I can not get my MOUSE_UP to stop the drag. The drag starts on MOUSE_DOWN but then the object sticks to the mouse.
rec1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,sta rtdrag);
rec1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,stopd rag);
function moveIt(rec:MovieClip):void

I bet this is not a new topic but I couldn't find solution for my problem in the net.I'm trying to make a super simple drag n drop. The code is below:
PHP Code:
s_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
s_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
[code].....
As soon as I start to drag the scrollbar, I get an error #1069 telling me that MOUSE_UP not found on flash.events.MouseEvent and there is no default value. I was watching a tutorial from Todd Perkins, and the scrollbar is built after his model. I really hope for an answer, it's killing me

I have a function that states when movieclip1 is dragged and hits a line then it stops the drag, however it seems to stop the entire drag function in the swf on the other movieclips even though they arent called in the function.[code]
View 1 RepliesWhat's the code to start drag and stop drag. I would also like to know what's the code to detect if the object has been dropped on something. I know the code in AS2 but i cant figure it out in AS3.
View 3 RepliesI am creating a Flash website (AS3) which contains multiple columns of swf's. These all have individual "start drag and stop drag" vertically and works fine. My problem is when I try to create start drag stop drag on top of these swf's horizontally - I want to be able to move the whole stage horizontally containing separate columns.
I am not sure how to code it and it ends up locking the "start drag top drag" inside the columns. How can I do this so that each column is scrollable and scroll to other columns without using a scroll bar...
i have an object that i want to drag and drop with the same event.Something like on press start drag and on press again stop drag. I'm sure it's pretty simple with and if and else statment but i can't find how to do that...The best i have done so far was this:

View 2 RepliesI am TRYING to get an mc to stop moving when it contacts another mc using hitTestObject and a stopDrag command The probem comes is that I want to be able to drag the mc again, but because it stop dragging while it is in contact with the target I can't move it again.Can anyone tell me how I can stop an mc dragging without losing the ablility to drag it again
function hitMe(event:Event){ if (top_mc.hitTestObject(phone_mc) || foot_mc.hitTestObject(phone_mc) || body_mc.hitTestObject(phone_mc)){ reply_txt.text = "CONTACT"; removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,hitMe); body_mc.x --;body_mc.y --;

I have a MC that drags and when I release it return to the inicial place. Now it's possible to make it stop drag normally, but only in a small part of the flash movie.For exemple in a sqare it stops drag normally..is that possible?I use this code:
Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
origX = this._x;

When the flash loads, the slideshow automatically starts. Then when i cpress on any of the thumbnail, then the timer for slideshow is stopped and currentIndex is updated, then the timer for slideshow is started. When i click on thumbnail images, everything is working except on one thumbnail image.Thus an error is showing which is
following:TypeError: Error #1010: term is undefined and has no properties at imageGall_fla::MainTimeline/slideTransition() at flash.utils::Timer/flash.utils:Timer::_timerDispatch() at flash.utils::Timer/flash.utils:Timer::tick()
how to fix it:
Code:
public function setupDragDrop(asset:MovieClip) {
asset.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, function(e:MouseEvent) {
trace("1");
[Code]....
so basically just a function to add drag and drop functionality to an asset, note that when you mouse_down on the asset it takes it from where-ever it is and moves it to a container that sits at the top level in front of everything else.
This however appears to 'disable' the mouse_up event, which is never called in this case. If i remove the re-parenting then the mouse_up is called fine.
I am trying to convert a project over to AS3 from AS2. Does anyone know if the cacheAsBitmap and setMask functions are still supported?If not, what can i use for the equivilant for the first 3 lines below?[code]
View 1 RepliesDrag and Drop: Could someone point me to a script that will handle startDrag and stopDrag better than the stock methods? I once saw something that was sooo smooth/responsive and I would love to have that look. I believe it used updateAfterEvent but did not use start or stop drag at all.
View 0 RepliesI am trying to make it so when the mouse leaves the stage it stops the drag, but no matter what I do it does not work, the function I am trying to do it in is onMouseLeave();
Here is my code and the corresponding code:

