ActionScript 3.0 :: Release Outside When Dragging Object?
Jul 27, 2011
I have a number of tabs which can be dragged around the screen.. I've constrained the movement to a rectangle using startDrag(false, rectangleName) but when I ROLL_OUT or MOUSE_UP outside of the constrain rectangle the tab does not register it, thus defining itself a new startX and startY once clcked on a second time..
private function tabOver(event:MouseEvent):void { event.currentTarget.scaleX = 1.05; event.currentTarget.scaleY = 1.05;}private function tabClick(event:MouseEvent):void { event.currentTarget.scaleX = 1.05;
[code].....

I'm struggling to get the mouse to release an object while in runtime...If I select the object to drag, and then drag it to the end of my stage without releasing, then go off the stage with my mouse and resize the window (x co-ords), the object seems to have an increment to the stage size, so hence when my mouse returns to the stage, the object is not "under" the mouse cursor anymore, which means it never registers the onRelease command given?
Is there a way that I can force a release on objects using AS2.0 code with another button, like a reset button?I have created the reset button, and it sends the object back to it's original place (where I picked it up), but it still has the same issue. (because the reset button is not near the point of pick up.) So... Forced "onRelease" was my solution, I just can't figure out how to do it...

I have an object on stage when the mouse is rolled over it the object will attach itself to the mouse (startDrag), the problem I'm having is that I still need the user to click on different objects while dragging that object but the onRelease function isn't registering.
Here's basically what I have
Code:
sucre = function():Void
{
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if( _root.packaging._currentframe >= 64 )

Underlined Text On (rollOver) Is there an action script to do on (rollover) underline text? It would be on a button that would also, on (release) gotoAndPlay a frame. I know you can have a movie with AS like this:
[Code]....
But when I add the on (release) to the movie it doesnt advance the timeline on (release). And when I change the file to a button instead of a movie clip it doesnt do the underline on (rollOver).

I have a project with Flash Professional CS5 and ActionScript 3.
I need to trigger an event when I drag an object over a particular spot, but haven't dropped it yet. Then, I need to trigger a different event when I leave that spot (still dragging). However, this should only occur while I am dragging on object.
The traditional mouse over and mouse leave events aren't working while dragging (only while not dragging).

What I would like to have happen, is when the user drags arrow_mc, it will only rotate between 0 and 90 degrees. If you go above 90 degrees, and continue dragging, it will stop moving. The same would happen if you went below 0 degrees.Currently, the code below works, but you can go around in circles back and forth.Iwith figuring out how to constrain the drag rotation between specifid numbers, in degrees.
ActionScript Code:
arrow_mc.onPress = function () {
arrow_mc.onMouseMove = function () {

my name is carrumbus I am a long time reader and first time poster and i have a problem I apologize in advance if this question to too simple and ridiculous for your brilliant minds It's very basic action script, but i cant figure out why it's not working
Basically, i have an empty stage, but for 2 objects a custom cursor (using the onclipevent mouse move, cursor hide, startdrag etc) and a movie clip of a little man (stick figure for now) all i want to do is, when i bring the cursor to the man and hold down on him, the cursor will goto frame 2, which will make it appear that the man i sitting on the cursor. at the same time the man symbol will be invisible and draggable. so that when i release the drag, the man will be put down somewhere else.

this is sort of a cross post (yes AND sorry), but I realized that it makes more sense to post it here than in FlashMX - so the moderators are welcome the first post. What I'm trying to do is gradually minimize an object, when dragged into a certain area. Let's say I have a box and when it is dragged away from the center it becomes gradually smaller.

I am doing some pre-production on a project that requires drawing on a 3d canvas, which I think flash is the best way to go. But there is a chance down the line that this client might want the site to show up on the ipad, iphone or other mobile devices that don't support flash.
So I was playing with the idea of doing everything in html and javascript except for the actual drawing/3D area. Almost like using flash as the element. I think html5 is too premature to start using this, but might be beneficial down the line. Chances are I will just go the entire flash route, but I thought it would be interesting to try. question is pretty top level. 1) how hard would it be to drag an object from an html page using javascript, and dropping it into the flashplayer. And then manipulating it from there.
Are there any examples out there that have tried to do this?

