i am making a drag and drop jukebox that will play an xml playlist when an icon is dropped onto it's target.i have one xml playlist working, but i need to make a button that will reset all the movie clips to their original position when a playlist has been played.
View 3 RepliesI have a list with itemrenderer with dragEnabled true and dropEnabled true. Now, I am trying to tell flex not to let the dragged item (even the icon indication) leave the drop panel. I don;t care if it stop the dragging or just freezes it as if it was the application border - and I cannot. I tried to stop the dragging on dragExit handler but it seems to ignore it. Does anyone know of a working mechanism to do such? (Flex 4)

View 0 RepliesJust trying to add a little more functionality to this code for a drag and drop interaction. Suppose I have multiple objects to drag and some will have the same target. Right now (with this code), the draggable object gets positioned in the center of it's target so my draggalbe movieclips will overlap eachother once they're dropped on the correct target.
What I'd like to do is prevent this overlapping and have the movieclips slightly offset on the y axis so they cascade a bit. Could do this by writing out alot of code for the individual movieclips but i'd like to condense it a bit.
Code:
function dragSetup(clip, targ) {
clip.onPress = function() {
startDrag(this);
[Code].....
I have an if like this:
on (release) {
stopDrag ();
if (_root.go_blue._droptarget == "/g_target")[code]...
This works. I need to add "if (test = "one")", another drop sets this variable and the drop above should test for it. But I can't get the basics right! I'm a programmer who is new to Actionscript. What I want is:
"If the variable is correct AND if it is dropped on the target (g_target) THEN play the movie, ELSE go back to _x=130, _y=300."
The variable is being assigned correctly, I tested it with a Dynamic text box. The movie isn't running with my code!
I am struggling to make drag and drop playlist. User can drag boxes (which refers to swf or movie files) to a drop area to make a playlist and when press to play button it must show files in that playlist order.

I am dragging item from a datagrid and while dragging I could see all of the columns in the selected record, being getting dragged. However I only want to show one column (maybe name or id of the record)? Is there a way to achieve this? Also, could I show an icon or image instead of the record while dragging.

View 1 RepliesI am using drag and drop functionality, with duplicateMovie clips. Everything is working great. However, I'm trying to create a little more functionality. Say someone drags an icon onto the artwork, once they have it positioned, they decide that they don't want to use that particular icon. Is there a way to just delete the icon that was dragged?
View 0 RepliesSimple drag and drop application where mc is dragged out of one parent mc and dropped into another parent mc.All works OK until I added 2 text boxes to the mc's -- one is a non-selectable dynamic text box (a label) which is set by the code, the other is selectable input text that the user can amend.
Finger cursor disappears when user hovers over the section of the mc that contains the text fields (even non-selectable text??) When the user trys to drag the mc by inadvertantly click-dragging anywhere within both text areas it causes this error: TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.text::TextField@2374a381 to flash.display. MovieClip (same error appears for both text boxes)
The input text box may confuse the user - how do they sometimes click to drag and sometimes click to amend? I need to create an overlay area within the mc that is click-detected for the drag? Here's the relevant bits of code:
var itemArray:Array = [
{iname:"police",ititle:"POLICE OFFICER"},
{iname:"insurance_assessor",ititle:"INSURANCE ASSESSOR"},[code].............
3 circles which can be dragged over a target (one for each circle)When the circle is placed on its target it loads its respective xml playlist into 4 buttons (play, pause, forward, back)I want to be able to create some kind of function to control the volume, either using a slider or a rotary dial, whichever is easiest!

I have 4 items and 4 target zones in which the items can be dropped. I want to be able to drop several items on the same target.However, I've noticed that the space occupied by one item "covers" part of the drop target. As a result, I have to drop the next item next to the previous one. I'm wondering why each item I drop on a target zone covers the space of the target zone it occupies, and how I could avoid this. Here's part of my code (see dropit function)[code]...

View 1 RepliesI want to be able to create the following if possible:
Create five words that make up a sentence and they are mixed up in order. So basically I would turn each word into a Movie clip perhaps.
I would then like to assign a target hotspot for each word so that a user can drag the words into the correct order.
Once they are in the correct order they click a button to go to a correct response or incorrect response. Is this possible?
My question is simple. Let's say I have 2 List Controls. 1 of Users and 1 of Tickets. (The 2 Sources). And I have a DataGrid (the target). Is possible to select 1 user and 1 ticket in the 2 list mentioned before and drag & drop them at the same time to the DataGrid? I know it's not as simple as they are going to get automatically mixed.. If it is possible... I would have to use the DragEnter Event of the Datagrid or something to mix them and create my dataProvider. But I don't know how you can drag & drop 2 items at the same time from different sources. It is possible with one source.. But no idea of how to do it with 2 sources.

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'm migrating from as2 to as3 and have a problem. I have a movieclip called papel_ilus which has loaded images inside with text and stuff. I found a Drag And Drop code that constrains the movement of the _x axis and have targeted the papel_ilus movieclip. However, when I click the images inside they are dragged separately from the whole movieclip I targeted and everything is a mess. Is there a way to drag the whole "pack" as one?

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?
View 4 Repliesif this is posted elsewhere I searched but could not find topic. I would like to know if there is a way to enlarge the size of the target drop point. Seems the users have to be spot on or the shape snaps back.
Any way to give users a little more wiggle room with target drops?
I have been trying forever to figure out how to add multiple mc's (images) with different instance names to 1 target only (another image). All of the mc's and the target are placed on the same layer.

I've been going through some tutorials and samples of "drag and drop" flash movies and I always come upon the same bug. The drop target gets "stuck" to the mouse, and when I click the target it just drops down and doesn't return to its orig. position.

I have been working with a very simple tutorial over at [URL], where you drag objects onto a target movieClip. My question is this, how do you target a movieClip inside a movie clip? What I have are 4 color squares that I want to drag and drop onto a pattern_mc. I put the target mc's with in the pattern_mc. In the tutorial the target mc's are not in a movie clip. I put my target mc's in a movieClip because I want to use the pattern_mc as a material, and I thought this was the correct way to this.
Code:
//record objects starting position
var startX:Number;
var startY:Number;
//activate objects to be moved
square1mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
square1mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);

I would imagine it's a simple enough bit of additional code, but I'm no programmer, and trawling the Web has proved fruitless to date...ithin Flash CS5 and using AS 3, I'm attempting to create a series of drag-and-drop interactions for a learning exercise where items must be dragged into the correct box with positive and negative feedback being generated as a result of where the learner drops the item.
