flash actionscript: I have two draggable movies on a single line: marked with yellow and blue. They can be freely moved back and forth but should not overlap, but rather push each other when one is dragged next to another.

I attach the file here. Please, feel free to modify the file if you know how to resolve this issue.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

I give up. Any takers?

hey there... it seems like you need a collision detection script. now i know nothing about collision scripting [yet!]... so, you can check the sites below, they may help or browse this forum for collision.

the Kirupa.com link sends you to a simple collision script, you'll need to modify it to suit your needs. i hope this points you in the right direction.

if you really think about it.... i wouldn't have to!

Someone mentioned HitTest before, but I'm not sure hot to apply it in my file.

I'll look into it at the links you've included.

Thanks.
