Drag and drop dont pause in a published video

Hi, i have a Project with 3 slides (not responsive) the second one is with drag and drop, it works fine when i preview in browser but when i publish it as a video it dont pause in drag and drop. When i publish it as html5 it works fine but not as video.

Hi there
Please define "publish as video". Do you mean a video you might upload to YouTube? If so, that will never ever work. Video is just video and no interactivity is possible except what YouTube itself offers as a layer above the video.
Cheers... Rick

Captivate 8 drag and drop interaction

Hello,
just having a look at the new captivate 8 and when i try and make a drag and drop question i go to the normal place of window> drag and drop. but the problem is the drag and drop option is grayed out - could this be because i am only running it on a trial copy?

Hi, I'm evaluating Captivate 8 and had the same question as SuzySu.
If my client wants a drag and drop activity, would I need to create a non-responsive project and because being able to view on mobile is also required, would I need to create a separate responsive project without drag and drop? If so, when publishing the projects, would the proper project be automatically selected based on their viewing platform?
Also, is there a list off all interactions that will or will not work with a responsive theme?
Thank you!

Drag and drop videos onto iphone

Basically, I can't for some reason drag and drop videos onto my iphone 4. I manually manage my music and vids, songs I can drag and drop, but when it comes to videos, nothing happens. I have converted my videos to mp4 h264 format as required and still no progress. I cant think of what to do now. Someone help!!!
I'm using windows xp.
thanks!!

Now I tried downloading other albums that are in my library but not on my phone and those didn't work either. Could it be my phone or itunes that's not working?

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.

CP 6.1 Drag and drop interaction - can it be edited/viewed/published by someone using CP6?

Hi all,
I am reasonably new to Captivate. I have a subscription to Captivate 6.1 which now has the new Drag and Drop wizard.
My question is:
If I include a drag and drop interaction in my .cptx file, save it and then give the file to person X to review/edit, but they DO NOT have the drag and drop feature in their version of Captivate (they have Captivate 6), can they:
a: view it?
b. edit it?
c. even if they can't view or edit, could they still publish the file from their end and the drag and drop will work fine and not be affected?
Thanks!
Veronica

Hi Veronica,
Although there is now compatibility between 6.01 and 6.1, which means that your colleagues will be able to open your file, I don't believe they'll be able to edit the interaction at all. And of course publishing will not be possible either. Because I have still 6.01 installed on my laptop and 6.1 on my desktop PC, I can try it out if you want to be totally sure, but for the moment I'm in college and only have laptop with me.

Cp8 Drag and Drop won't pause the interactions

Hi Everyone,
I created a drag and drop interaction slide. Once I preview it, it's pausing fine after 1.5 seconds as defined in the actions tab, under others.
As soon as I drag a drag source to a drop target the slide continues to play and pauses again after a few seconds. The 2nd time I drag any other drag source the slide continues to play and moves to the next slide before the interaction in complete.
Help!

Hi,
There can be two possibilities for your case.
1.You must be using the On drop actions in your interactions. If these actions are simple actions they move the play head of the movie, so here you need to have "Advanced actions" to maintain the playhead instead of simple actions.(As Lieve mentioned above)
Or
2.You must have multiple answers set up for the interaction.(i.e You must have set the "many to one" mapping wrongly in the Correct answers dialog box).
(Adobe Captivate Help | Drag-and-drop interaction (Cp 7) see Map multiple answer sets to drop targets section in the help page.)
If these are not the settings of your interaction let us know. You can share your snapshots of your Dnd settings here.

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,
Wendy

Does the Drag and Drop in 6.1 publish as HTML5?

Is the new drag and drop functionality in the Captivate 6 update HTML5 compatible?

Yes, Nimmy is correct.
That functionality works fine with HTML 5 output.
You can also check Window>HTML 5 tracker, for unsupported HTML 5 content, and also you can preview the project in HTML 5 browser.
Thanks.

