How to move image sprites on canvas

Discuss

#1

I am able to drag and move images on the canvas but i want them to move on the point where i touch them. Currently it doesnt matter where i touch them they move on their center but i want them to move on the point where i touch them like in any image editing apps

If i am understanding correctly, you want the images to move on the tip of your finger as you drag your finger accross the canvas? You could do “when sprite dragged” move sprite x = current x, y = current y

#3

that moves the image on the top left point

#4

would you want it on the center?
if yes then just do this:

move sprite x = current x + (sprite width/2)
y = current y + (sprite height/2)

#5

no, on the point where i touch it

i know how to do it on the center

#6

maybe this:
make a variable that stores x and y of the sprite (lets call these variables x1 and y1)
move sprite x = current x + ( start x - x1)
y = current y + (start y -y1)

then each time your done moving (ie, when touched up) save the new x and y in the x1 y1 variables

edit: this does not work
