how can I drag a specific image without dragging all the other objects. The image to be dragged is exported dynamically from the library and activated on a mouse over. Here is the code:
function myImage(event:MouseEvent):void {
var img:BitmapData=new livery(0,0);
var MyImg:Bitmap=new Bitmap(img);
[Code]....
I found examples in adobe site only to position the object where the mouse pointer is. But i have to place the image in the position of drag proxy image.
View 1 RepliesHow can I constrain an image in a container to only a horizontal drag that when it collides with another image 'pushes' that image along that same horizontal line.
View 1 RepliesI 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].............
I want to create a flash movie which firstly loads a selection of images/objects into a portion of the frame. After this is complete, the user can then drag these objects onto another area and the object will be created where the user has chosen. The user can then drag another instance of the ojects onto the area.
For example, there is a background of a lake in one area. A selection of boat pngs are loaded in an area below the lake. The user can drag these boats and place them on the lake. They can drag a boat multiple times if they wish.
Is it possible to handle keystrokes WHILE dragging? I found this to be impossible, because hitting a key always fires an "onRelease" or "onReleaseOutside" event on the dragged movieclip when releasing the key - intterupting the drag operation. What I want to do is something like this: Drag and Drop a Movieclip and while dragging it I want to be able to flip it with a keystroke.

I was wondering, if I have two list boxes, and I want to drag and drop between both of them, how do I prevent the user from dragging onto the same list (thus duplicating the item? I cannot have a situation where that is the case
View 5 Replieshow would you prevent dragging for some items of your List or DataGrid?
Let's say I had a list with two items: 'Tom' and 'Jerry'. Only 'Tom' should be dragable, not 'Jerry'.
Ideally I had a 'isDragEnabled(item:Object):Boolean' function, which is being queried by the drag source.
My difficulties start with the fact that the 'dragStart' event handler has a null value for the dragSource, so right from the start I find it hard to find out what the drag-start is about..
PS There have been a few discussions on preventing or canceling a drop, but I haven't seen much about preventing the drag start, hence this question.
I have several drag and drop interactions in which they get points if they drag it to the correct position. The problem is they can move it out and back again to keep adding points to their score. I need to put some code in the correct portion of the drag and drop code that will make the word stay where it is when it's correct instead of letting them drag it again.

View 1 RepliesThe code for dragging an object with the mouse is known:
mc.onPress=function(){this.startDrag(false);};
mc.onMouseUp=stopDrag;
I tried to drag two objects at a time using
mc.onPress=function(){this.startDrag(false);mc2.st artDrag(false);};
mc.onMouseUp=function(){this.stopDrag();mc2.stopDr ag();}
But this seems to drag only the object, corresponding to the last parameter in the function
How shall I drag more than one object at a time?
I have need to simultaneously move a slider (called "shadeGrabber") movie clip and a mask. I'd like to do this by dragging the slider and seeing the mask move with it.
The example movie clip on the left (called "PICTURE_WIPE") is what I'm going for, but interactive instead. I'm working in the movie clip on the right (called "PICTURE_WIPE copy 2")
Here's my code, for quick reference (found on the "AS" in the "PICTURE_WIPE copy 2" movie clip:

When you drag the edge of container with mouse ,how to implement changing the size of container?
View 1 RepliesI've been searching various sites and forums for a solution to this, but have so far found none, so I was hoping to ask for some advice on the subject.Basically I have a movieclip of a photoframe, and I'd like it so when the user clicks the edge of the frame, they can drag it around, while clicking the photo inside the frame will open a new window and show the photo in full view.Originally I thought I could accomplish this simply by using:(Note: Framemc is the main movieclip, with another mc called "Photo" inside which is the picture)[code]But this leads to an odd problem: When dragging the frame it works fine, but the user can also drag the "photomc" around too (like, the frame stays in place and doesnt move with it), thus removing it from the frame.Is there a way to tell the code to move only certain parts of the mc and not others?
View 1 RepliesI just wanted to know if there is a way to startdrag() multiple objects at once. I don't want to use the mousemove/enterframe + x And y offset method of dragging, but just use the built-in startdrag method. Making startdrag function multiple times with different objects didn't work.
View 3 Repliesi want to drag objects using startDrag() method only one direction either X or Y .
View 1 RepliesI have two drag-related questions. The first one is how to rotate an object by clicking and holding on it, then moving the mouse round in circles. Think of a clock face, and the user clicking and holding on one of the hands, then spinning it around. The centre point would be the part of the hand that's attached to the middle of the clock face, and the other end of the hand would be able to rotate 360 degrees around the face.
The second one (and not related to the first one, a separate query altogether) is how to drag something horizontally along the screen, but have it stuck at a certain speed. So if the user tries to quickly drag the clip from left to right, it will not reach the right instantly, but instead follow the cursor at a slow speed.
I have an extremely simple fla, that I wanted to add one thing to, but can't get it to work right. There are 5 layers, each one has 1 key frame and that's it.
1. "Actions" Layer
Code:
startDrag("mask", true);

I'm making a Matching Game where I have some images on my left and I can drag them onto images on my right and if they are matching, they should both disappear from the stage.
[Code]....
findMatch() is a function that finds in my XML file the path of the file that matches the file that is being dragged. Having that path, I send it to dragEnterHandler where it compares it with the path of the dropTarget file and if they are the same, it accepts it. Then in dragDropHandler, I'm changing the source path of my second image to "", so that it disappears from the stage. How can I access the first file (the one that was being dragged), so that I can change its path to "", to get rid of it?
I have for a long time tried to get rods beeing placed side by side without overlapping after dragging. I don't succeed. This side shows that it can work: [URL]. I want my objects beeing placed side by side or over each other, not overlapping and no space between, just like in thos link.

I have several shapes on the screen implemented as movieclips.I need to allow the user to drug the objects with the mouse as well as to resize them (i.e. to change objects' _xscale and _yscale)To do every one of these tasks (drug, blow up and blow down) separately is a trivial task.

How do i create mutiple drop areas for the words and meanings?

is it possible for flash to detect off-stage mouse coordinates in order to continuously drag an object within its bounds while the mouse is moving outside of the stage? for example: i have a draggable red square on my stage. the stage is the bounds of the drag. if i drag the red square to the bottom of the stage and continue to drag outside of and around the stage, i'd like the red square to continue moving within it's bounds, following the mouse coordinates. currently, dragging halts as soon as i leave the stage and the red square only begins to move with the mouse coordinates if i reenter the stage bounds.
View 2 RepliesI am having trouble in dragging a image within a loader. I am able to do zooming and rotating image but not moving image with mouse. Purpose is when I zoom a image info is out of boundaries and so is hidden. To see that info users should be able to drag the image any way they want.
View 1 RepliesI have been working on this project. I am pretty new to flash but developing a map application with pan and zoom. I decided to improve it slightly by adding in mouse functionality. I have the mouse wheel controlling zoom, and I understand the object.startdrag and stopstopdrag and how to make it work. How ever it moves the entire object, which meeses up the built in buttons that pan around the map.I am wondering if any of the flash gurus on this site would venture a guess for a solution to making mouse down add a pan function similar to the way button clicks work.[code]
