I need detect that one dragging object over another.
1 example: use hitTestObject like here link 2 example: compare coordinates of two objects.
Code:
function drag(e:MouseEvent):void {
trace(e.target.x);
e.updateAfterEvent();
}
I have a draggable item, a MovieClip that calls startDrag() on itself when it is clicked, and another MovieClip on the stage.I need the MovieClip to receive ROLL_OVER and ROLL_OUT events while the draggable MovieClip is being dragged over it, but the lower clip doesn't receive these messages while a clip is being dragged over it.Essentially, ROLL_OVER is only sent to the topmost MovieClip under the mouse. Normally, you'd fix that with some combination of mouseEnabled or mouseChildren on the overlapping MovieClips, but if you do that to a draggable MovieClip, it breaks dragging. I need to detect when the mouse is over the lower MovieClip, regardless of what MovieClips are above it.
View 4 Replieshow can i stop the object from dragging when the object was already dropped to its target =)
here is my code :

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;

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 )

How to drag an object along a straight path using AS 3?
View 2 RepliesI 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).
I am trying to basically migrate this: [URL] to ActionScript 3.0 or some how achieve the same resizing effect.
View 5 RepliesWhat 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.
View 11 RepliesI 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
Is there a way to make the object that you are dragging land on only exaxt _x and _y? I have a object that is draggable with easing, but what happens is since i am using pixle fonts some times they are messed up is the person does not drag it to the exact pixle.
View 4 RepliesThis 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 currently have an dragable button that is locked to only move left and right within a small bar, and want to have that button playing one sound going left, and another sound going right.
View 3 RepliesI 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.
View 2 RepliesI 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)

View 1 RepliesI need to detect the name of any object pressed that is on the stage. This needs to be done by simply pressing the mouse on that particular object on screen.I tried looking down the Mouse.addEventListener and myObject.target route but did not get very far. Baring in mind that this needs to be done in AS2. I have found a way to do it in AS3 but could not work out how to reverese this as so it works within AS2
View 3 RepliesWith Flash, is it possible to detect whether an object is fully ontop of another ?E.g. I have a rectangle (floor surface) and a circle (furniture).
Now I want to detect whether the circle is fully in (=over) the rectangle, and not just whether it hits the rectangle somewhere.
when i do zoom in (by scaleX and scaleY), some of the object are shown and others disappear somewhere in the game area and on zoom out i see the whole grid again, the point is that i need to detect which objects are currently shown to the player and which aren't and hiding in the rest of the game's area.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to detect when an object (a golf ball) in my game stops bouncing. I need to track it's x and y position and tell when they both equal a set figure (the hole) a hitTest wasn't working as it was detecting each ball bounce not when it stopped rolling. So when the x and y both equal a figure.
if ((this._x = -106.5) && (this 47.55)){
_root.cheer.play();
}
This doesn't seem to work.
1. Need to be able to allow movie_clip2 to detect movie_clip1
2. Allow movie_clip2 to follow movie_clip1 only in the _y axis
I need to beable to detect and object or movie and allow another object/movie to follow that the first object/move but only moving up and down ........ not on the x-axis.
View 7 Repliesive used this code to detect a hit between a specific object and a certain MC
Code:
if(this.hitTest(_root.ufo)){
now i want to know if its possible to detect collisions with everything except (ignore) certain MCs because i only have 3 MCS i dont want it to care about , but there will be about 200 or more i want it to care for.
By, let's say, another display object. I have no idea what it was called.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to detect if a shared object's value has changed. Is there a way to do this? I'm using setProperty and it works fine but I need to change info the info has changed. I have tried event.changeList but it just shoots out [Objects] without giving me values. Can't it tell me a boolean to see if it has changed?
