if you want to click a symbol, and make a copy of it to drag I would use:

depthVar = 0;
ball.onPress = function() {
newBall = attachMovie("ball", "ballCopy", depthVar);
newBall._x = ball._x;
newBall._y = ball._y;
newBall.startDrag();
newBall.onPress = function() {
this.startDrag();
};
newBall.onRelease = function() {
this.stopDrag();
};
};
ball.onReleaseOutside = function() {
depthVar++;
newBall.stopDrag();
};

the symbol clicked("ball") has to be given an instance name of ball, and ball has to be given a name for linkage("ball"), by right clicking it in the library and clicking linkage - export for actionscript.

if you have any problems, or if you want to know how to go about with the grid, ring my bell! good luck

I uploaded a little file, with a grid... very plain stuff

@ Tempesta: That file in your zip is looking pretty empty - completely empty to be exact ...perhaps you could send it as .fla 'cos it sounds exactly like the thing we're looking for.

Also, we wondered how we can link this:

ball.onPress = function(){
//whatever
temp._yscale += 50
temp._xscale += 50
}

to the script posted by Tempesta.

Thanks,

Never mind the yscale stuff we were a little hasty with asking stuff we could figure out ourselves - we got it to work.

Edit: we would have editted the previous post but that stupid EDIT button took way too long to load.

Sorry for the bumpety bumping...but we're still in the dark as to how to get a grid for the objects to "click" to working.

Any help would be really appreciated.
