[COLOR=DarkRed]*Below is the code for drawing a square to select MULTIPLE items on stage , then drag the selected items around the stage… Some problems arise while dragging the movieclips lag behing a little if we drag faster… Also NEED TO KNOW IF THIS COULD BE OPTIMISED AS I FEEL THE CODE IS VERY SHABBY!:azn: THANKS IN ADVANCE.
i AM TRYING TO DO THIS IN AS 3.O WILL PASTE IT ONCE IT IS DONE… AS3.0 KEEPS GIVING ME ALL SORTS OF ERRORS:hangover:.
