I have this to initialize my clips:

```auto
function initializeItem(obj) {
    obj.startx = obj._x;
    obj.starty = obj._y;
    obj.returnFlag = false;    
}

```

but If I code a button to reset the clips using:

```auto
resetBTN.onRelease = function{
obj._x=obj.startx ;
    obj._y=obj.starty;
}

```

it doesn’t put them back where they were before they were dragged and dropped on the target clips.

Everything else is working fine, but I tried different combinations to reset the clips and nothing happens.

Any lights?? The file is still the one in the original post, with the correction marked by Macaroni ( thanks again!!)

I’m posting this part in a new post, because the old one is marked as closed and I can’t edit it:(

Thanks!
