ActionScript 3.0 :: Drag And Drop - Click On The Image ,one Can Hold Down The Mouse And Drag A Copy?
Nov 13, 2010
I 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]....
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.
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 want to give viewer the ability to hold and DRAG MC2 in MC1 MC1 is gonna be the frame, while MC2 will be some bit bigger than MC1 (the frame), in dimension. And the viewer would be able to HOLD and DRAG MC2's image in MC1's frame. Please guide me with the actionscript required for it ?
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:
After I drag and drop a label(or other UIComponent) in a container, i want to double click the label to show me an alert. well it doesn't work.
i've tried in the dragCompleteHandler to put event.dragIntiator.addEventListener or event.currentTargetaddEventListner but it doesn't work. Also i enabled the DoubleClickEnabler and still nothing?
In Flex 3, I have an ItemRenderer that has a button in it. I want users to be able to click and drag this Renderer, but also just click the button. Right now it's working with the Renderer listening on "MouseMove" to initiate drag and drop, and the button listening on "click". However this is very screwy. If somebody is dragging a scroll bar and comes anywhere near that renderer, MouseMove gets fired on the renderer and initiates dragging.
(or if somebody is resizing a HDividedBox, basically if someone initiated a click anywhere in the app and rolls over this renderer, we get unwanted dragging. The alternative is listening on MouseDown instead of MouseMove, which fixes the previous issue, however the nested button loses it's click. I can click on the button, but the renderer just thinks it's time to Drag.
I'm building a flash app that has some draggable buttons on it and I want them to behave like this:
You click on it, ClickEvent1 happens, You click and hold on the button, you can move it. If you release from the hold, it does NOT trigger the ClickEvent
I'm running into the logic problem of not knowing whether a user is just clicking or starting a drag event. Does anyone know any logic to get around this issue? I have thought of alternatives such as placing regions of the button that are only draggable or only clickable, but I've seen this type of functionality in other flash apps and I'm wondering how it is accomplished.
When it starts, I switch tab to nr.2 (default is tab 1). I need to be able to hold down spacebar and drag the mouse to pan, but when I do this it switches back to the first tab. So the spacebar is triggering it to switch. I've tried using a custom lass that extends tabNavigator, like the code below, but it's not working. Also tried setting focusEnabled = false without luck.
What i'm trying to do is make a drag able square and use a different cursor that I made to do so. It worked fine until I added the code for the cursor.[code]...
I have one movieclip inside which I created few movieclips...I applied drag drop functionality to main movieclip with which all movieclips inside of it also get dragged along with it..and I want inside movieclips to act as buttons meaning on clicking perticular movieclip it should perform perticular event assigned to it... How to make movieclips into buttons and the main movieclip containing these buttons with drag drop functionality?
I'm really new to AS3 and could use some help. I have a movieClip with a drag and drop functionality that's working fine but then inside this movieClip is a dynamic text field and it won't let me click over the text field to start dragging and if I click off to the side I can drag but the movieClip is automatically centered and then I can't drop because now the text field is under the mouse and it keeps saying:
ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property stopDrag not found on flash.text.TextField and there is no default value. at MethodInfo-10()
Why is AS3 so finicky? I'm clicking on the MC for the love of $(*%@ not the text field. Errr..
I want to replicate the standard startDrag/stopDrag events with my own routine to alter things a bit, and I run into some kind of event propagation or bubbling problem. Here is my code:
The problem with this code is that as you drag the object to the right, you will see in the trace that occasionally some random localX values arrive there, resulting in the object jerking from side to side.
I've been going through some tutorials and samples of "drag and drop" flash movies and I always come upon the same bug. The drop target gets "stuck" to the mouse, and when I click the target it just drops down and doesn't return to its orig. position. This mostly happens when the target in the "lower order" is dropped behind a target that is "in front of it" Now I have used the [code]...
im working on a website at the moment (just for fun) and are done with the layout and almost everything. Now I want to make one of the pictures so you can drag and drop it around on the site. The problem is that it does'nt work, i've tried out many different tutorials and codes without success. Sometimes i get the 1120 error and when not, nothing happens.
I need a way to drag and drop an image from a container to another. I have tried a few different ways but I guess the drag & drop thing is still eluding me. Anyway, here's what I am trying to do, A container will contains a few bitmap/vector image (what's the best way for this? Tile Group? Or?) and then I want to be able to drag any of the image onto another larger Image inside of a Panel. Just like dragging shapes in Photoshop. No code here, as I am completely lost on how to go about it. I found a few tip/tutorial here and there but none which I could understand easily or adapt to my need.
Edit 1 : Got so far till now : public function beginDrag( mouseEvent:MouseEvent ):void {
in the following SWF example: [URL] you can see small iphone application created with flash cs5, this application has blue rectangle, you can drag and drop this rectangle with your mouse cursor.. ok no problem in the code, but i want ask a question: when i run this application in iphone device, my finger will drag and drop the rectangle instead of mouse cursor ? or I need change the code? here is the code i used:
I have a TileList that's loaded with data from Flickr. The tilelist uses an imageRenderer to make a bunch of thumbnails. I'm trying to create a custom drag and drop function, but I want to get the image source of the tilelist mouseEvent target. Here's what the code looks like for the drag handler:
I am implementing drag and drop from a DataGrid onto a List in a Flex 3 AIR application. I would like to have the drag image be a photo (jpg) referenced by a String field in the data grid item, named 'imagePath'. I'm having trouble getting the image to show up during dragging. I have triple checked that it is not because of an invalid path to the image. I have tried Image's source() and load() methods in every way I can think of. I am calling this method 'dragCurrentToList(event)' on a mouseDown event.[code]This works perfectly if I set the image source to the following bindable variable but I don't want to hardcode the image name.[code]
I have a very simple question, but I can not find solutions to it. I need to add multiple images that can be moved with the mouse. This components NumericStapper must be in the group with the image and move together.[URL]
This is what I used to load an external image into a movie clip and drag and drop. The feedback part is pretty much the same from the old code.[code]...
I am working in a small web applications. this web applications let us to drag and drop the text and image from html page inside the flash player. when I tried to google the scenario I came to know about Drag and drop in AIR. but it is also specified that it will be only used in AIR and not in player is there any other way to work this out.
I would like to know how to set up the URLRequest to load an external image to a movie clip that is being used in a Drag and Drop event.I have successfully implemented the drag & drop code to my design but I would like to improve it by successfully loading external images to those objects that are being dragged around.I have both Var Load and starDrag codes. I am trying to figure out how to combine them.
I have run into a drag and drop issue .I have an item that I would like to drag and drop. Seems simple enough, but I also want to make it that if the user drags the image off the screen, that it stops dragging and returns the image to the center of the screen. What happens now is that it continues dragging and sticks to the cursor if you release outside of the viewable area. The original piece has a lot of other things going on, so I ve created a simple piece with the AS in the timeline that shows only this particular issue.
Code: var mrT:MC_mrT = new MC_mrT; addChild(mrT); mrT.x = stage.stageWidth*.5;[code].............
