Problem with Drag and drop in panel dashboard

Hi
I am having problem with drag and drop in panel dashboard.
I will explain what i am doing.
I am using Oracle three column template in First region i am having a table that showing all customer.
I drag one record from my table and drop it on customer info (CIF) page on second region it is working fine.
my CIF page has a dashboard with 6 panel box. i am showing 6 different jsff in 6 panel box.
I put drop target in each jsff
<af:dropTarget dropListener="#{backingBeanScope.backing_customerinformation.handleItemDrop}"
actions="COPY">
<af:dataFlavor flavorClass="org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.model.RowKeySet"
discriminant="CustomerSearchDnD"/>
</af:dropTarget>
when i put drop target my panel boxes moves only when i drag it to another panel box header not entire part of panel box.
if i remove the drop target then panel box move normally as the example given on: [http://adfui.us.oracle.com:7778/faces-trunk/faces/visualDesigns/dashboard.jspx?_afrLoop=2021391022520156&_afrWindowMode=0&_afrWindowId=null] but in taht case i am not able to drag and drop my data

You must be an Oracle employee as you're referring to a component in the upcoming JDeveloper version which has yet been released to the general public. Oracle employee's are, I believe, directed to post on internal Oracle forums.

Problem with Drag and Drop on a JTree

I would like to have a JTree with drag and drop support with the following characteristics:
1) The JTree holds near 100 different kinds of TreeNodes
2) The drag and drop operation uses TreeNodes as Transferable
3) The drop operation adds a new TreeNode child on the TreeNode that accepts the drop
4) There are some rules for a TreeNode to accept the drops by example:
     Type1 can accept Type2
     Type2 can accept Type3
     All other combinations are not allowed
I am using the following classes to support this behavior
JTree
DataFlavor
DragSourceListener
DropTarget
DropTargeListener
DragSource
GestureListener
Transferable
The question is:
How to change the cursor shape when the mouse is over a node to show graphically the drop accepting rules.?
I can not use the the following methods to change the cursor-shape
DropTargetListener.dragEnter
And
DropTargetListener.dragOver
Case they receive a DropTargetDragEvent witch don�t knows nothing about the TreeNode type dragged.
I can not create a TreeNode on the method GestureListener.dragGestureRecognized cause this could not work when dragging between two diffents JVM.

Hello,
You might want to search this forum for this class : DNDTree.java. It pretty much does the job.

Problem with drag and drop on Mac

Hi, when I run my AIR application on Windows, I'm able to do
the drag and drop.
But when I run the application on Mac, it gave me an
allocation error: unable to allocate region of size <random
number> after I drag and drop thrice.
Anybody knows what's the reason?

Pages does not support the Apple font used for color emoji, so that behavior is normal.
With what app are you reading the yahoo mail? There is really no guarantee than any other email service will show the special Apple font involved.
You should have no problem putting emoji directly into Mail or Text edit via drag drop from the Character Viewer as shown below.
You should also be able to upload graphics here easily by clicking on the camera icon. My email is tom at bluesky dot org.

Problem with Drag and drop manager

I am noticing that the sample provided at
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=dragdrop_7.html is not working when tried on any version of FireFox browser on a Mac OS version 10.6.3.
So my understanding is that there seems to be some problem with the drag and drop manager in Flex when used on Firefox on a Mac OS version 10.6.3.
It will be very helpful if you can provide any work around for this issue. We want to implement the drag and drop feature in a website that we are building for one of our clients.

Problem with drag and drop

Hi! I'm having a problem with getting this code working, basically I want to drag and drop two things onto another the things dissapear then it moves onto a new page, the first item works properly but then the second item wont dissapear and remains stuck to the cursor. Heres the code I'd be greatful of any help.
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import fl.motion.MotionEvent;
stop();
Back6_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onBack6Click)
function onBack6Click(event:MouseEvent):void{
    gotoAndPlay("Bedroom2");
    Forward6_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onForward6Click)
function onForward6Click(event:MouseEvent):void{
    gotoAndPlay('Brother bit');
var inGran:Number=0;
Gin.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, dragOn);
Tonic.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, dragOn);
function dragOn(event:MouseEvent):void {
    event.target.startDrag(false);
    stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dragOff);
function dragOff(event:MouseEvent):void {
    event.target.stopDrag();
    if (event.target.dropTarget!=null&&event.target.dropTarget.parent==Gran) {
        event.target.visible=false;
        inGran++;
    stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dragOff);
function checkPage(e:Event):void {
    if (inGran==2) {
        gotoAndPlay("Bedroom1");

