EaselJS: EASY Drag Method

I have seen an example of a drag method, which used an offset object that constantly calculated the difference between the position of the mouse and the position of the initial click, I think. But this is way easier.

1) The mousemove event listener has to be added to the mousedown event in order to work.

2) Position the object using the stageX and Y properties of the mousemove event.

3) Be sure to update the stage!

A mouse up event occurs when you release the mouse, so if you need something to occur then, add a mouseup event listener to the mousedown event.

EDIT: I came across this method somewhere else later - oh well, I guess I'm not a programming genius...

EaselJS: How to use the mouseup event

The mouseup event isn't as straight forward to use as the other click type events.

It has to be an event listener of a mousedown event, as shown above.

I believe the mousemove event is used in the same way (in fact, I figured out how to attach a mousedown event by looking at a mousemove event from the tutorials).
