Actionscript 3 :: Detect A Click On A Drag And Drop Object?
Nov 5, 2010
I'm building a flash app that has some draggable buttons on it and I want them to behave like this:
You click on it, ClickEvent1 happens, You click and hold on the button, you can move it. If you release from the hold, it does NOT trigger the ClickEvent
I'm running into the logic problem of not knowing whether a user is just clicking or starting a drag event. Does anyone know any logic to get around this issue? I have thought of alternatives such as placing regions of the button that are only draggable or only clickable, but I've seen this type of functionality in other flash apps and I'm wondering how it is accomplished.

How do can you detect and dispatch an event when a drag and drop operation ends prematurely? I need to know that the user is no longer dragging an item. Even if the dragDrop and dragComplete events do no fire. Its almost as if I need to add an event listener to the dragManager, but that's not really possible..

After I drag and drop a label(or other UIComponent) in a container, i want to double click the label to show me an alert. well it doesn't work.
i've tried in the dragCompleteHandler to put event.dragIntiator.addEventListener or event.currentTargetaddEventListner but it doesn't work. Also i enabled the DoubleClickEnabler and still nothing?

In Flex 3, I have an ItemRenderer that has a button in it. I want users to be able to click and drag this Renderer, but also just click the button. Right now it's working with the Renderer listening on "MouseMove" to initiate drag and drop, and the button listening on "click". However this is very screwy. If somebody is dragging a scroll bar and comes anywhere near that renderer, MouseMove gets fired on the renderer and initiates dragging.
(or if somebody is resizing a HDividedBox, basically if someone initiated a click anywhere in the app and rolls over this renderer, we get unwanted dragging. The alternative is listening on MouseDown instead of MouseMove, which fixes the previous issue, however the nested button loses it's click. I can click on the button, but the renderer just thinks it's time to Drag.

I'm really new to AS3 and could use some help. I have a movieClip with a drag and drop functionality that's working fine but then inside this movieClip is a dynamic text field and it won't let me click over the text field to start dragging and if I click off to the side I can drag but the movieClip is automatically centered and then I can't drop because now the text field is under the mouse and it keeps saying:
ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property stopDrag not found on flash.text.TextField and there is no default value. at MethodInfo-10()
Why is AS3 so finicky? I'm clicking on the MC for the love of $(*%@ not the text field. Errr..

Would like to develop simple (in browser) puzzle games where shapes (such as a puzzle piece shape) can be simultaneously dragged and rotated, then dropped on the screen or canvas. The game mode would be to click and drag the shape or object, while simultaneously rotating the piece using arrow keys Is this possible in Flash? This simple general activity of simultaneous drag and rotate, then drop, is my intended overallweb site game basis. I'm new to Flash but have developed Windows executables for many years. I'm trying to decide whether to purchase and learn Flash as platform for interactive educational puzzle games running in browser windows.

I am trying to drag and drop an object across the SkinnableContainer- am coming across a very strange issue
The drop occurs only at a few places- elsewhere it just shows the "X" sign and on dropping there, reverts to original position. I have used very standard commands... from function 2 to function 3, the call occurs very rarely as seen in trace statements- any guidance on why this happens?
I added the following code to SkinnableContainer: dragEnter="dragEnterHandler(event);" dragDrop="dragDropHandler(event);
(1):
private function mouseMoveHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
var dragInitiator:Image = Image(event.currentTarget);
var ds:DragSource = new DragSource();

I am going to have what is essentially a grid of 12 boxes. 4 across 3 high. There will be an object in each box. What I want to do is to allow the user to drag an object from one box into another. This will cause the other objects in the boxes to move up one position to fill in the gap that is left by the object being dragged. I have no idea what this is called or so I don't know how to Google it. Does anybody know if there are any tutorials on how I can get this done?

I'm creating an application where the user can select an object from a list of objects, and then put it on the main window.
I want to have the list of objects presented like in the web app : [URL]
The user can select a category, then the list of objects of that category is displayed, then he can drag and drop an object to the main window.
How is it possible to do this, having a list of objects?

I need to rotate a drag and drop object 360 degrees. I've got the drag and drop working fine, but I could only figure out how to rotate it 4 times using the set property and arrow keys on the key board. Is there another action I can use to rotate it 8 times at 45 degree angles, or will I have to use the go to action and make 8 frames for the object? I would like to be able to rotate it by pressing just one key on the key board.

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.
