Restrict movable point to integer values

Hi there kind helper,

I've created a little Geogebra file to show my students a locus to do with circles...

They can drag the centre of each circle (movable points 'A' and 'B') to where they like

BUT, I want to restrict it so they can only drag the centres to points with INTEGER COORDINATES.

Is that possible?

Thanks for your help...

Oh thanks ever so much Noel...

(I spent ages trying to work out how to do that; then as soon as I saw your reply, I realised what I need to do. Thanks...

Move a free movable point C and define

A=(round(x(C)), round(y(C)))

Create a free movable and hide point A'

then define:

A = DynamicCoordinates(A', round(x(A')), round(y(A')))

Or if the integer is for example 2, then define

A = DynamicCoordinates(A', round(x(A') / 2) 2, round(y(A') / 2) 2)

instead of constant 2 a slider is also possible

Note: you should use this variant if you want the integer to be independent of the zoom factor.
