    <p>I'm creating an XML custom card game and am at the point of building the deck and making them draggable so the user can drag and drop them on top of another card.</p> <p>I have figured out how to build the deck and put multiple instances of the movie clip that resides in the library, I just cannot figure out a way to make each one of the cards draggable. What currently is happening is the card on top of the deck is the only one that will drag, even if I click on the card below it. I have researched <code>setChildIndex()</code>, but I don't think I am using it correctly.</p> <p>Another issue I'm having is when the user clicks the click_btn (named for testing only) to build the deck it takes a while to build it, can that be sped up any?</p> <p>Then once the user clicks the first card to drag it there is another long wait?</p> <p>Document Class (CardGame.as)</p> <pre><code>package library { import flash.display.*; import flash.events.*; import flash.net.*; public class CardGame extends Sprite { /* * variables */ private var _xml:XML; private var _loader:URLLoader; private var cardArray:Array; private var activity:Activity; /* * constructor */ public function CardGame():void { _loader = new URLLoader(); _loader.addEventListene(Event.COMPLETE,buildArray); _loader.load(new URLRequest("library/card.xml")); click_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,buildDeck); } /* * metohods */ public function buildArray(e:Event):Array { cardArray = new Array(); _xml = new XML(_loader.data); for(var i=0;i&lt;_xml.card.length();i++) { if(_xml.card.face[i]=="activity") { cardArray.push({id:_xml.card.id[i],face:_xml.card.face[i],category:_xml.card.category[i],point:_xml.card.point[i],value:_xml.card.value[i]}); } else if(_xml.card.face[i]=="event") { cardArray.push({id:_xml.card.id[i],face:_xml.card.face[i],category:_xml.card.category[i],point:_xml.card.point[i],value:_xml.card.value[i]}); } else { trace("no card found"); } } return cardArray; } public function buildDeck(e:Event):void { for(var i=0;i&lt;cardArray.length;i++) { if(cardArray[i].face == "activity") { activity = new Activity(); activity.x = 200; activity.y = 150; activity.id = i; activity.name = "b"+i; activity.buttonMode = true; stage.addChild(activity); activity.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,dragStart); activity.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,dragStop); } } } public function dragStart(e:Event):void { activity.parent.setChildIndex(activity, numChildren - 1); activity.startDrag(); } public function dragStop(e:Event):void { this.stopDrag(); } } } </code></pre> <p>card.xml</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?&gt; &lt;cardgame&gt; &lt;card&gt; &lt;id&gt;1&lt;/id&gt; &lt;face&gt;activity&lt;/face&gt; &lt;catagory&gt;Task&lt;/catagory&gt; &lt;point&gt;2&lt;/point&gt; &lt;value&gt;Change the rule.&lt;/value&gt; &lt;/card&gt; &lt;card&gt; &lt;id&gt;21&lt;/id&gt; &lt;face&gt;event&lt;/face&gt; &lt;catagory&gt;Injury&lt;/catagory&gt; &lt;point&gt;-2&lt;/point&gt; &lt;value&gt;Injury due to animal/snake/insect bite-count 3.&lt;/value&gt; &lt;/card&gt; &lt;/cardgame&gt; </code></pre> <p>The xml file actually has 64 activity card entries and 41 event card entries, but I trimmed it down to make it easier.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
