[flexcoders] URGENT: drag and drop problem!

[Alessio Prosperi]

I still haven't found a solution to the problem described below.   Could you please help me and send me some suggestion?   Thanks Alessio         ----- Original Message ----- From: Alessio Prosperi To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, March 24, 2005 10:25 AM Subject: [flexcoders] drag and drop problem! Hi to everyone, I developed a e-commerce solution based on drag'n'drop. I split the main application in small sub-applications so I can load every section only if it's necessary.   I load every section in a Loader object inside a Panel (as in Flex samples - drag'n'drop).   I have a component (in the loaded application) that starts the drag operation.   The problem is: the drag doesn't start when Flex fires mouseDown event (I have a component inside the application loaded in the Loader). Why should I change the mouseDown event in mouseMove event (otherwise the drag doesn't start)?     example:   main.mxml   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml">  <mx:Panel title="Start drag from here" width="200" height="200">   <mx:Loader contentPath="drag.mxml.swf" scaleContent="false" width="100%" height="100%" />  </mx:Panel>  <mx:Panel title="Drop here" width="200" height="200">   </mx:Panel> </mx:Application>       drag.mxml   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml">  <mx:Script>  <![CDATA[    function beginDrag() {             var ds = new mx.core.DragSource();             ds.addData({name: "test"}, "product");             mx.managers.DragManager.doDrag(this, ds, drag, {mxml: true});         }   ]]>  </mx:Script>  <mx:Image source="@Embed('images/ups.jpg')" scaleContent="false" mouseDown="beginDrag()" /> </mx:Application>   If I run drag.mxml the drag starts correctly. If I run main.mxml the drag doesn't start: I must use mouseMove instead of mouseDown event. Is this a Flex bug? However, even using mouseMove event, the dragged object doesn't exit from the Panel. How can I resolve this situation? If I run the Flex example of drag and drop, the object can move outside its application limits only if the scrollbars are missing. Don't you find it strange? Anyway I don't have scrollbars so this is not my problem I only liked to tell you. I need help as soon as possible!   Alessio Prosperi [EMAIL PROTECTED] Adacto - anima digitale ------------------------------------------ Adacto s.r.l.
