Hi everyone I want to create my new slider. The only thing I cant figure it out is how to apply mouse grape or slide animation on my svg object. I want to change the x position of my SVG object with mouse holding left click. Thanks. ---

Take a look at system.gui.transform() - use the SVG object as an argument, then work out the new X and pass that on as well. ---
