Flash pick up & move objects
Hi
I've been searching the web for information and/or a tutorial but can't find nothing.
Does anyone know how to create an object in Flash that can be picked up and moved?
Thanks!

In the samples in Flash there is one called Eggplant which does just that, can you look at that & work out how it's done??

Ah. I didn't see that example. Thank you for the heads up.
I still don't quite understand how it is moved about. I mean there are no actions associated with that frame (no flash actionscript). And each item's properites are just simply marked as 'buttons'.
Hm, am I missing something here?
Thanks for your help...

This confused me at first but:
open sample
right click on an object, then select edit in new window
right click the object again, then select properties
select the actions tab & you'll see what makes it move
Hope this helps

Thank you! That did help. I now see actionscript similar to:
on (press) {startDrag ("/Eyes2");
}
on (release) {
stopDrag ();
}
Now I have to play around with exactly how this work and see what I come up with!
Thanks!
