I tried to load the 3DFlip.swf into a loader object inside a papervision which site which is a Flex project and it just doesn't work. I know that I can do it in papervision but its wrecking my head not knowing why it wont work. All other swf's loaded in have no issues. All the assets are in the same directory. Is there some issue with using FLVPlayback component in a Flex project? curious....

Must be a bug in startDrag(). I found that the element being rotated can remain draggable, even after being rotated, by not using startDrag() and just dealing with the drag on your own.

To go along with JimW's addition here i also created my own controls to see if that would eliminate the problem but unfortunately the issue is exactly the same. i did though however come up with an immediate solution until this answer is solved... just use the scrubber as a marker for vid progress and comment out or delete the code that allows the user to drag the scrubber. this isn't the best answer yet the end user won't ever have the chance of noticing the problem as well :) Back again and still haven’t figured this one out yet.

I was flipping my own movie that contained draggable sprites and have the same exact problem. It will still respond to a click, just not draggable. At first I thought it was my understanding of events and handlers, but am now thinking there's some kind of bug. I've wasted a lot of time on this already, so if anyone has any ideas on what might be going on, I'd love to hear..

I'm having a problem with a "blur" effect applying whenever I flip my image. Any clue where this comes from? :s I mixed your tutorial and this one : http://www.flepstudio.org/forum/flash-cs4-tutorials/3550-rotationx-rotationy.html Maybe that's why? Hey!

Great tutorial but im having issues when importing this movie into a moviclip in another movie, than the buttons on the videoplaybackcomponent stops working after the flip. Ive also come accross this problems with other movies that uses the caurina tweener. Im new to as3 so im probably cauzing it myself but i dont know. the thing is that it works when i import it directly to the stage in my main movie but if i import it to a movieclip it doesnt work correctly. The same happens to a blurscroll im using, example can be found here www.jonwalstedt.se/flash/3d here the scrollwheel works but the draggable slider doesnt work when its imported to a moviclip in another movie. what am i missing? shouldnt the movie thats getting imported work without having to be adapted for the main movie? any help i can get is much appriceated!
