Hi there…

I’ve been decide to go with OOP since on my thought my code will be more managable…and it’s more easier to update later on…but since Im still new with AS3 so really need help and also need some clearify on my pitfall…hope OOP guru’s here can help me out…or at least give me some shed on light…

1ST QUESTIONS
1.enough babbling …my problem is my dragger object still stick to my mouse eventhough on Drop and I already removeEvent for the mouseEvent and also my dragger object dissapear…perplexing and clueless???..url below here are illustrating the problems I’m facing now…u guys can play with it…

http://www.franzacollections.net/fifin04/dragdrop/fla.html

this is the code Im currently using…
in fla…call “fla.fla”


stop();

var dragger:Array = new Array(d_1,d_2,d_3,d_4,d_5,d_6,d_7,d_8,d_9);
var target:Array = new Array(t_1,t_2,t_3,t_4,t_5,t_6,t_7,t_8,t_9);

var gameBegin:Main = new Main(dragger,target);

//document class “Main.as”


package{
    
    import flash.display.Sprite;
    import flash.events.Event;
    import DragDrop;


    public class Main extends Sprite{
        
        private var startGame:DragDrop; 
        public var draggerObj:Array = new Array();
        public var targetObj:Array = new Array();
        
        //constructor for document class
        public function Main(_dragObj:Array,_targetObj:Array){
            draggerObj = _dragObj;
            targetObj = _targetObj;
            startGame = new DragDrop(draggerObj,targetObj);
            startGame.addEventListener("dragEvent", onStartDrag);
            addChild(startGame);
        }
        
        private function onStartDrag(event:Event):void{
            trace ("Dragging status is: " + startGame.onDragStatus);
        }
    }
        
}

and here are my class…“DragDrop.as”


package{
    
    import flash.display.MovieClip;
    import flash.events.Event;
    import flash.events.MouseEvent;
    
    public class DragDrop extends MovieClip{    
        private var len:Number;
        public var dragObj:Array = new Array(); 
        public var targetObj:Array = new Array();
        private var startX:Number;
        private var startY:Number;
        private var _onDrag:Boolean = false;
        //private var startTimer:Timer;
        //constructor
        public function DragDrop(_dragObj:Array,_tarObj:Array){
            dragObj = _dragObj;
            targetObj = _tarObj;
            init();
        }
        
        private function init():void{
            len = dragObj.length;
            for(var i:int=0;i<len;i++){
                dragObj*.id = i;
                dragObj*.buttonMode = true;
                startX = dragObj*.x;
                startY = dragObj*.y;
                dragObj*.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, onDrag);
                dragObj*.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, onDrop);
            }
        }
        
        private function onDrag(event:MouseEvent):void{
            _onDrag = true;
            trace("onDrag true");
            event.target.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, MouseMove);
            event.currentTarget.startDrag();
        }
        
        private function onDrop(event:MouseEvent):void{
            _onDrag = false;
            trace("onDrag false");
            event.target.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, onDrop);
            event.target.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, MouseMove);
            event.currentTarget.stopDrag();
            dispatchEvent(new Event("dragEvent"));
            //////portions checking the right target
            for(var j:int = 0;j<targetObj.length;j++){
                if(event.currentTarget.hitTestObject(targetObj[j])){
                     event.currentTarget.x = targetObj[j].x;
                     event.currentTarget.y = targetObj[j].y;
                }else{
                    trace("wrong target");
                    event.currentTarget.x = startX;
                    event.currentTarget.y = startY;
                }
            }//end for
        }
        
        private function MouseMove(event:MouseEvent):void{
            event.updateAfterEvent();
        }
        //just for tracing dragging actions purposing only
        public function get onDragStatus():Boolean { 
            return _onDrag; 
        }

    }//end class
}

So I really need tips or maybe some advice on how to go about it I mean the proper ways …since Im still neww with AS3…at least point me where my mistake exactly…

2ND QUESTIONS
2.How to collect movir properties on root in AS3 since in previous version I just initerate roots…like so…


for(var i in _root){
  trace(_root*._x+":"+_root*._y);
}

or someMC as backgroud

for(var i in someMC){
  trace(someMC*._x+":"+someMC*._y);
}

How to accomplish it in AS3 through document class…so that I can push in array easily…

ANy help are really appreciate…thanks again