you have some mismatched brackets, change your target properties to currentTarget (and i'm not sure you're dropping onto the correct target) but, try:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import fl.motion.MotionEvent;
stop();
Back6_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onBack6Click)
function onBack6Click(event:MouseEvent):void{
    gotoAndPlay("Bedroom2");
    Forward6_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onForward6Click)
function onForward6Click(event:MouseEvent):void{
    gotoAndPlay('Brother bit');
var inGran:Number=0;
Gin.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, dragOn);
Tonic.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, dragOn);
function dragOn(event:MouseEvent):void {
event.currentTarget.parent.addChild(event.currentTarget);
    event.target.startDrag(false);
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dragOff);
function dragOff(event:MouseEvent):void {
    event.target.stopDrag();
    if (event.target.dropTarget!=null&&event.target.dropTarget.parent==Gran) {
        event.target.visible=false;
        inGran++;
    stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dragOff);
function checkPage(e:Event):void {
    if (inGran==2) {
        gotoAndPlay("Bedroom1");

Problem with Drag and Drop (TransferHandler)

I have a stern problem with the java.swing.TransferHandler. It shows a design weakness, and because of a tiny glitch I am currently not able to finish my task.
The design weakness is that method importData(JComponent comp, Transferable t) does not pass the dropAction information in the parameter list. The application case in question is a transfer from a JTree to a JTree (might likewise be to/from a JList). The transfer semantics imply that partial success is possible (there are item identity and uniqueness considerations to handle). - I can deal with all detail demands except that I cannot discriminate between COPY and MOVE taking place in the transfer. Also I don't find any possibility to retrieve this information by subclassing TranferHandler or from any other element there.
Is there any expert who knows a solution?

I came up with two solutions. One is I modified my application requirements for the time being so the problem disappears. :)
Second, I had the idea to create a subclass of javax.swing.TransferHandler and copy/override as many methods as necessary to allow for an extra method public boolean importData(JComponent comp, Transferable t, int action) and derive the extra value from a modified method DropHandler.drop(DropTargetDropEvent e) in a copy of the DropHandler.
Whether this really works, I have not tested.
As for your answer, Andre_Uhres, I don't find it elaborate enough that it leads to a solution, hence no stars rewarded. You leave it open how to get hold of the DropTarget events which are dealt with privately in javax.swing.TransferHandler.
I consider the subject closed for my purposes. Thanks very much for your reply!

Problem with drag and drop application windows from one workspace to another

I work with multiple desktops (Spaces) and before I freely dragged the mouse a window from one space to another, now the mouse rests on the edge of space and the application does not become the next space. What am I doing wrong or where this option is set?

After the publication of the problem has disappeared, the window is dragged. Miracle! )

Hello,
Sure you can build it, I just don't think anyone has, you could also use their solution as well in an APEX page it's just a matter of integration.

Sounds like you "upgraded" to Pages 5.
Apple has removed over 90 features from Pages 5.

Lost drag and drop properties panel CP8

I developed a project in Captivate 7. It included some drag and drop interactions. I've upgraded to CP8 as we want to be able to release the training on mobile devices.
I have not set it up to be a responsive project at this point - I've not learned enough about how to do that.
I can create and edit new drag and drop interactions but as soon as I save them, close the file and reopen it, they are no longer editable. The drag and drop properties panel won't show up, the D&D outlines (blue and green) disappear, the D&D option in interactions is greyed out and I cannot edit the interaction at all. It still has the submit button in the corner and this cannot be deleted. There doesn't seem to be a way to edit the interaction at all.
When I go to close the file and save it, it tells me that it is a captivate 7 file and as soon as I save it, it won't open in Captivate 7 only 8. Save as just saves it as a Captivate file.
How can I work around this?

Drag&Drop would not work in responsive projects anyway.
Maybe this is due to the upgrade? And I suppose you are working in Newbie mode, where panels are controlled by Captivate? You could try in Expert mode (fourth option 'Enable...' in Preferences) because it will allow you to open the Drag&Drop panel from the Window menu.

SharePoint Server Publishing Infrastructure with drag-and-drop

Hello,
When I activated "SharePoint Server Publishing Infrastructure" future, I can no longer use drag-and-drop functionality between two libraries (eg. drag from Document Library to MyDoc library). When I disable it, drag and drop is possible.
But I need both of this functionalities, because i use Managed navigation. What should I do?
Thanks in advance,
Tomaz

Hi Tomaz,
According to your description, I could reproduce this issue as:
1. Create a web application with team site
2. Create a new library called docA, upload a new document
3. Then I could move the document to Document library with drag-and-drop feature
4. Activate SharePoint Server Publishing Infrastructure
5. I could not move the document from Document library to docA library with drag-and-drop feature
6. Upload a new document to docA, then also could not move it to Document library with drag-and-drop feature
Since you also want to use Managed Navigation, you can use Content and Structure feature to move a document from one library to another library. You can do as Site Settings->content and structure under Site Administration->clicking on the library,
then you can move or copy the document to the destination library.
I hope this helps.
Thanks,

Can you use a custom cursor with drag and drop?

