Creating a file that has drag and drop feature

Hi,
I'm working on a memory experiment and I want to create a file with a drag and drop feature.  I set an image as layer 1, and several images as layer 2. I would like to create a file where people can drag and drop on of the images from layer two onto a slot in layer one.  Ideally I would like it to remain stable if the place an image in the slot (meaning if they try to place one of the images from layer 2 into layer 1, I want it to allign perfectly).
Help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Check if using the Smart Guides snapping is something that could be useful for this. If the size of the objects are exactly the same the snapping is relatively easily when trying to put one object on the place of another. If the sizes are not the same then the center point indicator should be used as a target which require a little bit more effort. However enabling the Smart Guides is not a file feature, the user has to turn it on/off in Illustrator affecting all open documents.

  • Drag and Drop feature not working

    I'm using a Mac Book Pro running OS X version 10.7.5 and I find that fairly often, when I click and drag something (anything) that the mouse will not drop or release the item, and the only way I can fix it is to force quit the program.  I have been into the system preferences and tried to adjust those features to no avail.  This has been accuring for almost a year now.  I find that it does this most often after a reboot.  For now, if I reboot, I cannot drag and drop anything for about an hour, then after that, the drag and drop feature seems to work just fine.  Help!
    Side info:  I am also using BootCamp with Windows 7, if that helps
    Thanks, looking forward to some good advise!

    Try disabling and then re-enabling the Helvetica font. Sometimes that's all it takes.

    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

  • Now that I have home share my drag and drop feature doesn't work to create playlists

    Now with Home Share there are two subsets of playlists.  One is on the hard drive of the acutual computer where the iTunes originated.  Once I am at a Home Share computer I cannot use the playlist feature.  I can CREATE a playlist and name it, but the drag and drop feature does not work for songs which are not directly located on this hard drive.  I can, for some reason, attach an iPod and make a list over on that, but that is all. 

    Because IE is running in a different user context. You cannot drag and drop anything from Explorer into a different user context. This isn't a "SharePoint" issue, as it relates to any application run as a different user.

  • Does SAP ECL viewer has drag and drop functionality...

    Hi,
    Does ECL viewer has drag and drop functionality for example we can drag and drop file from windows sever to SAP. So that it can be used later on using BDN.
    Thanks.

    Implement this program,  it is a cut/paste solution.  Again, you must have the ECL component installed on your SAPgui.

    Now drap a PDF file from the left container, and drop in the right side.  Slick, right?
    The ECL doesn't handle every file type,  but PDF works good.

  • Files Not Founds (Drag and Drop)

    Hi everyone,
    I have a 32gig Playbook, which was working just fine until I updated last night (the one with the video chat release). I can no longer view documents (like pdfs) and videos that I drag and drop into the Playbook. When I say I can't view, I mean the files don't even show up for me to click on like it normally does.
    I have tried it on both Mac and PC, and it worked on both prior to the update. So, does anyone have a solution or an explaination as to why this is happening?
    Your help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    MisterClyde

    Hello MisterClyde and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    When transferring the file, are you using the Desktop Software? Do you get confirmation the transfer has completed?
    Not sure if you have tried the method listed in KB26068, but have a look. I was able to tranfser data using the new version and the transfer did complete for me.

  • Drag and drop feature is not working in Maverick?

    what can i do when the Drag and Drop feature is not working in my I Mac Using Maverick 10.9.4, it will not do it at all i must do copy and paste.
    reading from earlier forums this has been a problem in earlier versions for the mac.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Dreamweaver CS3 Drag and Drop feature

    I have been trying to create  two links on my index.html page in Dreamweaver CS3.  However, after I have cut and pasted a whole image in place of a three part image my drag and drop feature will not turn off.  Each time I attempt to highlight the text on the page by dragging the cursor over the text the entire image moves.

  • How to disable drag and drop feature for a document library?

    Hi
    How can I disable drag and drop feature for a document library? Do I have an option to disable it from the SharePoint's feature set?
    Or can I disable it using a script? If so, how?
    Regards
    Paru

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you want to disable drag and drop feature for a document library.
    Drag and drop in SharePoint 2013 is a feature that depends on HTML5, which requires version of browser, SharePoint by default doesn’t has feature to disable or enable this.
    You can try disabling the drag and drop feature by disabling an add-on in Internet Explorer, or
    using Internet Explorer 9 or lower.
    Here is a similar thread for your reference:

  • Drag and Drop Feature is not working

    I have a mid 2012 MacBook Pro running 10.8.3 and all of a sudden the drag-and-drop feature isn't working. I was dragging photos from my job's website and adding them to a folder, but after about three photos in, it stopped working and no matter what I do it won't drop into the folder. How can I solve this?

    Can you drag anything into the folder, such as files from another folder?

  • Drag and Drop Feature in Flash

    I have multiple elements on my artboard that include the Drag and Drop feature allowing for the elements to be placed on top (overlapping) one another. When the third or fourth element is selected the previous element is forced behind its previous element. Is there anyway to keep the previously placed elements from repositioning, just keeping them stationery. Below is the code applied to the button instance which is inside of its respective movie clip.
    on (press, dragOver) {
              startDrag(_root.Element2);
    on (release, rollOut, dragOut) {
              stopDrag();
    on (press, release, dragOver, dragOut) {
              _root.x +=9;
              _root.Element2.swapDepths(_root.x);

    Try...
    Ring2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, fl_ClickToDrag_2);
    function fl_ClickToDrag_2(event:MouseEvent):void
              Ring2.startDrag();
              this.setChildIndex(Ring2, numChildren-1)
    or...
    Ring2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, fl_ClickToDrag_2);
    function fl_ClickToDrag_2(event:MouseEvent):void
              Ring2.startDrag();
              addChild(Ring2);
    You do not have to write unique drag/drop functions for each ring.  You can have a generic one that is shared by all...
    Ring1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, fl_ClickToDrag); 
    Ring2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, fl_ClickToDrag); 
    Ring3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, fl_ClickToDrag);
    function fl_ClickToDrag(event:MouseEvent):void
        MovieClip(event.currentTarget).startDrag();
        addChild(MovieClip(event.currentTarget));
        stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropRing);
    function dropRing(evt:MouseEvent):void
        stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropRing);
        stopDrag();
