I have set up some objects so that they can be dragged and dropped into an area(suitcase). This works fine but the thing is that when I move to another part of the timeline the object is put back in the same position it was in before being dropped in the suitcase. I need to be pointed in the right direction with this:
a) If an item is dropped into the suitcase then a message is displayed saying for example "you packed the socks"( I think I can handle this).
b) The object should stay in the case and be displayed there until the interaction moves on(I need this to happen).
c) The user must pack all objects before moving, so I need a way of recognising all objects are packed so that the user can move on..(I need this to happen).
Can i create a custom text animation or something. Ofcourse without involving variables. And can i use this Movie clip in various projects. What am i supposed to do, save it and keep it as a .fla or can the movie clip alone be saved and imported into various projects ?
View 5 RepliesI'm using AS3. I have a timeline with 12 labeled frames (page 1...page12). On frames 1 to 10, I have 3 objects that users can drag and drop onto matching places. There is a timer (60 seconds) and a counter. Users should match 15 objects correctly. If so, they go to frame 12 (congratulations!). If not, they go to frame 11 (Sorry, try again), which returns them to frame 1 (page 1).
ISSUE When users drag an object (mouseDown) and don't release it when time is over, the dragged object remains on the screen. When users go to frame 11 and game starts over, the object remains throughout the entire game.
How can I get rid of the dragged object that isn't dropped when the time is over?
ActionScript Code:
//
// TIMER
var time1:int=60;
var myTimer1:Timer = new Timer(1000, time1);

I'd like to create an ability to drag-n-drop ~10 max. objects onto target and to get a list or a line of names 'associated' with them, separated by commas or smth. Then, to be able to copy that list into clipboard.

I 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 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].............
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'm working on a map project with several movie clips that are dragged and dropped onto their respective movie clips.
PROBLEM: Initially, draggable movie clips are reduced their original size. When they are dropped onto their matching movie clip, I would like them to take the dimensions of the movies placed on the map. How to do that?
HERE IS MY CODE
stop();
var startX:Number;var startY:Number;var finalX:Number;var finalY:Number;
var finalWidth:Number;var finalHeight:Number;

I have a function dragging movieClips on the stage which pass over other movieClips which I'd like to identify somehow.
Is there a "built-in" way to do this in AS3?
what I have are pieces of a truck and the user needs to be able to drag and drop the pieces to the correct locations. I can get the pieces to drag, but I need help locking them into place once they get within a certain area. So for example if they drag and drop the wheels of the truck towards the back, but not in the exact location, then the movieclip will move and lock into place and then the movieclip becomes disabled.
var dragMC = finalMC.graphicMC;
///////////////////////////////////////
onMouseMove = function () {
updateAfterEvent();

I have a number of instances of a MovieClip on stage. These are dragged onto the stage and arranged manually. Now, I would like to alter the instances during run time, using as2 code.
how can I name all the instances of the same MovieClip dragged onto the stage, using as2 code? (specify if the solution involves exporting the library MovieClip with an identifier name)
I've got a question about depths. Im building a gallery that contains thumbnails (like the thread that happened a week or so ago). Each thumbnail is dragged and dropped somewhere to load something else. But, all of the thumbnails are going underneath the other thumbnails when dragged. What do i need to add to my movieclip thumbnails to have each one getFocus from the others when dragged?
View 5 RepliesFirst let me say I'm relatively new to AS 3 and I've scoured the Internet looking for a simple solution to no avail.Here's my general situation:1) I have dragged a movieclip with an instance name of a_mc onto the stage.2) On the first frame of the timeline I am importing a class file and calling its constructor:
Code:
import cardmaker.*;
var coverMaker:CoverMaker = new CoverMaker();

View 6 RepliesIn a project i'm doing I have a custom cursor, using the start drag command and mouse.hide. the issue being that the movieclip being dragged is blocking the mouse from initiation mouse events properly.
View 3 Replieshas anyone seen a handy component or code to monitor playback of your flv to see if flash is dropping frames.It would be nice to see total frames dropped, and maybe average frames dropped per second.In a perfect world it would be a graph over time.

I have made a drag and drop quiz, which can allow one drag_mc to be dropped to one of three target_mc's. I would like it that when the drag_mc hits any one of the target_mc's that it goes to and plays the drag_mc's frame 2.
Here is my code so far

I am working on this image scroller, where thumbnails of images are displayed. I get each image by
function urlLoaded(event:Event):void {
urlLoader.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,urlLoaded);
xml=XML(event.target.data);
[Code]....
So is there anyway I could use any of the above code to load the big image associated with the small image? If event.target points to the current thumbnail being picked up, could i do something like event.target.url to point to its name or something?
I have this slideshow type of thing I'm putting together with next and back buttons. Everything works fine until I add audio to the timeline and then all my nav buttons flake out. I don't want to load these files externally or from the library because they are voiceover narration with all my animation synced up with what is being said.

This part that I'm working on consists of trading a hobo some twine for his alcohol. I'm trying to get the twine to disappear with dropped on the hobo, as well as the alcohol he is holding, which makes the twine leave my inventory and replaces it with the alcohol.

View 1 RepliesI have an image loaded from an url and added to canvas as child. Then I am drag and dropping another image on it which also uses the senocular transform so the image can be transformed on the canvas. I have coded in such way that the transform handles shows up only after it's dropped on canvas. The image shows up correctly. But I am trying to save the result image (that is the main image and the dropped image on top of it), I only end up with the main image that was loaded earlier. The dropped image doesn't show up.
Below is the code for handleDrop() that is fired on dragDrop event and prepares the final image.

Just trying to add a little more functionality to this code for a drag and drop interaction. Suppose I have multiple objects to drag and some will have the same target. Right now (with this code), the draggable object gets positioned in the center of it's target so my draggalbe movieclips will overlap eachother once they're dropped on the correct target.
What I'd like to do is prevent this overlapping and have the movieclips slightly offset on the y axis so they cascade a bit. Could do this by writing out alot of code for the individual movieclips but i'd like to condense it a bit.
Code:
function dragSetup(clip, targ) {
clip.onPress = function() {
startDrag(this);

I am trying to get a flv video to load on top of a parent swf. (A pop-up within flash). What I chose to do, was to put the flv player in a swf and try to load and unload it with the parent swf. This works great except when the child unloads, the music from the flv keeps playing. I am wondering if I have to do more than just a simple add and remove child. Here is what I have to load the swf when a button is clicked:
Code:
var movieLoader:Loader = new Loader();
playMovie_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showMovie);
function showMovie(event:MouseEvent):void {
movieLoader.load(new URLRequest("memories_vid.swf"));
addChild(movieLoader);
[Code] .....
Once it plays the outro animation into empty keyframes. Every attempt I have made to removeChild has not work. I still have the audio from the flv playing. How do I get "close_btn" to stop everything and to completely unload the swf?
I have an image loaded from BitmapData displayed in an Image control. This Image control has dragEnabled and user can drag and drop small images (from a bunch of images in a TileList) on top of it.
The image loaded from the Bitmapdata can be different every time with different resolution and the Image control scales it down to fit its fixed with/height. But while saving the image after editing I am saving it with its original width/height. For this purpose I am storing the original Bitmapdata in a temp object and applying any edits there before saving.
how to create an image combining the Large image and the small images dropped into it. May be I can use display object snapshot but then I want to save the image with its original with/height and preferably after converting it to Bitmapdata.
How can I find the index of a item dropped into a list in flex using a spark list?
