multiple draggable item into a single target AS3

Question

Hi,

Im new to AS3 and was wondering if there is anyone out there that can help me with this...

Im creating a drag and drop Flash activity where there is 1 target and multiple draggable items. In my case I have 4 apples and I want to be able to put all apples into the same basket. I can get the draggable item into one target but i cannot get multiple draggable items into one single target...

Here is my code...

import caurina.transitions.*; //import flash.geom.Rectangle;

//var myBoundaries:Rectangle=new Rectangle(68.65,637.8,100,50);

circle1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, drag); circle1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, drop);

function drag(event:MouseEvent):void { //event.target.startDrag(true, myBoundaries); event.target.startDrag(); }

function drop(event:MouseEvent):void { event.target.stopDrag(); var myTargetName:String = "target" + event.target.name; var myTarget:DisplayObject = getChildByName(myTargetName); if(event.target.dropTarget != null && event.target.dropTarget.parent == myTarget){ //trace("hit");

    /*Remove the event listeners when a peg is correctly placed*/
    event.target.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, drag);
    event.target.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, drop);
    event.target.buttonMode = false;

    /*Adjust the peg’s position when it is correctly placed*/
    event.target.x = myTarget.x;
    event.target.y = myTarget.y;

    /*add tween*/
    Tweener.addTween(circle1_mc,{x:68.65,y:637.8,time:1,transition:"easeIn"});
} else {
    //trace("try again");

    /*add tween*/
    Tweener.addTween(circle1_mc,{x:97.9,y:64.95,time:1,transition:"easeIn"});
}

}

circle1_mc.buttonMode = true;

Hope to hear from you soon

Answer 1

Perhaps wrapping the apples in to an appleContainer ( draggableItemContainer? ) then instead of dragging single apples you'll be able to focus on the appleContainer as your target?
