Hello!
I need help with drag and drop functions. I have done a animation like a windows window that i want to do so i can drag and drop it. I think the window should have a code like this:
[color=blue]**on (press) {**[/color]
[color=blue]**tellTarget(“Fonster”){**[/color]
[color=blue]**gotoAndPlay(“1drag”)**[/color]
[color=blue] **}** [/color]
[color=blue]**startDrag ("\_root.Fonster");**[/color]
[color=blue] **}** [/color]
[color=blue]**on (release) {**[/color]
[color=blue]**tellTarget(“Fonster”){**[/color]
[color=blue]**gotoAndPlay(“1drop”)**[/color]
[color=blue] **}** [/color]
[color=blue]**stopDrag ("\_root.Fonster");**[/color]
[color=blue] **}** [/color]
[left][color=red]::The tellTarget i have in the code is an effect::[/color][/left]
But it aint working. Someone know what the problem is?

on (press) {
\_root.Fonster.gotoAndPlay(“1drag”);
\_root.Fonster.startDrag ();
}
on (release) {
\_root.Fonster.gotoAndPlay(“1drop”);
stopDrag ();
}
that should work… tellTarget has been depricated since flash 5 try to avoid using it when you can.
Good Luck
