Transforming dynamic assets

Hi

I seem to have a problem with Transform Manager..

I'm loading in new squares by clicking on the original square movieclip,, and I want the new squares to be transformable..

Is there something wrong with my code?

Any help appreciated!

 

import com.greensock.transform.TransformManager;

import com.greensock.events.TransformEvent;

 

var newSquare:MovieClip;

//this is the duplicate square variable

 

var manager:TransformManager = new TransformManager({targetObjects:[newSquare], addItem:(newSquare),bounds:new Rectangle(0, 0, 550, 365)});

 

square_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, addSquare);

//here im adding the new squares

 

function addSquare(e:MouseEvent):void {

newSquare = new Square();

newSquare.x = stage.x/2 + stage.width/2;

addChild(newSquare);

 

newSquare.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, dragIt);

newSquare.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, stopdragIt);

}

There seem to be a lot of mistakes in that code. I assume you meant something more like:

 

var manager:TransformManager = new TransformManager({bounds:new Rectangle(0, 0, 550, 365)});

square_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, addSquare);

function addSquare(e:MouseEvent):void {
   newSquare = new Square();
   newSquare.x = stage.x/2 + stage.width/2;
   addChild(newSquare);
   manager.addItem(newSquare);
}

 

Right?

Yep, that works great except for one thing, when I let go, or try resize the movieclip the transform handles move in a different direction.. any clues?

Actually nevermind I fixed that by removing the drag and strop drag functionality I had attached to it
