touch translation along path

[VincentPix]

Hi

I want to do a tactile prog where the object translation is constraint along a path.
The user touch the object and pull it along this path. if the object is not released on the start position or the end position, it will finish by itself to go the nearest point.

I can't figure how to do this.

my first ideas :

a/ animation of the objet with an animation control (0 to 100%)

b/using the touch translation node and animating the limits. (messy solution)

thank you for any clue you'll give me.

regards

Hi Vincent,

I would go with the animation option personally.

If you wanted to animate along a curved path, it will be easier to animate in an external 3D program and import the animation using the collada format

Cheers

Thanks Chris

The animation is not the tough part. Once the animation is done, how can I move it along this path with tactile ?
Clicking the object and dragging it along the path.

thanks