Flash Drag and Drop Template in Captivate. *HELP*

Good morning.
I am attempting to use the drag and drop learning interaction
that comes pre-packaged with Flash CS3 and import it into Captivate
for use in a Captivate based e-learning exercise.
I create the drag and drop just fine in Flash, and it looks
perfect when I publish it in Flash, etc.
When I attempt to use the EXACT same SWF in Captivate,
however, it does not work. I can move the drags around the screen,
but they will not "drop" where they are supposed to.
Thinking maybe I broke the template, I went ahead and just
imported it 100% unchanged from Flash into Captivate (without me
messing around with it changing things around) and it does the
exact same thing.
I have successfully used my own homemade flash "widgets" in
Captivate, to include like click and reveal type interactions...for
whatever reason, though, I can't get this one to work, even though
I know it works perfectly in Flash.
The .swf file was developed using ActionScript 2.0 in Flash
and I tried publishing it with Flash 9 and Flash 8 as the setting,
both do the same thing.
Help!!!?
Thanks.
Rob

Hi R
Note that the Border simply adds space to the project so the
playback controls aren't covering part of your movie. Assuming you
want that to continue AND have a playback control, you might resize
the project so the playback control is included in the main movie
as well as being placed in an area that doesn't possibly obscure
any screen activity.
Cheers... Rick

Drag and Drop of cell content between 2 tables

Hi Guys,
Iam into implementing drag and drop of cell contents between 2 different tables,say Table1 and Table2.(Iam not dragging and dropping rows or cells,Just copying the content of one cell to another).
Have extended the java tutorial class "TableTransferHandler" and "StringTransferHandler" under http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/examples/dnd/index.html#ExtendedDndDemo to satisfy my needs.
The drag is enabled for Table1 and table2 as follows.
jTable1.setDragEnabled(true);
jTable1.setTransferHandler(new TableTransferHandler());
jTable2.setDragEnabled(true);
jTable2.setTransferHandler(new TableTransferHandler());
Dont be taken aback with the code I have put.It just to show what I have done..
My questions are put at the end of the post..
//String Transfer Handler class.
public abstract class StringTransferHandler extends TransferHandler {
    protected abstract String exportString(JComponent c);
    protected abstract void importString(JComponent c, String str);
    protected abstract void cleanup(JComponent c, boolean remove);
    protected Transferable createTransferable(JComponent c) {
        return new StringSelection(exportString(c));
    public int getSourceActions(JComponent c) {
        return COPY_OR_MOVE;
    public boolean importData(JComponent c, Transferable t) {
        if (canImport(c, t.getTransferDataFlavors())) {
            try {
                String str = (String)t.getTransferData(DataFlavor.stringFlavor);
                importString(c, str);
                return true;
            } catch (UnsupportedFlavorException ufe) {
            } catch (IOException ioe) {
        return false;
    protected void exportDone(JComponent c, Transferable data, int action) {
        cleanup(c, action == MOVE);
    public boolean canImport(JComponent c, DataFlavor[] flavors) {
          JTable table = (JTable)c;
         int selColIndex = table.getSelectedColumn();
        for (int i = 0; i < flavors.length; i++) {
            if ((DataFlavor.stringFlavor.equals(flavors))&& (selColIndex !=0)) {
return true;
return false;
}//TableTransferHandler classpublic class TableTransferHandler extends StringTransferHandler {
private int[] rows = null;
private int addIndex = -1; //Location where items were added
private int addCount = 0; //Number of items added.
protected String exportString(JComponent c) {
JTable table = (JTable)c;
rows = table.getSelectedRows();
StringBuffer buff = new StringBuffer();
int selRowIndex = table.getSelectedRow();
int selColIndex = table.getSelectedColumn();
String val = table.getValueAt(selRowIndex,selColIndex).toString();

return buff.toString();

//int index = target.getSelectedRow();
int row = target.getSelectedRow();
int column = target.getSelectedColumn();
target.setValueAt(str, row, column);
protected void cleanup(JComponent c, boolean remove) {
}Now I want to put in the following functionality into my program...
[1]prevent dragging and dropping text in to the same table.That means I dont want to drag a cell content from Table1 and drop to another cell in Table1. Want to drag and drop cell content only from Table1 to Table2.
[2]Change cursor on a un-defined Target. That means how to prevent a drag from a particular column in Table1.Also how to prevent a drop to a particular column in Table2. How to change the cursor to a "NO-DRAG" cursoror "NO-DROP" cursor.
Could it be done using Drag Source Listener and drop Target Listener?.
If yes,How can these listeners attached to the table and how to do it?
If No,How Could it be done?
[3]Want to change the background colour of the cell being dragged and also the background colour of the target cell where the drop is made...
[4]Is there any out of the box way to make an undo in the target cell(where drop was made) so that the old cell value is brought back.
How can I extend my code to take care of the above said things.
Any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated.....

