[Xerte] Re: Drag and drops

[Julian Tenney]

You want to constrain it to only move over the target? Or to only register the event when dropped over the target, other drops don't do anything / something different?

hitTest isn't fussy about layers, I think.

What's the scenario?

Such fun for a Friday!

I'm thinking about using a combination of target areas and hitTest to do some drag/drop things.

Couple questions:
 - Any way to constrain things so a dragged object has to be totally within the target area before it registers a hit?

 - Do hitTests penetrate layers?
e.g. if I had a mask covering the screen and a target represented by a graphic in the next icon, if I drag an item completely onto the graphic will it register a hittest for both?
