I'm trying to drag multiple MC's around with the normal metod:
function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
event.target.startDrag(false);
}[code]....
But it only works on the MC first added (addChild).. Actually it feels like there's pice of glass between the first added MC's and the ones "underneath".
i want to create a global function in actionscript 3.0 i can do this in flash as2 As3 remove that _global. if i want to create a _global function then want to create a static metod in another class file...?

I'm Trying to develop a small game where the user chooses from a range of boxes of the left of screen and can drag 3 of them separatley to 3 holding boxes on ther right. each box can be dragged to any location and the order is not important. Once the 3 holding boxes are all full I want a new button to appear. I completed a tutorial and I've got one box working perfectly but no matter what i try I can't get it working with multiple boxes and locations. Below is a list of the instance names of the movie clips plus my actionscript. I've attached a link to the flash file.

INSTANCE NAMES
box 1 = "circle_mc"
box 2 = "circle_mc2"
both the grey boxes are called = "targetCircle"

im creating a small drag and drop game in AS3-
I have 4 objects and 4 targets,
I want to be able to drag any of the 4 objects onto any of the targets, right now all I can manage is to allow each object drop onto one specific target only.
I thought by calling all my target names by the same instance name eg target_mc that would work but only one target will ever work.
I'm making a Multiple Drag and Drop in Multiple Targets educational puzzle for 6-7 y/o kids that tries to teach them a bit about which plants grow in which environments in the country. So, I have a map of Mexico divided in 3 diferent zones: desert, forest and tropic, and 6 different plants (of 3 different groups: cacti, pines and tropical flowers, 2 of each) scattered across the stage and around the map. The goal is for the kids to drop the plants in the right zone and then to click a "verify" button that triggers a validation process. Each of the plant's movie clip has 2 frames with a stop(); action on each: the plant graphic spans across both frames and the second frame has a red error sign over the graphic that indicates an error has occured (if that's the case). Then the validation process triggered by the "verify" button is supposed to move the playhead of each wrongly placed plant move clip to the second frame to show which plants are misplaced and move the main timeline's playhead to a frame that contains a "Please try again" text and a "Restart Puzzle" button. If all the answers are right, an animation plays saying that it was VERY WELL DONE! .
I searched the internet for some tutorials and found a file that is pretty close to what I need. I've tried to adapt the code to my puzzle but have failed miserably. The file is here if you want to check it out (scroll to the bottom of the page, it's called Soldier.fla). I'm not pasting the code here because it's VERY long, but I will if required. If you want me to upload the files somewhere else and link them here, I will. If you need me to send them to you I'll be glad.
I want to make an animation like this: when i drag "mc1" in the same time drag "mc2" what is the code for this?
View 3 Repliesscript that would allow the user to clikc and drag mulitple symbols- similar to this:
on (press) { startDrag (this._parent, false);}
on (release) { stopDrag ()}Only that instead of using "this", it drags the following symbols on mouse click:

Im using the code below to stop a page being moved past certain points when at 25% zoom on my page. This works perfectly however I have 50%, 75% and 100% zoom aswell. How would I alter this code so the drag limits can be different for each level of zoom.The code im using just now is:
pages.onMouseDown = function () {
// check if page is zoomed
if (pages._xscale != 25) {

I am trying to create a drag and throw effect I have most of the effect working correctly but I am wondering how to only move one item at a time and have that thrown unaffected til the friction brings the item to a stop. what happens currently is if an mc is moving and you select another it moves both items.
Code:
var mx0; // Previous Mouse X Position
var my0; // Previous Mouse Y Position
var velocityX = 0; // Velocity in X Direction[code]...................
I have created a simple drag and drop game with 4 signs to be dragged onto 4 targets. As two of the answers are the same I need to be able to have the possibility of both signs to be dragged onto either target.

I have to incorperate flash animations aswel. Im just wondering about a drag and drop function. I have a fair idea how to do a basic drag and drop function.
Message_MC.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,dragPoly);Message_MC.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,dropPoly);
function dragPoly(e:MouseEvent):void{ Message_MC.startDrag(); }function dropPoly(e:MouseEvent):void{ Message_MC.stopDrag(); }
I want to be able to drag multiple objects at the same time and also play a sound.is this possible?
if(Message_mc is clicked and dragged){
then drag Encryption_mc and Decryption_mc
also play ("Song.mp3")
}
Im trying to create a simple drag and drop app where you can drap a movieclip into multiple areas.This is the code i have so far (taken from a tutorial i found) thats works perfectly for 1 target but not for multiples. I initially tried giving the targets the same instance name but that didnt work.
stop();var startX:Number;var startY:Number;
square_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);square_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
function pickUp(event:MouseEvent):void { square_mc.gotoAndStop (2); event.target.startDrag(true);

Is there a way to make an item, which can be draged onto the stage mulitple times? Like in making beats in music apps. You select a sample and drag it into the stage.
View 1 Repliesseen a few different as 2.0 code for a drag and drop, doesn't have the smoothness of as 3. Anyone have a link to drag and drop multiple movieclips, no target necessary. Just a smooth drag and drop.
View 3 RepliesI'm having a problem find a solution to my drag and drop problem. Here is what this flash piece is basically supposed to do: 9 dragable items on the stage5 targets, numbers 1 - 5, where the items can be placed5 of the 9 dragable items are the correct answer and the user needs to drag them to the correct target, and have to be in order from 1-5. (eg. let's say the instructions are: Please place the, in the correct order, the 5 steps to getting ready in the morning.
Drag items Targets
Brush teeth 1.
Change oil in car 2.
Wash Face 3.
Put pants on 4.
Shower 5.
Get out of bed
Do tax's
So far I have it so if you drop the correct answer into its correct target it snaps to it and disable it's eventListeners. If you drop the drag item on the other targets they snap to it and disable it as well. They only problem is if the user accidentally drops the item anywheres else on the stage it locks it in place. Instead I want it to return to the original x and y position.
Here is my code
DragDrop.as
package{ import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.filters.DropShadowFilter;
public class DragDrop extends MovieClip {
public var _targetPiece:*;
public function DragDrop() {