Hi there! I'm a newbie flash user and working on a simulation for a graduate course in instructional design. I'm using Flash Professional CC on Mac. Here's what I'm trying to do. I have several draggable sprites on the stage and three target sprites. I have specified the original x,y locations of the sprites and have set the end x,y locations as those of each of the three targets. Items must be dragged to one of the three targets.
Some questions:
1. Can I specify more than one End x,y location for a draggable sprite? I'm creating a lesson to teach kindergartners how to sort lunchroom waste. If they have a napkin, for example, it could either go into the compost OR into the recycling. In cases like this where an item could really be placed into more than one bin, I want them to get it right if they do either of those things, rather than forcing them to choose which one.
2. To make my project more "fun" for kids, I wanted to customize the cursor with a graphic of hand. When I tried this in the flash file it works perfectly until I add the drag and drop functionality for the wasted items. Then the cursor will more around but not pick up any items. Once I revert back to the standard pointer, the correct drag and drop functionality is restored.
3. I have it set to snap back to the original location if learner attempts to drop the item on the wrong target. I want to be able to play a sound file when that happens, as well as play a sound file when it lands on the correct target, as well as shrink the item and change its opacity so that it appears invisible. I want to give the illusion of it being placed into the bin. I have no idea as to the proper way to code these events so that they happen.
4. I've watched dozens of hours of youtube tutorials before coming here. I'm a quick study, but am very new to action script. In one of the videos the developer showed referencing an external action script file which I don't think is an option in CC. The coding method he used seemed much more streamlined and "clean" than the chunks I'm working with now. Is there an easy way for me to code information about these objects than the way I've got it here now? I hate starting new things with bad habits. The perils of self-teaching.
Thanks!

Some questions:
1. Can I specify more than one End x,y location for a draggable sprite?
yes, use an if-else statement
I'm creating a lesson to teach kindergartners how to sort lunchroom waste. If they have a napkin, for example, it could either go into the compost OR into the recycling. In cases like this where an item could really be placed into more than one bin, I want them to get it right if they do either of those things, rather than forcing them to choose which one.

Once I revert back to the standard pointer, the correct drag and drop functionality is restored.
assign your cursor's mouseEnabled property to false:
yourcursor.mouseEnabled=false;
3. I have it set to snap back to the original location if learner attempts to drop the item on the wrong target. I want to be able to play a sound file when that happens, as well as play a sound file when it lands on the correct target, as well as shrink the item and change its opacity so that it appears invisible. I want to give the illusion of it being placed into the bin. I have no idea as to the proper way to code these events so that they happen.
use the sound class to create a sound:
// initialize your correct sound once with
var correctSound:Sound=new CorrectSound(); // add an mp3 sound to your library and assign it class = CorrectSound
// apply the play() method everytime you want your sound to play:
correctSound.play();
// change an object's opacity:
someobject.alpha = .3; // partially visible
someobject.alpha = 1; // fully visible
someobject.visible=false; // not visible, at all.
// change an object's scale
someobject.scaleX=someobject.scaleY=.5; // shink width and height by 2
someobject.scaleX=someobject.scaleY=1; // resize to original

you could google:
actionscript 3 class coding
actionscript 3 object oriented programming
p.s. you can simplify and streamline your coding by learning about arrays and using hitTestObject.

Possible Bug with Drag-and-Drop Being Published via HTML5 - Getting "Undefined" Error When Dragging Object

