1) In flash Draw what you want to be draggable and make it a movie clip and give it a name.

2) Add this script to it to make it draggable

Script----->

on (press) {
startDrag(this);
}
on (release) {
stopDrag();
}
3) Try the sucker out and if it works try to make something like mr patato head or...... stuff....

how do i make a button?

1)open a flash document
2) create a circle
3)right click on the circle
4) at the bottom look for 'convert to symbol' and click it
5) click the bubble for button and press ok

how do i put it to action?

PRE)make a button
1)on the bottom of the screen there are 3 bars, one of them says actions, open it up by pressing the triangle next to it
2)leftclick on the circle if you had not done so so that the title of the action bar says 'action - button'
3) now type exactly this in the given small white box where you can type:
on(release){gotoAndPlay(2);}

translation: 'on(release)' when you let go of the button '{gotoAndPlay(2);}' go to and play frame 2
you may change the frame to whatever you want

4)click on frame 1 in timeline
5)action tab should say action - frame
6) simply say:
{stop();}
dont put anything inbetween the parenthasis
translation: '{stop();}' stop this frame from playing

onClipEvent (load) {moveSpeed = 20;}

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {this._x += moveSpeed;} 
else if (Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {this._y -= moveSpeed;}
else if (Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) {this._y += moveSpeed;} 
else if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {this._x -= moveSpeed;}}

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {if (this.hitTest(_root.Uwall)) {_y = _y+20;}}

i dont understand buttons that much.[sm=dunno.gif]
i need better explanation.

i made better drag n drop tut:

1)Rename first layer object.

2) In flash Draw what you want to be draggable and make it a movie clip and name it an instance name.

3) Create a new layer and name it actions.

4)Lock the object layer.

5)give the actions layer this script (replace N with the instance name of what you drew)
Script--->

_root.N.onPress=function(){
this.startDrag();
};
_root.N.onRelease=function(){
stopDrag();
};

6)now u r done! make sumthing like potato head next!
