How to do Drag? (and eventually Drop:)
May 10th, 2005, 5:41pm  
(i'm bad in english so please be merciful Smiley

I would like to drag a square or wathever u want, i cand do it easyly with actionscript, but with processing...
I tried something with the "mousePressed" like:
void draw() {
 if (mousePressed == true) {
mySquare.posX=mouseX;
mySquare.posY=mouseY;
"and here i put a method to show the square like:
mySquare.show();"
}

But... it doesn't work (of coarse ^^)
Can somebody make a good action and do a little and beautiful example?

Processing works very differently from Actionscript for this type of work. Here's an example:
