Best approach to work with drag & drop functionality

I m new to java technology & want to implement drag & drop functionality with java web application.so, Please suggest me the best way or best framework or any api to implement drag & drop functionality with java web application.

In that case, you're most likely looking for a JavaScript solution. In spite of the similar name, JavaScript has nothing to do with Java.
You may want to Google for "javascript drag and drop".

What´s the best approach to work with Excel, csv files

Hi gurus. I got a question for you. According to your experience what's the best approach to work with Excel or csv files that have to be uploaded through DataServices to you datawarehouse.
Let's say your end-user, who is not a programmer, creates a group of 4 excel files with different calculations in a monthly basis, so they can generate a set of reports from their datawarehouse once the files have been uploaded to tables in your DWH. The calculations vary from month to month. The user doesn't have a front-end to upload the excel files directly to Data Services. The end user needs to keep a track of which person uploaded the files for a determined month.
1. The end user should place their 4 excel files in a shared directory that will be seen by DataServices.
2. DataServices will execute certain scheduled job that will read the four files and upload them to the Datawarehouse at a determined time, lets say at 9:00pm.
It makes me wonder... what happens if the user needs to present their reports immediately so they can´t wait until 9:00pm. Is it possible for the end user to execute some kind of action (out of the DataServices Environment) so DataServices "could know" that it has to process those files right now, instead of waiting for the night schedule?
Is there a way that DS will track who was the person who uploaded those files?
Would it be better to build a front-end for the end user so they can upload their four files directlyto the datawarehouse?
Waiting for your comments to resolve this dilemma
Best Regards
Erika

Hi,
There are functions in DS that captures the input files automatically. You could use file_exists() or wait_for_file() option to do that. Schedule the job to run every certain minute and if the file exists then run. This could be done by using a certain file name with date and timestamp etc or after running move the old files to archive and DS wait for new files to show up.
Check this - Selective Reading and Postprocessing - Enterprise Information Management - SCN Wiki
Hope this helps.

Drag & Drop Functionality Doesn't Work in External SWF?

Hi all,
I'm currently a TA for a Flash course at my school. We're using AS 2.0 and working with external SWFs.
I think this might be pretty simple to remedy. Well, at least I'm hoping!
A student is having trouble with drag & drop functionality when it is used in an external SWF. Basically, in our drag & drop section, we have a sheet of paper ("paper" MC) and an object we drag into it ("object" MC). When the object is released in the paper area, we go to frame 2 of "paper" MC, which consequently has an animation.
This works fine and dandy in said drag & drop section, but once the drag & drop section is loaded into our main SWF via a MC placeholder, the drag & drop functionality stops working.
Here is the URL to the drag & drop section by itself:
http://www.phayzed.com/flashkit/drag_for_animation.swf
and here is the URL to the main swf, which loads the drag & drop SWF into a movieclip and causes it to work incorrectly:
http://www.phayzed.com/flashkit/main.swf
Now here is the code on the draggable object ("object" MC):
on (press) {
        startDrag (this, true);
on (release) {
        stopDrag ();
        if (this._droptarget == "/paper") {
                _parent.paper.gotoAndStop(2);
                _parent.object._visible=false;
If any more info is needed, I'm willing to upload both FLA files.   Although, something tells me that this is a simple issue to resolve.
Thanks a lot for any help!!!
Cheers
T

with as2 you must convert that antiquated as1 code:
on (press) {
        startDrag (this, true);
on (release) {
        stopDrag ();
        if (eval(this._droptarget) == _parent.paper) {
                _parent.paper.gotoAndStop(2);
                _parent.object._visible=false;

Import swf file with drag & drop action

Hello!
I created a flash animation with drag & drop.
I imported the swf into Captivate 3, but when I publish the
project, the animation don't work.
Can you suggest me some workaround to understand the problem?
Best regards

Hi kpurple and welcome to our community
When you published the project, did you ensure to copy all
the associated files? Normally the added .SWF files exist as
external files that need to exist in the same folder as your
Captivate files.
Cheers... Rick

What is the best way to work with AVCHD 720 24p footage in FCE4.1?

Hi I have a Panasonic HMC-150 and I've been shooting 720 24p footage at 21 mbps transfer rate.
I was wondering what is the best way to work with this material in FCE 4.1? I see that in the easy set up menu they only have the option of 1440X1080i at 50 or 60 fps or 1920X1080i at 50 or 60 fps.
Also in the rates drop down menu there is only 50 or 29.97.
So I was wondering which is the best choice for 720 24p footage and will it look alright in any of them? Also is it possible to customize these settings?
And finally can you work with faster transfer rates (21mbps) in FCE?