I have a movieclip named: F1. Inside F1 there are multiple movieclips (e.g. face_mc, lefteye_mc, righteye_mc, beard_mc, eyebrows, hair_mc etc). Now when I run the swf, the drag works fine when the mouse is on the face but if the mouse is on the eye/beard/mouth it only starts dragging that specific part only. For example, if the mouse is on the left eye and I start to drag only the left eye drags under the mouse.
Inside F1:
I tried grouping it but it didn't worked.
I also tried modify>combine objects>union....it removes everything but the face.
Code:
var buttons:Array = new Array(
_button1,
_button2,[code]........
I have 3 buttons on my stage (this is a small part of a larger project), named _button1, _button2, _button3 declared in an array so I can dynamically assign listeners and use a substring of the instance name to determine which button was clicked for other functions.My problem is that trace(e.target.name); returns the value _button1 on ROLL_OVER and ROLL_OUT as expected. However when clicking the button it returns "instance9" instead of the actual instance name I gave it.Why is this happening and how do I make it return the correct name? Why the hell would my buttonClicked function return a different result from the buttonOver function where the target is the same button for each function?
The addEventListener for MOUSE_UP doesn't work -> anybody know whats wrong? It works if I remove the enter_frame line
View 1 RepliesIs it possible to call a mouse-up listener if the mouse is stationary? So, if the mouse of moving over an object, and the mouse stops, you can send a mouse_up. My reason is because I'm working on a touch panel screen and it seems to keep the mouse on a constant state of left click down so I can't release any objects that are being dragged.

[Code]....
in my class I am trying to add a MOUSE_UP event listener to the stage.How can I do this?
PHP Code:
//when I do this in the main constructor of my class
Stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, h_draggable_mouseUp);
[code]....
What if I want to dispatch MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP when un-clicking only some objects, not all of them? I mean, when I add eventListener that listens for MOUSE_UP, it's dispatched (thought with different targets) every time I un-click anywhere, if you understand what I mean. How can I "fix" it?
View 1 RepliesAs I started developing mobile apps for iOS/Android using Adobe AIR I encountered strange problem (or feature). If you create Sprite and make it draggable using startDrag/stopDrag inside MOUSE_DOWN/MOUSE_UP event handlers, everything works. But if you add another listener MOUSE_CLICK to the same object, it starts to fire together with MOUSE_UP. Logically this behavior is all right.
What I need is to prevent firing MOUSE_CLICK handler when user drags the Sprite (startDrag) and I need it to fire when user did not drag the Sprite. What I'm trying to create is a small thumbnail bar which is draggable and after clicking on concrete thumbnail its large version/image opens up. This is actually not possible as MOUSE_CLICK fires everytime user drags whole thumbnail bar so large image opens up everytime.
How do I write a single function that would handle all three events of a single button? I am finding myself with 3 listeners and 3 different functions!
View 9 RepliesThere's no problem in my computer at work on this issue. When I press on something that is draggable, it's dragged. When I realease it (or realease it outside), it stops being dragged. But it does happen in my boss' computer! what a coincidence! It happens to be something related to very quick double clicks. Sometimes, the draggable movieclip gets stuck to the mouse movement even if it has been released. Is there something to take control on this? or is it any issue from an old version of the flash plugin?
View 2 RepliesI've got a large item on screen that can be dragged around by the mouse. I've simply put an invisible button on the item with:
on(press) {
this.startDrag();
}
[Code].....
but if I move the mouse pointer outside the stage area while dragging the item and release the mouse button the release is not detected and the drag stays activated and I have to bring the pointer back to the stage and click and release on the button again to stop the drag.
Is there a way to deactivate a drag when the mouse is released outside the bounds of the stage, perhaps by using a different method that doesn't rely on a button?
I use startDrag in the code and it works. But when I try stopDrag it doesn't stop to drag.

I thought I had a handle on the timer class (even just a beginners understanding), but I'm having trouble with it.I have an event listener for the timer and it starts fine i get a delay, then a tween,but when I place a myTimer.stop();in the fuction the listener called (to stop it) it dosent stop.it will repeat placing the first image, and then call the first function again
......Wait its placing the first image in (a couple of lines before the start), so Its restarting the whole movie, not just the function?
myTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, tweenone)
myTimer.start();
function tweenone (event:Event):void[code]...........
