Cannot change target sound in drag and drop to "no sound" once a default sound is selected in Captivate 8

I was trying out all the options for a drag and drop interaction in Captivate 8 and selected one of the default sounds for a target. I want to change it back to "no sound", but the selection never sticks. Is there something I'm missing or is this a "feature"?

When you go to the “Format” tab of the drag and drop properties, there is an option called “audio” (right below the “depth” option).
It has default sounds you can pick (sound1, sound2, sound3, and incorrect sound). Or you can browse to an audio file. If I select one of the default sounds, and then decide not to use any sound, it will not change to the “none” option. I have to delete the drag and drop interaction and start over.

1 Success Caption for Multiple Targets in a Drag and Drop Interaction

I see how I can add success captions to each target in a drag and drop interaction, but can you apply only 1 success caption multiple targets?

The boundaries of smartshapes were overlapping with each other. For example, the smartshape on 1st line was overlapping with the one on 2nd line. Due to this, every time you place the text caption "Investment" on the smartshape on 2nd line, it automatically moved to the smartshape on 1st line. As a result, you could never get the answer right, and hence you never saw the Success Caption.
Solution: Move the smartshapes away from each other (or resize them), and ensure that there are no overlaps.
2, The number of attempts for this interaction was set to Infinite. So, you have to play this until you get it right, but you could not get it right because of the reasons mention above. That is why you never saw the Failure Caption.
Solution: Clear the Infinite check box in the Action accordion and specify the required number of attempts. You will get the Failure Caption if you don't get it right in those attempts.
I just tested these solutions and they worked fine. Let me know if you still face any issues.

Specify multiple correct targets in a drag and drop?

Is it possible to specify more than one correct target in a drag and drop interaction (i am creating a quiz where the learner has to label a diagram of the urinary system and there are 2 kidney labels they have to correctly drop onto the diagram, however i would like either label to be correct if dragged onto the 2 kidneys - if i've explained this clearly?)

Sorry, overlooked this question. Lot can be solved from that window, glad you found out yourself.

There was a change in my desktop drag and drop post Lion update! Cannot drag or download to the desktop per se. It has to go into the desktop window in the finder now?

It is odd: pre update (the latest) I could download to my literal desktop, or drag and drop a photo from iPhoto, an mp3 to mail later from iTunes.....Now I can only do that from within the finder in the "desktop" window. In other words: If I download (I prefer to download onto my desktop rather than the download folder-window. I want to have control over ny desktop again (rather than the folder-window entitled "desktop"....Gratefully, Dennis

Rereading this question which I wrote after a long night makes me dizzy....But I don't know how to express it differently...I have lost my contol of the desktop you see on my iMac screen with all desktop responsibilities now only available via the finder window entitled "desktop".

How to play a sound on drag and drop?

I've been tasked with creating a drag and drop game for College, and I would like to make it so that when an object is picked up/clicked on, a small 'pop' sound will play, and when it is successfully placed on a target, a slightly different 'pop' sound will play.
I'm using ActionScript 2.0 on Flash CS5.5.
I've got the drag and drop done, I just need to add the sound counterpart. I've seen some tutorials, but they're way too vague for me.

Thanks a lot for that! Managed to get it to work finally.
Sorry for the late response, I've only just decided to get back to doing the work.

Moving answers in a quiz once they have been matched to a target in using drag and drop

Hi,
I am having a problem with some of my drag and drop quizzes that I'm wondering if anyone you might be able to help me with?
In some drag and drop quizzes I have created, using the Infosemantics drag and drop light widget in Captivate 5.5, I can move the answer after having matched it to a target but before submittting. Whereas in some quizzes I have created, the answers get stuck and do not let me move the answers after I have matched them to a target, even though I haven't submitted. This leaves me no choice but to clear all my answers and start again if I have made a mistake.
Please can you tell me how to enable the answers to move even after they have been placed on a target?

Emma,
Take a look at the troubleshooting tips on this page from the Infosemantics website:
http://www.infosemantics.com.au/adobe-captivate-widgets/drag-and-drop/troubleshooting-widg et-issues
Pay particular attention to the section entitled: "My drag and drop question works correctly sometimes, but not other times. "
From the appearance of your slide, it looks like you may have removed some of the components from the quiz slide that are necessary for it to function correctly. Try the test that this section of the troubleshooting suggests so that you can see if this is the case. If it turns out that you have deleted some items, you'll need to recreate your quiz slide to get them back again.
Hope this helps.