Yikes, this is going to be tricky since FCE does not support native 24p editing.
The work around for some of us is that AVCHD material that is 24p is often recorded to disc at 60i using telecine, in which case it can be editing at 29.97 frames per second, and then detelecined afterward for final export at 23.98 fps. The problem is that I think your camera actually records real 24p - not 24p packed into 60i. When you import the material from the camera what does QuickTime report the framerate as?

What is the best way to work with mixed media in 1080 timeline?

Hi there,
I have a project shot mostly in 1080 24p but a bit of 720 24p and 4x3 30p footage.
What is the best way to work with this mixed media?
Thanks!
Steven

Hi Shane,
Ok just to recap (thanks for being patient by the way)...I have put some questions in here...feel free to write in caps to respond and we'll put this baby to rest!
1) I will work in a 1080p FCP sequence, correct?
2) HD 1080p footage captured as applepro res hq I will leave as is and work with?
3) HD 720p footage which was captured as applepro res hq. Can I just drop in 1080 timeline and let FCP do its work? Or should i run through compressor, if so what setting shall I submit it too?
4) I dont have a budget for an external hardware to convert SD to HD...should I capture my SD Beta through Final Cut and just leave and let FCP do its work? Or should I run through compressor? If so what setting shall I submit it too?
5) For for my master sequence in FCP am I not using an I-Frame format apple pro res if I am using my apple pro res hq 1080 footage as my formatted sequence? I am not sure what you mean by GOP?
6) I also found some 60p footage 1080p XDCAM compressor shot with the same XDCAM camera. I put in the 1080p 24p timeline but it was pretty choppy...any ideas of this conform?
Thanks very much for all your help it has gone along way,
Steven
Saying what CODECS you are working with was my question. 1080, 720, 4:3...really says nothing. There are a dozen 1080 codecs, another dozen 720 codecs, and nearly 100 4:3 formats.
Best to capture all the footage to one uniform codec.
Second best is to work with one format and let FCP conform the rest to that...IF and only IF that format is an I-Frame format like ProRes. GOP formats as master sequence formats cause TONS of issues.
What I'd do is work 1080 ProRes, just add the 720p footage (Use Compressor to convert it if you didn't have a lot, but if you had a lot, just add it), but I'd capture all the SD 4:3 footage via a Kona 3 or Matrox MXO2 as 1080 ProRes. Hardware conversion of SD to HD is much better than anything FCP can do. AE might do good as well. But then use Compressor to convert 29.97 footage captured (you can't convert 29.97 to 23.98 when you capture) to get to 23.98.

Strange problem with drag&drop!!

hello i hope u can help me.
i have a strange problem but not like the other users with drag&drop in Leopard..
mine is not exactly like this:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1198982&tstart=3538
i can hold left click and move files but when i need to "drop" them at the .app's window the app rejects the file back! (some of the applications not all!)
what i mean in examples is:
i cannot drag&drop anything in the VLC's player window but i can inside the vlc's "controller" window
i cannot drag&drop a picture in preview
i cannot drag&drop any file in photoshop's new file/empty canvas
i cannot drag&drop a mp3 file in itunes but i can drag&drop a full album folder(only in playlist,not in the player window)!
and i can describe more to show u that it's not about vlc or preview or PS problem, but finder's/leopard problem.
(i thought in the 1st, that it's vlc's problem and i downloaded a lot of versions!)
all the other programs works well, for example i can drag&drop a video to final cut or motion
i can do the same in iMovie (at the space it says"drag&drop media here etc)
and of course i can drag&drop files to desctop,hard disks etc.
i can copy/paste text etc (i can copy/paste texti can copy/paste texti can copy/paste texti can copy/paste text)
i am trying to give you an idea, suggest me what else should i try in order to focus where exactly the problem is!
i hope u give me a solution cause drag&drop is usefull!
thank you
in order to help u, i will describe what i tried so far:
1)repair permissions
2)trash com.apple.finder
3)terminal solution like this: (didn't worked)
sudo su -
cd /
rmdir tmp +*(rmdir: tmp: No such file or directory)*+
ln -s tmp /private/tmp

