another and another with each copy still being able to be dragged after released.this is what i have but its pretty simple and doesn't work....
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,makeA Box);
var i:Number = 1; //i will be the total number of boxes
var newBox:myMC = new myMC();[code]....
I have a movie clip = circle
When the user clicks the circle I want the user to be able to drag and drop a new instance ie circle1.This whole process needs to be repeatable.......ie next time user clicks the original circle ie circle the code must know the last instance number ie circle1 exists and when the user clicks circle that circle2 is created dragged and dropped.....so on and so on.
This is easy you may say - duplicatemovie and startdrag etc........the problem is that when the user clicks on the original circle the mouse focus is on the original circle and not the new instance just created ie circle1 which then needs to be dragged and dropped.Just to complicate things the user needs to be able to delete a circle at any time by using the keyboard 'del' key.
I have a tree (in Flex 3.5), and I want to use the drag & drop functionality, but I want to let the user only move nodes, not copy them. I tried listening for the dragOver event and change the drag event's action property if it indicates a copy operation, and also listening for the keyDown event and changing the feedback using the DragManager if the pressed key was ctrl, but to no avail.
View 2 RepliesI am going to have what is essentially a grid of 12 boxes. 4 across 3 high. There will be an object in each box. What I want to do is to allow the user to drag an object from one box into another. This will cause the other objects in the boxes to move up one position to fill in the gap that is left by the object being dragged. I have no idea what this is called or so I don't know how to Google it. Does anybody know if there are any tutorials on how I can get this done?

I found 2 seperate tutorials one does button clicks to move and rotate code.[code]When I add the second lot of code to the first app (ie add a layer and insert the script ) change myPoint to rocket . I get the following errors:'{' expected

View 4 RepliesI'm trying to make a simulation where a person can drag 2 different objects to any 4 predefined targets on the stage. Based on the position of the 2 objects there will be a different output text. I hope I described that clearly. I would also like the 2 objects to snap to the 4 targets. Im very new to AS. Im starting to be able to read it a bit but still can not wright it.

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:

View 1 RepliesI have added drag and drop to some of my custom components.The drag event is fired on mouse down.If you mouse down and move the component around then drop it repeatedly its fine.But if you mousedown and drag the component around drop it and THEN just click on the component it inits the drag but doesn't fire the drop event.Its almost like you have to move the component for it to fire the drag drop event.This is very annoying as i'm removing the component on drag init and adding it again on drop, so just clicking on it makes it disappear.
View 1 RepliesIf I have a movieclip on the main timeline, is there a way to put this movieclip inside another movieclip on stage (ofcourse during runtime) ? I know that one of the methods of doing this is using bitmapdata class to capture an image of the movieclip (draw method), then attaching the object it to another movieclip that can be anywhere, but this will make the movieclip lose it's interactivity behaviour, and vector quality.

View 3 RepliesI am developing a simple drag and drop game..except my draggable items are in a movie clip and my targets are also in a movie clip. My draggable objects work fine, they drag and snap back into place when the mouse is let go, but... they dont snap to their targets.They do snap to their targets when they are directly on the timeline, but inside another movie clip it doesnt work and i can't figure out why.[code]
View 1 RepliesBasically, there will be two images, which participants are to choose between. Below the pairs of images will be a horizontal bar with arrows at both opposite ends. I would like the participant to be able to drag and drop a small rectangle somewhere along the bar to represent their choice (and the degree of their endorsement).Basically, I'm asking how to make an interactive scrollbar on its side (without buttons, just the drag). I would also like it to start in the middle of the bar and be able to be moved in either direction.
View 2 Repliesusing 'drag and drop' in flash without overlapping?
For example - I have a list of buttons i drag to an area on the stage. I do not want my buttons to overlap.
I've dynamically created a bunch of MCs from a single MC in the library.
Inside the MC's timeline, I have written drag and drop code.
The MC's reside in a parent movieclip, that then resides in a scrollpane.
I was wondering if it's possible to write AS3 to drag the clips into another movieclip?
If not the way I have it, is it possible at all to drag MC's from one container MC to another?
I am trying to do a flex drag and drop. It is very similar to this first example.url....The problem is that event.currentTarget.mouseX,mouseY is showing the position where I put the mouse down rather than the position where I had finished dragging.

View 2 RepliesFlash is completely the wrong app for this, but I don't have access to anything else.I need to parse through a set of files and do some regular expression work on them.Is there a way to drag and drop the text files to do the work on via CS4/AS3? The filenames will always be different, so I can't just hard code that info.
View 2 Replieshow to make a mp3 player functionality, like for example winamp has, that you grab the mp3 and drag in into the playlist/player and it automatically plays?
View 2 RepliesI'm looking into having a interface using multiple windows which you can drag by pulling the dragbar around.Each window would be a movieclip called *****_win and inside would be a dragBar that the mouse has to pull around to move the window.I have searched a lot on google, and decided to end up asking here.
1) All the code I used so far did not have any borders. (The borders would be the stage, not an image).
2) Whenever I dragged an object, it would drag the whole window.
3) If the cursor left the window while dragging (which is does a lot), I have to drag it again.
Anyway how I can do an OS-like way of dragging a window?
