View 1 RepliesHow can i implement drag drop functionality in Component 1 Flex grid. Also the grid should allow some functionalities related to dragged data like Allow deletion of dragged data in cells of Grid.Dragged item remains in original cell as well and in the cell where it is dragged to.If the original item is deleted, the dragged item also gets deleted.Grid should not allow data to be duplicated in same column.how is it possible in flex grid. It is a windows based application. So if any possibility of doing the same using windows application basic functionality.
View 1 Repliesi am designing a program using drag and drop functionality.i created three movie clips i.e circle_mc ,square_mc and triangle_mc.here circle is source and square is target if "circle_mc" is dragged and dropped on the "square_mc" then the "triangle_mc" should rotate 90degrees(clock wise). and if the "circle_mc" is removed from "square_mc" then the triangle should rotate 90degrees(anti clock wise).
View 4 RepliesEverything seems to work correctly locally, until I upload it to the test server. The SWF will connect to the database, but it won't load the images, and the drag and drop functionality messed up.
View 2 RepliesThe searches that I did on this topic aren't providing me with any answers...that I can understand anyway. =*) Here's the situation.In the past, I did computer-based-training using "a different authoring tool." One thing I discovered I could do with that tool--which really opened up new possibilities for me--was to use that scripting language to create a snapshot of the current window and save that image as an object/class. Then I could access that object, resize it, save it to disk, and load it in later. The result--for my training at least--was a visual bookmark of their location in the training should they have to save and come back later.I would now like to do this with Flash.specificially CS4 and AS3.If anyone can point me in the right location to get started,For clarity, the steps are:
1: Take a snapshot of the current Flash window / Stage. I'm not concerned if the snapshot remains "in Flash" or goes to the Clipboard as long as I can get to it in the next step.
2: Access that snapshot from where-ever it's stored.
3: Process the snapshot and reduce it to a thumbnail, etc.
4: Save it to a file that I can bring back into the .swf at a later point. I'm not real concerned about the format of the file as long as I can bring it back in later. How do I save it? I would love to be able to save it to the user's machine but last I checked
Flash won't do that sort of thing. Can I save it as a file on the server that the .swf is running from using perhaps a PHP call /script / page?
5: And, of course, recall the image to be used at a later point. I already have a pretty good handle on this from past experiments.
When I take a screenshot using Selenium Firefox Webdriver (yes, Firefox has flash plugin) it doesn't show the flash object. It shows merely a white box instead. Is there something I must do / install?
I'm using this code:
from selenium import webdriver
def webshot(url, filename):
browser = webdriver.Firefox()
browser.get(url)
browser.save_screenshot(filename)
browser.quit()
Is there a way to take a "screenshot" of what is currently being displayed on the stage? Or even better, a part of the stage? Don't get me wrong- I know how to take a screenshot *myself*. What I want is to have an option within the *SWF* to generate a file (jpg, png or gif are all fine) of what the current stage looks like.
It sounds like a fairly easy idea / request but I have no clue how this would be done... It's for a shop (idea) where people can patch together their own design to be printed... but in order to do that, I would have to be able to generate an image of the completed design.? Am I missing something that's already integrated in Flash?
I created a graphic to simulate a volume slider. Its working, but i want a movieclip graphic (vol_switch) to follow the mask. It is only following it after i release the mouse. i cannot figure out how to have it follow on the mouse drag without taking precedence over the mask and disabling that. I tried the code in bold, but not working.

I'm trying to make a simulation where a person can drag 2 different objects to any 4 predefined targets on the stage. Based on the position of the 2 objects there will be a different output text. I hope I described that clearly. I would also like the 2 objects to snap to the 4 targets. Im very new to AS. Im starting to be able to read it a bit but still can not wright it.

View 3 RepliesIm trying to do a drag and drop system where the user can drag a movie clip into an area. Although i would like to make it snap to a target instead of just sitting wherever it lands in the area. Problem Two:
The next thing i am trying to do is when the user has a movie clip on a target already, and trys to put another movie clip in that target area, it will replace the one thats in there and go back to its current position. Here is the script of what i have done so far:

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to create a navigation system that relies on the user dragging on a wheel in order to rotate it into a specific position: [URL]. The problem I have is that whenever a drag is initiated, the wheel jumps to a position where it points the zero-rotation point (indicated in the example by the red dashline) at the mouse direction. Whenever the drag is ended, the wheel stays at the position where the mouse has left it, which is correct.
However, when another drag is initiated, the same thing reoccurs - the dashed red line jumps to point towards the direction of the mouse. In short, I need the wheel to drag/rotate directly from the position where it was previously left or where it is by default. It shouldn't matter from which position the user drags the wheel. The code is located in the script of the wheel-movieClip, and is as follows:
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame){
this.onPress = function(){
// when the mouse presses on the wheel
this.onMouseMove = function(){
// get an angle to the mouse using atan2 (gets radians)
var angle = Math.atan2(this._parent._ymouse-this._y,this._parent._xmouse-this._x);

I can see how lacking the code is, and I can see why it does what it does. I just can't figure out how to implement it so that the wheel rotation is independent from the position of mouse, while it is dragged.
I have added drag and drop to some of my custom components.The drag event is fired on mouse down.If you mouse down and move the component around then drop it repeatedly its fine.But if you mousedown and drag the component around drop it and THEN just click on the component it inits the drag but doesn't fire the drop event.Its almost like you have to move the component for it to fire the drag drop event.This is very annoying as i'm removing the component on drag init and adding it again on drop, so just clicking on it makes it disappear.

View 3 RepliesI am developing a simple drag and drop game..except my draggable items are in a movie clip and my targets are also in a movie clip.

View 1 RepliesBasically, there will be two images, which participants are to choose between. Below the pairs of images will be a horizontal bar with arrows at both opposite ends. I would like the participant to be able to drag and drop a small rectangle somewhere along the bar to represent their choice (and the degree of their endorsement).Basically, I'm asking how to make an interactive scrollbar on its side (without buttons, just the drag). I would also like it to start in the middle of the bar and be able to be moved in either direction.
View 2 Repliesusing 'drag and drop' in flash without overlapping?
For example - I have a list of buttons i drag to an area on the stage. I do not want my buttons to overlap.
I've dynamically created a bunch of MCs from a single MC in the library.
Inside the MC's timeline, I have written drag and drop code.
The MC's reside in a parent movieclip, that then resides in a scrollpane.
I was wondering if it's possible to write AS3 to drag the clips into another movieclip?
If not the way I have it, is it possible at all to drag MC's from one container MC to another?
I am trying to do a flex drag and drop. It is very similar to this first example.url....The problem is that event.currentTarget.mouseX,mouseY is showing the position where I put the mouse down rather than the position where I had finished dragging.
