Dragging createEmptyMovieClips

[Fearless]

Hey Guys,

After creating empty movie clips is there any possible way to drag them?

Heres the creation code:

on(press) {
	_root.createEmptyMovieClip("factor",_root.numFactors);
	with (_root.factor) {
		beginFill(0xFF0000, 25);
		lineStyle(1, 0x000000, 100);
		lineTo(240, 110)
		lineTo(0, 220)
		lineTo(0, 0)
		endFill()
}
_root.numFactors++;
_root.numFactors = 1;
}

It just creates another triangle over the last each time I click the button.
I want to be able to drag them each individually. Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Fearless

on(press) {
	_root.createEmptyMovieClip("factor"+i,++depth);
	with (factor) {
		beginFill(0xFF0000, 25);
		lineStyle(1, 0x000000, 100);
		lineTo(240, 110)
		lineTo(0, 220)
		lineTo(0, 0)
		endFill()
}
i+=1;
}
on(release){
	factor.onPress = function(){
	this.startDrag(false);
		}
	factor.onRelease = function(){
		stopDrag();
}
}

Now you can drag MC "factor", but to drag them each individually, I think you should make MovieClip.prototype.

Here's another way to look at it.

on (press) {
	this.createEmptyMovieClip("factor"+_root.numFactors, ++depth);
	with (_root["factor"+_root.numFactors]) {
		beginFill(0xFF0000, 25);
		lineStyle(1, 0x000000, 100);
		lineTo(240, 110);
		lineTo(0, 220);
		lineTo(0, 0);
		endFill();
	}
	_root["factor"+_root.numFactors].onPress = function() {
		this.startDrag(false);
	};
	_root["factor"+_root.numFactors].onRelease = function() {
		stopDrag();
	};
	_root.numFactors++;
}

Excellent! Thanks for this example.
