Can I create a text box that users can first type into and then drag to another location on the screen? I cant figure out how to do this. Appreciate the help!

Pretty sure that’s not possible. I really wish there was drag and drop support.
This would have to be fixed first:

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
There are ma… ny great uses for detecting a "mouse up" event on a sprite or canvas. For example, board game "pieces" can be dragged to a new position and then snap-to-grid can be coded to force placement of those pieces in certain positions.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
An "up" event for mouse clicks/taps in sprites and canvases.
**Describe alternatives you've considered**
I have tried many things but I can't find a workaround.
**Which platform are you asking for?**
Thunkable X
**Additional context**
And then applied to all components, not just sprites. Feel free to add a comment on that GitHub topic so it gets more attention.

I was a little afraid about this: so it’s not possible to make anything drag-able in thunkable?

You can drag & drop sprites but I find the functionality severely limited. And it doesn’t apply to components. So no, not really.
