How I want it to look:


Well, I tried to animate it realistic and I hope you get my point.

When the mouse button is first pressed, measure the coordinate difference between the mouse position and the origin of the target being clicked. Then while the mouse button remains down, snap to the mouse position plus that difference.

See this example solution, where mdx and mdy represent the said coordinate difference.