Illustrator Default PDF, if open in Acro Pro, drag and drop other .ai files, will they also....

Hi! I'm trying to archive (for myself and others for easy access) about 50 fairly complex .ai files in a single Illustrator Default PDF and maintain editability and preserve layer and grouping integrity for every separate file, and, i'm probably going to have to do this hundreds of times (at least!) in the future. Once i save the initial first pdf file through Illustrator (wish didn't even have to do this, but seems no way to do in Bridge), then open the resulting pdf w Acrobat Pro, can i then just select an entire folder's worth of ai files in Bridge, drag and drop them into the pages panel and still have the dragged and dropped files also preserve all their AI info and layer/ group integrity? An if not, thinking if not based on 20 similar experiments, what's a fast way to do this. Doing this manually each time: opening each file in AI then saving as AI pdf, then combining and arranging them all after the fact, would be, well, fairly effed in terms of time, carpal tunnel, arthritis etc. Experimented w Bridge PDF Output batching (terrible rasterized lo-res results, but great for its intended purpose) and just dragging and dropping into Acrobat (lose complicated layer names and info, all flattened to single layer). Any help most appreciated, and as i do not have regular access to das interwebs (i live on a boat) would appreciate and heed gentle admonishment if i've misposted or broached any community etiquette here. I've researched this as well as i can but can't find anything efficient/ elegant not involving InDesign, and even then the details are skimpy. Thank You! Getting mentally exhausted and not a little loopy. Keep in mind had to teach myself both Illustrator, Acrobat etc with access to the very limited offline help menus (the boat), so a complex answer involving learning InDesign would be learning curve can't even imagine with everything else struggling to do. But if you're willing to babystep diagram it out for me or can find me a link that does i will not only be eternally grateful but will do my durndest to master it and pass it on....Thanks Again! lil mc szpf
PS If it helps I'm running the diligent dogged dusty beloved workhorse CS4 Design Premium on 27" monitor 2010 Mac (OS X 10.6.8), and took advantage of rare housesitting net access to install all most recent updates of everything, i'm barely competent w AI, PS, BR and been tackling Acrobat for past couple of months now....

im glad that somebody is atleast trying. perhaps i need to be more clear.
i will step by step describe the issue in detail.
1) i open an email that contains an attachment .dxf or .pdf
2) i click on the attachment shown in the email and aprompt comes up asking if i want to open or save the attachment.
3) i select save. (by default it saves to a downloads folder. but i have also chosen to use other folders (when i did that it wouldnt save them)
4) i highlight the downloads arrow on the right top side of my browser and click it
5) it pulls down a list of the files that i USED to be able to click and drag onto my destop, or anyplace i chose
6) used to be when i clicked and held the left mouse button down on top of a file of my choosing it would highlight and as i began to drag, a ghost image would appear of the file i was dragging. showing a (/) symbol next to it showing i couldnt drop the file within the browser and a + simbol showing that i could drop the file when the file was hovering over a place where i could drop the file such as my desktop or other folder. now, when i click and hold on the file.... I DONT get anything. when i drag. nothing follows. while i am "dragging" in the area that is my browser, i get the pointy finger icon. as soon as i enter an area where i could have dropped the file as before, i get my standard cursor arrow.
its really as if the drag and drop feature just dosent work IN FIREFOX.
i can drag and drop files all day long everyplace else.