Hello,
I came up with a way to use drag-and-drop interactions that will take advantage of file input so that I may create a drag-and-drop interaction that uses one draggable object over and over allowing multiple scoring/tracking possibilities. Example use...is having the draggable object be dynamic in that it randomly changes its text so that a learner can drag a term it's possible classification.........thus allowing the possibility of having many terms easily loaded without having to redo a drag-and-drop interaction for each needed terms/classifications updates/changes.
My Issue: When using a variable to represent the text for a draggable Smart Shape object, I'm getting the error message "undefined" when, clicking/pressing on the object, as well as during the drag of the object. This issue occurs when publishing the project in an HTML5 format. Flash interestingly enough seems to work perfect...but we are not interested in publishing via Flash any longer.
To better help you explore this error message, I've set up a test project so that you can see when and how the "undefined" message shows up during a drag-and-drop interaction. I've also included the Captivate 8 project file used to make the exploration project I'm sharing in this post.
Link to Captivate project I created for you all to explore "undefined" error message": http://iti.cscc.edu/drag_and_drop_bug/
Link to this Captivate 8 Project file: http://iti.cscc.edu/drag_and_drop_bug.cptx
It's pretty interesting how things react in this demo, please try the following actions to see some interesting happenings:
Drag the Yellow (or variable drag box) to the drag target.
Drag Black Hello square to Drag target and click undo or reset - watch the undefined message come up on the Yellow (or variable drag box).
Drag the Yellow (or variable drag box) to the drag target and then use the undo or reset.
Move both draggable boxes to the drag target and use the undo and reset buttons...
Anyhow, I know you all are sharp and will run the demo through its paces.
I'd really be very honored if anyone help me figure out how I could (when publishing out to HTML5) no longer have the "undefined" error message show up when using drag-and-drop with a variable for shape text. This technique has been well received at the college I work at...and I have many future project requests for using such an idea on a variety of similar interactions. I'd love see a solution or see if this might be a bug Adobe may be able to fix!
I tried to find a solution to the issue documented here for quite some time, but I was not able to find anyone with this problem much less attempting the idea I'm sharing in the help request - save the darn "undefined" message that comes up!
Many thanks in advance for any help and/or direction that you all may be able to provide,
Paul

Hello,
I just wanted to supply a minor update related to my drag-and-drop question/issue stated above:
I did another test using Captivate 7, and found that the undefined error (publishing as HTML5) does not appear and the variable data remains visible - except the variable data turns very small and does not honor any font size related settings.
I did go ahead and submit this to Adobe as a possible bug today.
Thanks again for any help related to this issue. If the issued documented above is solved, it will allow many amazing things to be done using Captivate's drag-and-drop for both regular type projects as well as interaction development for iBooks!
Matter of fact if this issue gets fixed, I'll publish a Blog entry (or video) on way's I've used Captivate's drag-and-drop to create dynamic learning activities for Higher Ed. and for use in iBooks.

Stacked BarChart with drag and drop

Hi,
I have a BarChart with a stacked BarSet that can be drag and
dropped. The problem is that when I click on a BarSeries in the
chart to initiate a drag, only that BarSeries is being visually
dragged. I would like to visually drag all the BarSeries in the
stacked BarSet.
This is better explained with a "picture". Suppose I have the
following stacked mini-chart:
XXXXXYYYYYYYYYYYYYYZZZZ
XXXYYYYYYYYYZZZ
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXYYYYYYYZZZ
XXYYYYYYYYYYYZZZ
XXXYYYZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Here X, Y and Z are BarSeries. When I click on ZZZ to
initiate a drag, only the ZZZ is visually dragged. I understand
that this is okay, but in my case I want to see XXXYYYZZZ visually
dragged.
How can I do this?
Cheers,
Andrej

At a guess, I'd hide the real bars and make a dragProxy from
a bitmap
capture of the entire stack...

Advanced Feedback with Drag and Drop Interaction

Hello,
I am trying to create a drag and drop interaction that will blend in a "thumbs up" or a "smiley" after each dragable has been correctly placed. The dragables in my interaction are medical terms and the drop sources are smart shape boxes. Each drop source has been assigned one correct answer, so that when the correct answer has been dragged a "success caption" appears immediately. The opposite occurs with an incorrecty dragged term. I figured, I need a "code" that
askes each dropable if it is the last one to be answered, and when answered correctly, will show the "smiley"
checks if all other dragables have been placed correctly
Since I lack the basic coding knowledge, I am having a hard time trying to figure this one out. Thanks for the help, again!

Hi Jay,
Yes, could create such a scenario, but the Submit button is not used in that case, because the feedback will appear immediately when a drag object has been placed on the target. Is that OK?
Here the work flow:
Besides the object, create all the feedback text containers that you need, correct and incorrect and label them so that they are easily recognizable. I labeled them FB_1, FB_2... because my objects were Drop1, Drop2...
Make those feedbacks initially invisible and group them in Gr_FB
Create the drag&drop in the normal way with one correct link
Select the target and in the in the D&D panel, click on the Accept button, change the settings like this
The advanced actions are pretty simple, standard, with two statements: Hide Gr_FB and Show FB_n (with the appropriate feedback container - you cannot use Shared actions in this dialog).
In the D&D panel, choose Infinite for the number of attempts and uncheck the Failure caption.
