Drag and drop then SNAP BACK TO ORIGIN → URGENT HELP PLEASE

programming flash
1

THANKS FOR ANY HELP! :slight_smile:

5 text choices (choice_1 → choice_5)
5 text field targets (box_1 → box_5)

FUNCTION:

  1. Drag the choices to the targets.
  2. When dropped they display in target fields.
  3. Then snap back.

I thought I had it but no cigar … must be close though.

Everything functions properly EXCEPT when I drag a choice and drop it all five choices go to choice_5 (XY) instead of their own origin.

HOW DO I SOLVE THIS?
