I'm looking at how to read a file in flash 10 here:URL...is there a way to initiate the file read from a drag and drop? For example, the user drags and drops a text file onto my flash element in the browser - can I initiate the file read from that?
View 1 RepliesI'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 have the drag and drop thing working but when I click on the object the action occurs even though the instance hasn't been dragged?

I need to be able to have a user drag multiple images from the locate file system onto the flash/flex/html5 app which will then taker the file name details and contact the server.Upon server response then upload the file ( assuming server validation passed ).I know this can be done in Java but that is not an option.Please do not suggest the FileReference.browse function as the retouchers are to stupid(no joke here) to use this and it has to be drag and drop.This has to work with all current versions of the popular browsers( hrome,FireFox,IE,Safari)What it comes down to is I want to put an image up on the web page stating drop here and allow them to upload the file(s) by dropping on it.
View 3 RepliesIs it possible to drag a file (on the desktop) onto a flash swf or exe file and have Flash open and know what that file is and possibly perform some action on that?Or hints as to where to begin to look for the actionscript functions for that if it might be possible?
View 2 RepliesSo I made a variety of drag and drop flash files that involved dragging 4 symbols over targets. This works very well, but sometimes it will mess up and when you drag it to the incorrect spot it will go to another one of the starting location's instead of returning to its original one

Flash is completely the wrong app for this, but I don't have access to anything else.I need to parse through a set of files and do some regular expression work on them.Is there a way to drag and drop the text files to do the work on via CS4/AS3? The filenames will always be different, so I can't just hard code that info.
View 2 RepliesI'm not an expert in actionscript but I know a thing or two, but basically I've been given a task in a new web-based piece of software whereby users can drag and drop objects onto a background bitmap. The amount of objects and the co-ordinates of each object will then need to be saved for each user, so when they log back in (regardless of what machine they are using, they'll see where they have left off.)I've seen mentions of using the shared object, but this won't do as the user will not always be using the same machine.
View 1 RepliesHow do I set up my drag and drop questionaire to export to a XML file?
I have a 70 seperate SWF files that pose a question and contain a drag and drop rank order response of 1,2,3,4.How do I set up a XML file that receives the responses.I don't understand how to do the Actionscript and get my responses to connect to the XML.
[Code]...
A friend of mine has a Flash Action script running on a LAMP server that currently reads an xml config file. He's asked me if it's possible to remove the xml file, and replace it somehow with a system (lets call it an 'auto xml generator') that intercepts the request to read that file and generates an output, so it appears to all intents and purposes as if the file still exists and contains the contents that has actually been returned from our auto xml generator'
View 3 RepliesI'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 1 RepliesI 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.

I want to imitate the iPhone scroll behavior in a Flash app I am developing. The idea is to enable drag-drop with a certain amount of inertia/deceleration (you know, when you drop something while your cursor is still moving and the thing would continue moving for a moment and then stop).

E.g. star shape needs to be placed in the star shaped hole.

I'm new to CS5 and AS3, I'm creating an educational game for a project and have used the code snippets (with minor tweeking) to create a drag and drop question where the user has to drag a shape to the right amount of corners. (The game is for 4-7 year olds)I've got all of the drag and drop to work, however I am struggling with a way to use a submit button to lead the user to a seperate page (frame) that will give them feedback.
