Drag and Drop files from other places to universal apps(windows store)

Hi,
Is there a possiblity to drag and drop a file from windows desktop or from other windows store app to my application. I tried searching samples, but it says about dragging an image with in the solution.
The best example is drag and drop files into recycle bin. Is there a way possible for modern app(instead of recycle bin), or give an user similar experince as the same.
If not windows8/windows8.1,could we expect in windows 10.
I believe if it is not possible with XAML/c#, the same holds good for HTML5/JS
Thanks & Regards Tejaswi Chandrapatla

  • HT2518 how do i or can i drag and drop files from one external drive to another ???HOW

    how do i drag and drop files from one external drive to another, i cannt get both drives to open up. only one at a time.. i have alot to learn i know but that is where i am at the time...

    You posted here so would assume you are also talking about running Windows.
    Are the drives NTFS and use on Windows?
    Are they Mac HFS formatted?
    You likely will need NTFS for OS X in one case. to mount PC and use under Mac OS Lion
    MacDrive to mount and WRITE to HFS drives under Windows

  • Drag and drop files from outside of DW into DW Files Window

    When I was using Dreamweaver CS for Windows, I could drag and
    drop files from my desktop directly into the Files Window of
    Dreamweaver. But I can't do that in the Macintosh version. Am I

  • If I were to drag and drop files from an OSX 9 onto an external hard drive (1 TB), assuming there is still plenty of space left, will I be able to use this same external hard drive to back up my iMac (Mountain Lion)?

    If I were to drag and drop files from an OSX 9 onto an external hard drive (1 TB), assuming there is still plenty of space left, will I be able to use this same external hard drive to back up my iMac (Mountain Lion)?  And would it ask me if I want to initialize (thus erasing it) or eject the hard drive like the OSX 9 did?

    I was trying to follow this thread because I was curious about the OS 9 installation - until I realized you have another thread going about the very same subject, albeit with a different subject line.
    FWIW: it is best not to double post - things get far too confusing after a while.

  • I want to have two folders of Finder so that I can easily drag and drop files from one folder to another

    I have been trying to reorganize my files. When in Manila I created a folder called Manila 2015 in Documents. I have the Mother folder Files 2015 with several subfolders like Finances, Personal, Tax etc. I want to have two finder folders simultaneously so that I can drag and drop files from the Manila 2015 folder to the various subfolders in the mother folder Files 2015. I am not able to open two windows of Finder on the desktop.

    I have since found out that a new finder window can be opened witht the short cut Command+N.
    Thanks anyway.

  • Mac: can I drag and drop files from Finder into Files panel

    I am relatively new to Mac so forgive me if this is obvious.
    I just switched from Windows to Mac and now something I used to
    know how to do in Windows I can't figure out how to do on Mac. In
    Windows I used to open an Explorer window over Dreamweaver, select
    some files, and drap and drop them into the Files panel in
    Dreamweaver, and they would be sucked in.
    Now on the Mac whenever I select the Finder window to select
    files to drag and drop, the Dreamweaver panels disappear
    completely, rather than just move beneath the Finder window. So
    when I'm ready to drag and drop there's no Dreamweaver to drop
    into. I see that if I put focus on Dreamweaver, then Finder won't
    disappear, and I can click on Finder to begin a drag without
    Dreamweaver disappearing but then it is unresponsive to a drop.
    In short, I can't seem to drag and drop files from Finder
    into Dreamweaver on the Mac. Am I missing something? I'm using
    Dreamweaver CS3 on Leopard if that makes any difference.
    Thanks,
    Jan

    I don't believe you can do this on the Mac platform. The only
    other thing you could try is to use Spaces and have the Finder open
    in one Space and then drag it over to Dreamweaver in another space.
    Outside of that I can't think of how this would work.

  • Cannot drag and drop file from photos app to photoshop

    Hi,
    I'm trying to open a file saved in my Photos library in Photoshop. Previously in iPhoto I could drag and drop the file to open in other applications including Photoshop but this functionality appears to be missing in the new Photos app. Am i missing something? Or is there another way to do it?
    thanks

    Tristan,
    I am stuck in the same place. Perhaps we could work on this together.
    I am trying to drag a single item from a JList to a text editor, Word, etc. I have two problems:
    1) I can't seem to get just the item in the JList to drag. It wants to drag the entire JList component.
    2) How does one define the remote application as the drop target? Have not found any examples either.
    Is the drop target actually the system clipboard?

