I am working on a drag and drop slide using the freeform, but I'm not using hotspots. I hide the 'drop target' object after the correct drag object has been dropped on it. However, even after hiding, I can still drop another drag object on hidden 'drop target'. (I need to have the 'Return item to start point if dropped outside' set to 'any drop target'). Is this a bug or is this how it functions? Is there a way to stop the hidden drop target from continuing to function?
Oh hey, I had to abandon that train of thought. I hadn't realised someone had replied. But thank you. This community and the heroes are all really great!
In case anyone is still looking for a solution to this, a cheap way to do it is to move the hotspot (or object you're dropping on) off the screen. I thought for sure that hiding an object would stop it from being a target, but not so. Moving off screen isn't perfect, but it works.

I think it is expected behaviour, it is annoying and I always find it difficult to stop the drop behaviour.
