Simple Drag / Drop in flash

Multi Level Dropdowns in NewForm

Step 1: Create one MovieClip

Step 2: Paste some random image in to the movieclip

Step 3: Go back to scene1 and drag Hand Movie from library and give instance
name to this movie clip (Best practice, in AS3 instance name should be different
from movieclip name)

 –

Step4: Actionscript code (When user mouse downs on the movieclip , startDrag
function needs to be initiated. Once mouse up, stop drag function needs to be
called)

AS3 HandIns.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,startDragFunction) HandIns.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,stopDragFunction) function startDragFunction(e:Event):void { e.target.startDrag(); } function stopDragFunction(e:Event):void { e.target.stopDrag(); } AS2 HandIns.onPress=startDragFunction   //On Press is equivalent to mouse down HandIns.onRelease=stopDragFunction // on Release is equivalent to mouse up function startDragFunction() { this.startDrag(); } function stopDragFunction() { this.stopDrag(); }
