Flex :: How To Restrict Drag And Drop Area In Canvas
Apr 19, 2011
I have a canvas,lets say of dimensions 500x600. I have some controls inside that canvas.User can rearrange the controls by drag and drop. But I want to restrict the drag and drop within that canvas. For example: There is a button in the canvas. User can drag and drop the button anywhere inside the canvas.But if the user tries to drag the button out of the canvas boundaries, it should stick in the canvas boundary. How to achieve this?

I'm doing an application in flex where I draw different sprites inside a canvas. Depending of the dimensions, scrollbars can be appear. I would like to move the "image" with the movement of the mouse as you can see at the Adobe Reader when you are reading a document with zoom (hand mouse icon). In this way, you dont have to touch the scrollbar.I'm start trying with drag and drop properties of the canvas, setting the position of the scrollbar according with the movement of the mouse but that is not as I expect.

I just started using Flash Builder 4 (yesterday infact).
I have two lists and a canvas. When dropping a list item onto the canvas, i want to trace what item it is (the label and data) and which list it came from. From there, i want to add an image to the canvas according to the dropped item.
Here's my current code
private function componentDragEnterHandler(event:DragEvent):void {
DragManager.acceptDragDrop(Canvas(event.currentTarget));
DragManager.showFeedback( DragManager.COPY );
}

Im 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:

I'm new to flash and I am just trying to create a draggable object. Easy right? Sure looks like it should be simple.
So I do this:
on (press) {
startDrag (this);
}on (release, releaseOutside) {
stopDrag ();
}
Then I do Test Movie and when I click and drag, the ENTIRE CANVAS drags. The object I set the action for AND every other object on the canvas moves.

I'm looking for a software package that implements a drag and drop plan of a restaurant's floor plan. Any technology silverlight/html5/flash is acceptable.
Perhaps there is even a tutorial on how to develop a simple example of this.
Essentially I need different shaped tables which can be selected from a shapes panel that can then be dragged onto the canvas and moved around to match the current floor plan of a restaurant.

if 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 20 squares, each one has a different number(1, 2, 3, etc.) The number is in a dynamic text box which is centered above the square( the square is a Sprite object called "MySquare".) I would like to make the squares drag and droppable. When I test the movie, the arrow cursor becomes a vertical line when over the number. I can click on the edge of the square but then the cursor automatically goes to the center and the compiler returns the error: property StopDrag not found on flash.text.textField.
Here is ActionScript Code:
var startX:Number;
var startY:Number;
var m1:MySquare = new MySquare();
m1.theText.text="1";
addChild(m1);

I am trying to create an application for students to visualize their course schedules.I have rectangles representing each class, which students can drag and drop to build their schedule.I would like the students to be able to type in the course number and name before adding it to the schedule.I have the drag-and-drop working, and editable text working. owever, when I try to edit the text, it drags the box as well.Therefore, I would like to be able to limit the "drag" functionality to one corner of the rectangle.So the user would have to click that part in order to drag the movie clip. Please see the attached image to get a better idea of what I'm talking about.

This animation is for a kindergarten course. I have 6 different colored teddy bears on the
floor and the bears are to be placed on the middle shelf in the room, in no particular order. I have the code in place to drag the bears, and they return to their original location if dropped in the wrong area. Everything works, except I can't make the bears stick to the target area. The target area has to be the same for all 6 bears.

In my flex application I need to restrict the mouse from moving in a certain area.In other words I want to create a 'No Entry Zone' for the mouse in the application.Hiding the cursor when mouse enters the area is not a solution for me.

I want to make a "canvas" and add mc's to it to create a piece of "art". I'll want to be able to change stacking order and manipulate each mc once they're added to the display list of the "canvas."
Right now I have a movie clip called c1 (which is my canvas) and I want to drag and drop other mc's onto it. There will be other stuff on the stage so the canvas won't take up the entire stage.
Here's my code:
c1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, dragIt); c1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);c1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, selectIt);

I'm developing a web app using Flex. This app allows to draw forms in a Canvas (like MSPaint in Windows).Now, I want a new feature on it: an infinite canvas. The user should be able to drag the main Canvas and this should be infinite in X and Y axis. Consecuently, this Canvas should be resized in real time.
Obviously, I don't want to create a Canvas of 1k x 1k pixels with zoom in an specific area to give the feeling of an infinite drawing area.
EDIT:I just read that Flash/Flex Flash/Air supports canvases up to 4056x4056 px, not infinite.

i have a drop down menu am working on and each button tab (although they are not button instances !) when clicked opens up the "drop down" section which you can mouse over to choose another specific button etc - if you mouse out of that drop down area then it pulls back up to the original tab state .. what do i change to the code below to decrease the area that you mouse out of to make the drop down area pull back .....at the moment it at least two inches on the screen below and to the right of boundaries of the drop down box before it pulls up - i want to it pull up as the mouse leaves the boundary box .... hope this makes sense .... there is some part of the actionscipt below that controls this but can work out which bit and how to change it !!! (am guessing the x mouse and y mouse bits - but how to change it ???)

I have need to restrict user input. TextInput should restrict all special characters and punctuation. Any other characters are allowed. In java there is a regex patter:
replaceAll("\p{Punct}", "_")
Is there something similar in actionscript?

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.

I am building a flex project involving drag+drop of fxg graphics. My graphic is instantiated as below:
<graphics:arrow2 id="object" mouseMove="mouseMoveHandler(event);" />
I get an error: "Call to a possibly undefined method Graphic."
This works if I change my drag-object to Image and replace the 'Graphic' below with 'Image'. What should I use to be able to reference the fxg graphic in the drag-drop? My drag drop functionality is as follows
private function mouseMoveHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
var dragInitiator:Graphic = Graphic(event.currentTarget);
var ds:DragSource = new DragSource();
ds.addData(dragInitiator,"gph");
DragManager.doDrag(dragInitiator, ds, event);
