I'm making a puzzle & need to have the pieces snap together...I know how to make them draggable, I just don't know how to make them sbap into place...My Flash MX book is no help...please help!!!!

Using hitTest() you can detect if one object (or movieClip) is touching another, and if so, you can just tell it to go to a specific _x and _y which will look like it's snapping.

Lemme know if it works,

what is the code for telling it to go to the exact x & y coords?


thanks

You just use dot notation. Like if your clip's instance name is "thing" you say<pre>thing._x = 50;</pre>