I can drag an object from one scrollpane to another, but I can't duplicate the object or everything will fall apart as you see if you try to scroll up and down in my .fla.
What I want it to do in the end:
I want the box to create a bigger size of itself, drag the larger clone that it created from pane A into pane B and scrolling in the panes would work. I'd go with attachmovie to make a bigger clone, but I'm not sure on how to do that.
If anyone could create a .fla with these things in order I would be so happy!
I can't attach a rar or a .fla... I can't post a link either.. I'm going to bend the rules just a little to attach my .fla.. The link is: http : // www .filedropper . com /2panes1box

I'm making a custom slider component. The head (the thing that you drag) is programmed like this:

head.startDrag(false, new Rectangle(stubDiv,0,width - stubDiv - ((levels-maxLevel)*stubDiv),0));

This is one of the threads that was deleted. I've come up with the same problem: how do you go about dragging an object around a fixed point (rotation)?
I can do a normal drag & drop, but with this i don't even know where to start

I am having a small problem in regards to a click and drag interface I am trying to create.
The user should be able to drag objects around the stage and when desired click to preform an animation.
The problem is that the click to initiate the drag also initiates the click of the animation to play.
I don't really want to make one of the commands a double click as that may feel clunky to some users.
Is there any way to cancel the animation click if the user moves the mouse before letting go?

I have a situation where I am allowing the user to drag a movieclip by means of startDrag and setting a rectangle. However while they are dragging this about, I want to register when the mouse moves over another object, however I can't seem to get this to work while they are dragging the object.

I need to have a color key that changes color in relation to how close/far the user drags a movie clip from the correct area. For example, if I have a circle_mc and want the user to drag it within a bounded area (trapezoid in this case), as the dragged mc gets closer to the correct area (a circle perhaps) the color of the color key box changes along a continuum from red (wrong/far) toward green (correct/close)

This is the scenario:
[AS]
// Assuming a lot more properties are added to all objects
var parent:Object = new Object();
var kid:Object = new Object();
var kidToy = new Object();
[code]....
Does making the parent object null recursively release all memory used by all subordinates in the hierarchy?

I'm working on a small application that uses some throw physics to fling items around the stage. Everything is working as it should, apart from when I test it on my touch screen, the throw physics don't work. I've tried all sorts of things, in in those tests noticed that AS2 release and release outside do work on the screen perfectly, whereas mouse up and mouse out do not!
So, is there a way to emulate the AS2 mouse events in AS3, as I have to stick with AS3 this time.

I'm making a menu, which moves buttons out of the way for other menu components, and also alternates backgrounds to make way for various external movieclips. So the stack of buttons have various instructions that differ, depending on where they are in the time line at that particular point. Does that make sense? What I'm having problems with is the changing of backgrounds. I have the various options on frames 1-4 on the main timeline. Everything works fine until the movie happens to already be ON the frame it is being told to go to. It gets confused and goes to a different frame instead. How can a tell the button to go to a particular frame on the main time line, but, if it is already on that frame, to do nothing?

I am developing a complete AS3 based corporative website. Everything is nice and cool, except that seems to be impossible to release memory... I have read tons of articles referring memory management on AS3, and applied all the techniques on my code: I'm using weakly referenced listeners, removing them when I am done, setting to null all my objects when I want to release them, using the method unloadAndStop whenever I want to unload one of my external SWF files, disposing my loaded bitmaps using bitmapData.dispose()...
And no way, the memory continues increasing to infinite and beyond... One thing that calls my attention: If I minimize my browser and only on that situation, the memory goes down on my task manager to a reasonable amount.

I've got a movie control which loads different .swf files into a blank movie when the user click an image below the main view. In windows it works fine and also in Safari 5 for Windows but I've been told it will just not work on a Mac in any browser.
Actions for Frame 1
loadMovie("movie1.swf","mainView");
bnt1
Actions for bnt1
[code]....
The frame 1 action works on the Mac but the mouse will not interact with the buttons to load the other movies when the user tries to click them.
I have other similar controls which work on the Mac but they are using on release get url functions for the interaction. All the swf files are loaded from the same directory as the control on the web server.