hello and thanks for your reply
but why you quote only the part of VLC?
One thing at a time. Occam's razor.
and why u believe this is normal?
i am sure that VLC can drag & drop subtitles or the movie in the player window.
and when i say sure, i mean 100%
I disagree. I have tried this since reading your post, on all my VLC versions. It does not work.
You can, however drop a movie onto the VLC icon in the dock. That works fine.
RealPlayer accepts a file dropped on it. I just checked it.
Not all apps accept a file on their output window. Usually only the input window.
i started my windows bootcamp partition before and i saw this works.
and i remember trying VLC in tiger a lot of years before, this was ok.
and yes of course it would be also normal to drop a picture in the photoshop canvas.
so what is not normal here is my problem, if u can help i'm happy if you cannot please don't confuse it more
(sorry if i sound "unclear", english is not my 1st languange)
I will check VLC next time I run Tiger and let you know.

What is the best way to work with Word documents in The InDesign CS4???

I work in Microsoft Word 2007 and all my documents have *.doc format.
What is the best way to work with Word documents in InDesign CS4???
David Blatner says to avoid copying and pasting text from Word instead of placing it (Ctrl+D).
How about pasting RTF or Text Document???
I want to make book's layout in ID CS4 and its main feature is that there is the left page with text and the right - with graphics.
So, as I understand to place the text on each page I must create for example 70 Word documents and place each item on 70 left pages???
It loks like wasting time. I sthere another way of making such layout??? What kind????

It's best to place any text.
You can have all of your text in one file and use auto-flow to add threaded text frames and pages as required (Hold down the Shift key when you click the loaded text cursor), but it's a little non-standard to have the thread only on one side of the spread from the auto-flow perspective, so you'll have to set up properly.
This is one case where a master text frame will work to your advantage. On your master page spread, add a text frame to the left page, but not to the right (or at least not threaded to one on the right -- for some other project you might actually want two independent text threads). Hold the loaded cursor over a frame on the left side of a document page and auto-flow. ID will add new spreads as necessary, but only put the text on the left side.

Best way to work with interlaced and progressive clips in the same timeline

I´m shooting with Sony MC-50E camera in 1920x1080, 50i. When importing with Log & Transfer I can work with ProRes 422 files in interlaced mode. I have to mix the footage with video screencapture which is progressive (ProRes 422). The final videos are for web only so it should end up as progressive H264 videos. I´m getting good result if exporting to H264, 1024x576 with deinterlacing enabled, but exporting to full HD gives typical interlaced lines in the picture. How can I avoid this and what is the best solution for working with both interlaced and progressive clips?

Deinterlace in Compressor using Frame Controls, Best settings. You can reconnect the deinterlaced files to your project, if you've already edited, but you may need to copy and paste the clips in your sequence to a new 25p timeline, then Remove Attributes, Basic Motion.
When you're ready to export your sequence, use Quicktime Movie, Current Settings, Self-contained. Take that file to Compressor to transcode back to h.264.
The Apple T.V. preset is very good.

How to Rearrange components using Drag Drop functionality

Hi,
Is it possible to re-arrange the components inside the form using drag drop functionality in RCF?
There are 3/4 section headers in my screen, user can re-arrange them.
But as per the RCF document it says, "Drag Drop functionality allows users to drag the value of one component and drop it on to another". It dosent say any thing about component drag-drop.

Hi,
there is a componentDragSource element that you use for this. However, persisting the change of location is not handled automatically. I didn't try this, but I assume that using the component drag option gives you access to the UI component itself so you can nest it in another container
Frank
Ps.: the drag event always givey you access to the component. This componentDragSource however shows the component when dragging, which is a slightly better indicator if you plan to re-arrange items

Best practices for working with large placed bitmap images?

Hey all,
I need some advice on the best way to approach building these files. I've been working on some banners that are very large: 3 x 7 feet.
Each banner has a simple vector graphic treatment at the top and bottom (rectangle with a different colored rule on top, and vector logo) and a small amount of text, just a URL and a headline.The headline is type (not converted to outlines) and usually has some other effect applied to it, say a drop shadow or outer glow. Under these graphics is a full bleed image. The placed images need to be 150ppi at actual size, so they're honking big, sometimes up to 2GB. Once the layouts are approved, they have to go to a vendor for output.
The Illustrator docs are really large, and I've read in other threads how to combat that (PDF compatibility, raster settings). But even still, does anyone have any insight into the best way to deal with these things? The dimensions are large, and then the images are large, and it just makes for lots of looking at the spinning ball of death...
If it were me, I'd build them in InDe, but the vector graphics need to be edited for each one, and I so don't like to do that in InDe unless forced. To me, it's still ultimately a page layout app, not a drawing app. (Old school here.)
FYI, our machines are all MBPs with 8G ram and the latest Intel Core 2 Duo chips, 2.66 and 2.8GHz. If we keep the files local (as opposed to working on the server) it should be fairly zippy... No?
Any advice is appreciated, thanks!