I have 3 movieclips each containing an audio. These will be dragged and dropped on stage.However I need to be able to click a MC and have it "copy", or whatever, it self to be dragged so I can drag n' drop a mc multiple times.So for instance lets say I have 3 movieclips a_mc, b_mc and c_mc, on stage.In the area I want to drop them lets say I want to do thisa_mc, a_mc, c_mc, -or- b_mc,c_mc,c_mc etc... but still leaving a_mc, b_mc and c_mc in there original area.
View 4 RepliesWhen you make this draggable and droppable, the object automatically jumps to the cursor of the mouse, but at the location set at (0, 0)? Well, is there a way to counteract this, so if the mouse is over it and you click it you can still move it but the object will stay where it is relative to the mouse cursor? I'm using ActionScript 3.0 with Flash CS5
View 6 RepliesI'm using the script "drag & drop multiple targets", with the swapDepth enabled, making the last clicked item to come in front of all the clips on the board.So far, so good. But I have some of the draggers made up by small circles, stacked/glued together vertically (7 in a row) which make these new draggers taller than the majority. The problem is that when I try to drag and snap them, the bottom circle doesn't center into the middle of the dropping zone like the others. These new draggers center themselves with their vertical center into the center of the dragging zones.
I really need to have all these taller draggers centered themselves with the bottom cercle into the middle of the dropping targets, like the simple draggers made up by a single circle.Is there a way to work around, applying a rule to the chosen individual objects without specifically applying to the main script? I mean when you drop the item, forcing it to snap a little bit higher in relation with Y coordinate of the dropping zones.
ActionScript Code:
function dragSetup(clip, targArray) {
clip.onPress = function() {
startDrag(this); this.swapDepths(_root.getNextHighestDepth());

This is hard to explain, so bear with me... I'm creating "pages" of draggable buttons so that I can reorder them according to their revised positions. Everything works great but I'm stumped as to how to drag the buttons forward or backward a page based on the current active page. If you look at the file you'll see exactly what I mean. I have a portion of the code commented out because that's the area I'm stuck on.
All the MC's are created on the initial load, with each additional page appearing "off the screen" by an adding 1000 pixels per page (in the X direction). Then I just reposition all the MC's as the pages are scrolled through.
What I really want to do is drag a button to the edge of the screen and have all the MC's move that represent the appropriate page. I think I need some sort of timer there or it just flies to the last page.
FYI, if you change the variable "TotalVBs" it will modify the number of displayed buttons. If you change the variable "myButtonScale" it will modify the scale of the buttons. Increasing either or both of these will add more pages to the program. [code]...
I've made a drag and drop quiz where you have to drag the labels to the right placeotherwise they just go back to where they were. That was easy enough. But now the bosses decided that they want it so you can get it wrong as well, which means multiple targets. My poor little brain cannot handle it! I've been looking at changing a variable with the target x and y on mouseover, but that just seems to stop the onRelease function.
View 1 Replies1. Need it to do: when the correct word is placed in the box, it stays there. Currently it disappears. I think this is because we are removing the child, but if we don't remove the child - it stays in all scenes and frames and interferes with being able to drop more words in the target box.
2. If you incorrectly guess, then correctly guess.. the incorrect guess is visible throughout the rest of the scenes and frames (this is a big one, i need this fixed somehow).
3. Not as important, but in order to make this work, I had to go into each scene and make sure all my variables were named differently then the other scenes. There must be a way around this.

1. I created the dropzone script, in which has to be dynamic in size so that people can the tiles to design their floor board. Problem is, if the dropzones are too close to each other, the app has problems deciding where to drop the tile. (the tile floor is diagonal, imagine a diamond looking tile) I dont know what to do in order to securely place tiles where it shuld be... the dropzones are too close to each other..!the tile can either be full tile, 1/2 and 1/4 tile. How do I do this? I managed to get the drag n drop for full tile to work, but I dont know how can I do it with 1/2 or 1/4 tile. Should I split the dropzones into 4 sections? If I did, then I'll have a problem with full tile? For dropping let say, a pyramid-shaped tile onto a Full Tile would be very2 confusing
View 1 RepliesI am wondering how it is possible to simulate the behaviour like in windows, where you drag on the stage and select all the objects (movieclips) in the drag area, so that you can move them?
View 2 RepliesI 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.
For a Majour project school assignment i am trying to create an interactive map for a hypothetical theme park, and i'll cut to the chase, i need a script that allows the player to drag the content of two or three layers around the screen upon mouse click, similar to this example:

I will have a layer for buttons (probably called Buttons) and a layer for the map graphic (Probably called Map), similar to this tutorial:

I'm trying to create an interactive game where multiple movieclips can be dragged onto a single target. I understand that the target and the movie clip have to have the same name, like "book_mc" has to have a target of "targetbook_mc", but is there another way to do this so that "book_mc" and "pencil_mc" can both have the same target?
