could you try and be more specific? I know it's hard on the translation to show what you want, but I can't understand what you mean by your post.

Hope I can help!

Maybe something like this from Orbz http://gamesalad.com/game/play/79272 it is set to work with mouse but will work with touch too.

i try to make something like a pong; and use touch to move the player, in X line(portrait format),

Create a boolean called "isTouched"

Create a rule
-if actor receives event - touch - pressed
-- change attribute self.isTouched to true
OTHERWISE
-- change attribute self.isTouched to false

Create a Timer: every - 0
Create a rule INSIDE that timer
- if self.isTouched is True & if game.Touches > 0
--change attribute: self.Position.X = game.Touches.Touch 1.X

hope this helps!

EDIT: due to scitune's post, used the otherwise function to allow for only 1 rule. Kudos scitunes!

here's what I would do:

constrain self.positionY to where ever you want the pong actor to be positioned

if touch is pressed change self.isTouched to true
OTHERWISE change self.isTouched to False

Rule when self.isTouched is true
constrain self.position.X to game.touch1.x

hum ok ok, but i try to insert colid with blocks and dont work, is like a kind of a bug,
i put colide with walls, and the actor, make a weird loop

When you constrain it overrides the physics so it will not collide with blocks properly.