Drag and Drop to photo page creates links, doesn't replace placeholders

I searched the discussions for quite a while and didn't find much similar to this topic. Basically, drag and drop is no longer working on my iWeb and my photo grids will not accept pictures to replace the placeholder (sample) photos. I will try to explain the whole problem in detail.
I am a new iWeb user, and I set up a page without any problems at first. Yet when I returned in iWeb to add another photo page today, I have had a lot of trouble. I used the template Photo Page and opened the Inspector and the Media Viewer to drag photos onto the placeholder photos, as the Help pages and tutorials show. Yet when I drag the picture file from the Media Viewer into the photo grid, only a small text box appears that sets up a hyperlink to the photo file on my computer. I've tried messing with the inspector, seeing what the difference is between the placeholder photos' settings and the files I'm trying to add.
The only differences I can see are: in the Link Inspector's pane I can tell the program is at first making a hyperlink to the file instead of displaying the photo (yet disabling the hyperlink doesn't change anything); also,
In the Graphic Inspector pane that appears when I have selected a general area in the photo grid, at the top the "Style" , "Layout" and "Caption" options appear, along with a display of a sample photo style. When I click on one of the rectangles that appears with the file I am trying to drag and drop, I have only the "fill" option, which has "none" selected. Fiddling with the options does not get the photo to appear.
I can see the blue grid surrounding the placeholder photos, so the photo grid exists. I have also tried using different templates' photo pages, but they all have the same problem. I also tried creating an album in iPhoto and importing it to iWeb, but only two photos appeared out of 12.
So the main part of my problem is not that photos don't appear at all (if I try and insert them they appear on their own, completely independant of the template's style and the photo grid)., it is that they do not work with the photo grid and that drag-and-drop no longer works.
Any information that could help is greatly appreciated.
Sue

Susan,
Try out the following things. These suggestions are
sort of the starting point for non-specific strange
behavior in iWeb.
1. Delete iWeb preference file at:
YourHardDrive/Users/yourname/Users/Library/Preferences
/"com.apple.iWeb.plist"
2. Delete iLife Media Browser preference file at:
YourHardDrive/Library/Preferences/"com.apple.iLifeMedi
aBrowser.plist"
3. Repair startup disk permissions using Disk
Utility
4. Reboot machine
5. Delete iWeb application (but keep a backup of the
Domain file!) and reinstall iWeb 1.0 from original
iLife'06 DVD or Recovery Disks and then update
directly to 1.1.1 via Software Update.
These are the top 5 things that seem to garner some
kind of positive results from people having similar
problems.
I am having the same problem Susan described. I've tried #1 and #2 from the above recommendations and still have the same problem of photos not opening in the photo page after dragging them from iphoto. I, too, published a site (not on .Mac, but I don't know if that matters) and now want to add a photo page. Also, the template shows six placeholders, but when I select the photo page only three appear.
Hope you can help. Thank you.

Why cant i drag and drop into my external

I am trying to understand why my external devices dont pop up on my desktop, and i cant drag and drop files into my external HD, how do i put a file into an external device?

To make it display on the desktop, Finder > Preferences > General tab > check external disks.
The drive might be formatted NTFS for Windows which is treated as read-only on the Mac. Need to reformat it using disk utility.

Why Cant I Drag And Drop Music And Movies to My iPOD?

Why does Apple make this so hard? I dont want to sync, everytime I do I lose everything and I dont like keeping a separate folder with my tunes I like to listen to all the time and then I dont have the time to go through 50 gig of music to uncheck or check what I want on my ipod.... Why cant I just drag and drop to my Ipod? Why do I need itunes is there another way to get music and videos on my ipod other than itunes?

Also, I cant just look up what my ipod has on it all ready to delete some videos or music. It wants to sync up with my hard drive then it deletes everything.
Sorry but I am way confused on this. I was really used to my basic MP3 player where I have folders on my drive that I just drag and drop/delete as easy as that.

How can I include a success message in a drag and drop interaction - I don't see this option in the Actions on success options, and cannot figure it out?

How can I include a success message in a drag and drop interaction - I don't see this option in the Actions on success options, and cannot figure it out?

I suspected you used the eye icon on the timeline to hide the message, but that one has no impact whatsoever on the published version. It is only meant to be used for editing reasons on the stage, to hide objects temporarily on a crowded stage. It is confusing, certainly in CP8 where for both instances the same eye icon is used. In previous versions the Properties panel had a checkbox for 'Show in Output', which was IMO much clearer than this eye icon. But of course, that is only my personal opinion.
