How do I make touch controls for breakout game???

I've tried a few things and i'm stuck i am posting this again if anyone got solution,i am making a breakout game,and i need my paddle to move when i touch + move my finger around,so it's something like drag and drop i guess sort of a thing,but,i don't wan't the paddle to teleport wherever i put my finger,so,i must 1.Touch the paddle itself,and 2.Then drag it or move it around.How do i do that?

Drag and drop behaviour limited to horizontal axis should work..

here is what i use for this

var_int_player is the "speed" of the paddle

y: 109 and 319 are my boundaries, the paddle shouldnt move any further if it reaches this position

for your game you have to change y to x and the value for the boundaries.