You can get into memory trouble with very large placed pdf files. Tiffs too.
This has to do with the preview, which contains much more information than you need for working with.
On the other hand if you place EPSs and take care not to turn on overprint preview you can get away with huge files.
If you do turn on overprint preview your machine will slow down a lot and the file may become totally unmanageable.
Compare this with to InDesign where you can control the quality of the preview. A hi-res preview will slow you down and most often you don't need it anyway.
I was working (in Illie) the other day on much larger files than you mention – displays for whole walls – and had some considerable trouble until I reverted to the old EPS format. They say it's dying but it ain't dead yet .

Windows Storage Server 2008 - unzip with drag & drop from Windows 7 client fails

Hello.
As i asked this question in German and got no answer so i try it in English now.
I have the following problem:
We have a Windows SBS 2008, where we store our files. If somebody opens a ZIP-file on a network share from a Windows 7 Client (64 Bit) it is possible to drag & drop the content (multiple files) to a directory. So far everything works as expected.
We now have an additional Windows Storage Server 2008 integrated in our domain (Buffalo Tera Station WS-QV8/R5), where we also store files. If somebody opens the same ZIP-file on a network share of this server from a Windows 7 Client and tries to drag &
drop the content the following happens:
1. only one file is extracted and to display the file a refresh of the explorer view is needed.
2. when the drag & drop action is repeated a second file is extracted
Not alle files are extracted and there is no error message or indication why this happens.
The behaviour is reproducible from another Windows 7 Client (32 Bit).
If we try to drag & drop the files from the ZIP-file on the Windows Storage Server network sahre to a directory on the SBS network share all files are extracted correctly.
On the Windows Storage Server itself all files are extracted without problmems. Therefore it must be a problem with the combination of Windows Storage Server und Windows 7 Client accessing the files via network shares.
Are there any ideas where this problem could be located? Has anybody the same phenomenon and maybe a solution for it?
Thanks in advance

Hi Michael,
Thank you for clarifying the issue for us.
I am trying to involve someone familiar with this topic to further look at this issue. There might be some time delay. Appreciate your patience.

Best way to work with large image sequences

Hello,
Im relatively new to Adobe CS4. I am learning to create detailed animations with another software that produces thousands of still images. (I normally save them as .png, 720 x 480, 29.97 fps) I spent the money to buy CS4 becuase I was told this was what I needed to turn those images into video, add titles, captions, credits, etc. So far, I've been useing PremierPro to import the image sequences and add titles. But when I export the sequences, the quality is crap. I've tried all combinations of exporting formats, but even when I try to go for the greatest quality, my files are 100 MB large, and the quality is still crap (nice smooth lines are jagged, and details are blurry and pixilated, even with the titles I added). Can someone tell me how I should be working with these still image sequences so that I can retain the best quality while keeping the file size large. These videos are just played on local computer systems, not over a network or on DVDs. I dont know if I should be bringing the shorter clip sequences into AfterEffects and somehow exporting those. I just dont know. But nothing is working for me. Help!
Nikki

Hello!,
The output frame size has so far been the same as my rendering size (720 x 480), but I's just trying to get the best quality, if I need to render larger I can. Delivery has so far just been video, no audio, although when I get better at this I will record narrations of the animations and put that in. Playback is intended only for computers. Every once in a while, it is requested in a format that will be played over our network, but I wanted to worry about that later.
The preset I chose for the sequence was the DV-NTSC Standard 32kHz
The project/sequence settings are:
General
     Editing Mode: DV NTSC
     Timebase: 29.97 fps
Video
     Frame size: 720, 480 4:3
     Pixel Aspect Ratio: D1/DV NTSC (0.9091)
     Display Format: 30 fps Non-Drop-Frame Timecode
Audio
     doesnt matter
Video Previews
     Preview File Format: NTSC DV
     Codec: DV NTSC
     Maximum Bit Depth
Hope that was the information you requested.