My drag images disappear when they are dropped on a correct drop target during the drag and drop interaction.

What am I missing. The opacity is at 100%. The drop target is a highlighted box from objects. I am using Captivate 8.

Hi there,
You might want to make sure your Depth setting is not set to Back instead of Front on your drop target(s).
The Depth setting is accessed via the Drag and Drop window/panel under Format setting while you have your drop target selected.
If your Depth setting is set to Back, especially if your opacity is set to 100% on your highlight box/drop target, your drag image would go behind your drop target giving the effect of disappearing behind your highlight box - especially if the drop target is larger than the drag image.

How to change the effect of drag and drop from MOVE to COPY in alv tree.

Hi,
I am using a tool in which now the behaviour on drag and drop is MOVE. I want to change it to COPY.
But I do not know which parameter needs to be set and where.
please help.
Regards,
Smita.

Hi,
Thanks for quick reply.
The code goes on like this
METHOD set_dd_behavior.
DATA: l_copysrc(1) TYPE c,
        l_movesrc(1) TYPE c,
        l_droptarget(1) TYPE c.
Set the Drag and Drop Flavors.
CREATE OBJECT dd_behavior.
READ TABLE reg_functions WITH KEY name_function = 'COPY'
TRANSPORTING NO FIELDS.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
    l_copysrc = 'X' .
ENDIF.
READ TABLE reg_functions WITH KEY name_function = 'CUT'
TRANSPORTING NO FIELDS.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
    l_movesrc = 'X' .
ENDIF.
READ TABLE reg_functions WITH KEY name_function = 'PASTE'
TRANSPORTING NO FIELDS.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
    l_droptarget = 'X' .
ENDIF.
CALL METHOD dd_behavior->add
EXPORTING
flavor = 'MOVE'
dragsrc = l_movesrc
droptarget = l_droptarget
effect = cl_dragdrop=>move.
CALL METHOD dd_behavior->add
EXPORTING
flavor = 'COPY'
dragsrc = l_copysrc
droptarget = l_droptarget
effect = cl_dragdrop=>copy.
CALL METHOD dd_behavior->get_handle
IMPORTING handle = dd_behavior_handle.
ENDMETHOD.
Here what changes needs to be done.
As I see once COPY is added and next time MOVE is added.
I am able to check because I am not able to edit while debugging the value of effect.
Please suggest.
Warm regards,
Smita.

How to change mouse cursor during drag and drop

Hi Guys,
Iam performing a Drag and drop from Table1(on top of the figure) to Table2(down in the figure).
see attached figure
http://www.upload-images.net/imagen/e80060d9d3.jpg
Have implemented the Drag and drop functionality using "Transferable" and "TransferHandler"using the java tutorial
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/examples/dnd/index.html#ExtendedDndDemo
Now My problem is that ,I want to make the 1st column in Table2(ie: Column2-0) not to accept any drops so that the cursor appears like a "No-Drop" cursor but with selection on the column cell during a drop action.
Also when I move my cursor between "column2-0" and "column2-1",want to to have the "No-Drop" and "Drop" cursor to appear depending on the column.
How can I achieve it using the TransferHandle class.Dont want to go the AWT way of implementing all the source and target listeners on my own.
Have overridded the "CanImort" as follows:
public boolean canImport(JComponent c, DataFlavor[] flavors) {
     JTable table = (JTable)c;
Point p = table.getMousePosition();
/* if(p==null)
     return false;
int selColIndex = table.columnAtPoint(p);
if(selColIndex==0)
     return false;*/
If I execute the above commented code,The "No-Drop" Icon appears in "column2-0",but no cell selection.Also If I move to "column2-1",which is the 1st column,Still get the "No-Drop" Icon there,also with no cell selection.
for (int i = 0; i < flavors.length; i++) {
if ((DataFlavor.stringFlavor.equals(flavors))) {
return true;
return false;
Thanks in advance.....
Edited by: Kohinoor on Jan 18, 2008 3:47 PM

