hi all,

Is it possible to lock only the horizontal(or vertical) position?

 

thanks,

best regards...

You could use event handlers to do something like that. For example, to limit movements to up-and-down (vertical):

 

var item:TransformItem = myManager.getItem(mc);
myManager.addEventListener(TransformEvent.START_INTERACTIVE_MOVE, startMoveHandler);
var startX:Number;
function startMoveHandler(event:TransformEvent):void {
startX = item.x;
}
myManager.addEventListener(TransformEvent.MOVE, moveHandler);
function moveHandler(event:TransformEvent):void {
if (item.x != startX) {
	item.x = startX;
	myManager.updateSelection(false);
}
}

Is it possible make objects snap to a grid ?

No "snap to grid" functionality is built into the current version of TransformManager, no. But you can certainly build that feature yourself.

To do that is very simple. Just follow the procedure provided by the system, then you should get going with the lock position of the horizontal. I dont really know of the vertical.