  • Drag and Drop file FROM Java app TO native desktop

    I'm a litte new to Drag and Drop. After a few days of looking around I've been through enough examples to copy and paste some skeleton code and get it working in my own application.
    What I haven't gotten any answers to (after searching on google, newsgroups, and here) is if it's possible to drag something from a Java app to the desktop or file browser, and have java create a file there.
    I know you can drag text to native apps, so I was wondering if you could make a Transferable object that's different than StringSelection(), like a file stream or something.
    Thanks,
    Tristan

  • Drag and Drop file from a jsp to local machine

    Hello All,
    We have got a user requirement where, currently we have an attachment section in our JSP, where users are provided with the file download links,
    as the user clicks those links the file download pop appears.
    But now they ask for a drag and drop functionality, so that the link icon which they see on the JSP, if they drag it to there local machine, the file is downloaded
    to the machine. Am not sure if it can be done from a web page. Any ideas if at all this is feasible. Or any direction where i can look through.
    Thanks,

    But the other way around of dragging file which is on server, to the local machine...even if i have applet.. not sure how will that work.Neither am I. Just check the documentation / forums associated with the UI framework in question. This forum is for JSP/JSTL only. I can only tell how to embed an applet or webstart app in JSP, but nothing more than that.
    Any ideas around Activex stuff if any ?Terribly bad idea. It's a MS proprietary technology and it would work in only one certain webbrowser developed by the same company, so you would exclude about 40% of the world wide web population from using the functionality. Just use the standard technologies.

  • Drag and drop files from Outlook move mails to delete box

    Hi everybody,
    I'm trying to develop a feature to be able to drag one or several mails from Outlook to my Java application.
    As Java doesn't recognize a drop of an Outlook mail, in my program, I assume that if it's not a known file type, it is a mail. (I know it's quite straightforward).
    When one or several mails are dropped I use a function from a plugin to get detail from the Outlook mails to import them into my application. In fact it import the data from the current selected mails in Outlook. This function is working perfectly when I use it without drag and drop (from a button 'Import' in the application).
    My problem is that when I use drag and drop, mails are imported correctly but sometimes (not always) they are also moved in the delete box of Outlook. I have done several tests to try to figure out what is the cause. I have used several versions of Outlook, I have dropped 1 mail and several mails a the same time, etc...
    Here are my tests results: it deletes the mails randomly but it seems to delete more often when my Java application isn't in full screen.
    What could be the cause?
    Another question: is it possible to configure my drop area to do copies only and not move? When you drag and drop you have a small symbol next to your mouse arrow. It is a '+' inside a square for copy and an empty square for move. My drag and drop does move by default. I could maybe avoid my deletion problem by changing it to copy?!
    Cheers.
    Edited by: Foobrother on Apr 16, 2009 2:46 AM

    I think I have fixed it. I still have to make more tests, but it doesn't delete the mails any more for the moment.
    In fact, when dropped item is detected as a file I do dtde.acceptDrop(DnDConstants.ACTION_COPY);But if it's not, I just set a variable to say that it is an Outlook mail.
    So I have added the line dtde.rejectDrop(); to cancel the drop. And now it seems to work.
    Apparently, I didn't clean some stuff when doing an email drop and it still wanted to move the mail or something?!
    Anyway, thanks for the help

  • Unable to drag and drop files into other locations

    As I clicked on a music file to drag into my iTunes, it would not allow me to perform that action.
    (I was able to click, drag, and drop a music file into iTunes a few seconds previously)
    This happened all of a sudden. The same thing happens as I try to drag a file to the trash, etc.
    What settings should I go into to see if everything is set correctly so I can re-perform the drag and drop action?
    I've already went into my Preferences..general settings...and clicked spring-loaded files and windows.
    Nothing changed once I un-clicked the box and re-clicked it.

  • Drag and drop file from desktop screen to SD card in slot on macbook pro

    Hi i am trying to put a file from my Macbook Pros desktop and drag over to my SD card which is inserted in the side of the mac, this is a firmware update for my digital camera which needs to go onto the SD card and inserted into the camera. I can start to drag the file but as soon as it nears the open folder of my sd card the cursor changes to like a greyed out no entry sign and will not drop, the card is fat-32 if that helps. Sandisk Extreme pro 32gb class 10.

    The card reader is apparently stuck in write-locked mode. I don't generally advise do-it-yourself hardware repair, but one ASC poster managed to fix this problem. I haven't tried the fix myself and I can't offer any guidance beyond what's in that discussion. If you cause damage, don't expect your warranty to cover it. I suggest you instead make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.

  • Drag and drop file into Outlook from AIR application

    I am hoping to see if this would be possible with the Adobe AIR API. We currently have a desktop AIR application that clients install in order to facilitate certain operations triggered via a web application (such as opening files directly from the web).
    One of the actions we are requested to support is the ability to drag and drop files from our web application directly into Outlook and have the file added as an attachment. I saw the documentation at Adobe Flash Platform * Dropping file promises and was wondering if this might be a possibility, or if there was some other method of performing this.
    We are trying to get around the fact that users now have to download a document to their desktop before being able to attach in Outlook.
    Thanks for any assistance.

    You just aren't calling the right NativeDragManager functions. See http://help.adobe.com/en_US/as3/dev/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d118666ade46-7d83.html
