How Do I Change States When Mouse Moves Off an Object?

Oct 05, 2013

Hi Heroes,

I already have "State Changes to Normal for object C" when I Drag and Drop object A onto Object B.

Now, I want Object C to change back to Hidden when I move the mouse curser off where I just dragged and dropped as I now go after another object to D&D.

How do I do that? If it's complicated, please spell it out in detail.

Thanks,

Rick

Hi Rick,

Personally, I wouldn't use a trigger to hide object C until the user has dropped object A onto object B. Instead, I would use the in-built functionality and select the 'Reveal drag items one at a time' - this is the second check-box on the right after clicking on 'Edit Drag and Drop'.

In response to your question, I don't think you can add a trigger that is executed when the user removes the mouse cursor off an object but you can add a trigger to hide it once it has been dropped;

Action: Change state of

On Object: Object C

To state: Hidden

When: Object dropped on

Object: [Drop Target 1], [Drop Target 2] etc.

I hope this helps.