If you found the selection column based on the mouse pointer, then based on the column, you can set the cursor pointer as any one as below :
setCursor(new Cursor(Cursor.DEFAULT_CURSOR));
setCursor(new Cursor(Cursor.HAND_CURSOR));

Well, I don't really understand the DnD interface so maybe my chess board example will be easier to understand and modify:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=57&threadID=518707
Basically what you would need to do is:
a) on a mousePressed you would need to create a new JLabel with the icon from the clicked label and add the label to the glass pane
b) mouseDragged code would be the same you just repaint the label as it is moved
c) on a mouseReleased, you would need to check that the label is now positioned over your "drop panel" and then add the label to the panel using the panels coordinates not the glass pane coordinates.

ICal alarm won't "drag and drop" with changed dates?

I frequently change appointments on my calendar from one date to the next, but the alarm time stays with the original date and time (so it never alarms or chimes on the new appointment date).
Any ideas on how to get it to change along with my drag and drop. In other calendar systems, if you have an appointment on the 14th with a 15 minute warning alarm, and then change the date to the 17th, the alarm would then chime 15 minutes ahead of your appointment on the 17th. I know I can manually change it, but this should be automatic.
Help?

I just set an event for the 24th with a "2 minute before" alarm. I then dragged it to today 11/19 and the alarm went off 2 minutes before the new event time. I.e., the alarm time was automatically updated. Now if the alarm were set with the "on date" option, I wouldn't expect that to be updated. I'm using iCal Version 4.0.3 (1388).

More than one correct target in Drag and Drop

Can an object have more than one correct target in a drag and drop? I have a question: Balance cost with _________ and ___________. The correct answers are interchangable. It doesn't matter which goes in which blank. Is it possible to tell Captivate that either would be a correct answer?

Unfortunately, no. I need to be able to drag sources to both targets. I
have two sources and two targets. It doesn't matter which source goes
into which target for this statement. So I need it to be correct no
matter which order the learner puts the answers.

Drag and drop in I tunes

I can drag and drop music from the computer to the I tunes library, but It won't let me drag and drop from the library to a new play list I created. Only to the I tunes DJ. How can I do that?

I am also having this frustrating problem with version 9.0.2. I cannot click and drag a song to any other folder, namely different playlist folders. Furthermore, cannot reorganize the songs by dragging and dropping. I have been adding songs to playlists by clicking the song +control and choosing "add to playlist" and sorting it that way.
I find that quitting itunes then restarting will fix this problem momentarily. I am forced to make any changes to song order right after restarting. Within a few minutes the same problems return. Super frustrating. Looking for any suggestions. Thanks.

Drag and drop to grid AS2

i want to create a grid where i can drag and drop items to it n save them, should i draw the grid myself and make a bunch of holders (as if i were making an inventory?) or is there a code i can use.
i am pretty good with as2 but i never took the time to really get into arrays. i come up with my own solutions, but i want to make this the right way.
for ex.sims build mode.
anyone interested in helping me out with my game also? Doesnt hurt to ask.

that doesn't sound like drag and drop.
but if you want to attach something to a clicked cell, just do it. flash will know which cell was clicked the same way it knows which button in a list of several buttons were clicked:
for(var i:Number=0;i<colNum;i++){
for(var j:Number=0;j<rowNum;j++){
var mc:MovieClip=this.attachMovie("cell_mc","cell_"+j+"_"i,this.nextHighestDepth());
mc.colNum=j;
mc.rowNum=i;
mc._x=j*mc._width;
mc._y=i*mc._height;
mc.onRelease=function(){
//do whatever

Drag and drop function to playlist

I cannot drag and drop songs from the library to my generated playlists. I can however, right click on the song and move it to the same playlist. Furthermore the songs that I have recently bought from itunes can be moved from the library to the playlist. The songs that cannot me moved via the drag and drop function were loaded from a flash drive because we bought a new pc and wanted to move the library. Any ideas would be appreciated.

After a lot of searching and no expectation of receiving an answer from Apple, I reverted back to v10.3. This gave me back the ability to drag and drop to playlists and my ipod.
Good luck to anyone else out there having this issue.

Cannot change target sound in drag and drop to "no sound" once a default sound is selected in Captivate 8
