Drag and drop like visio

I would like to know HOW can I start doing this...
Imagine a set of icons (Jbuttons can be) that I want to copy to a middle frame.
VISIO like.
Then I want to add arrows between one to another or to several other dragged JButtons ... and if I drag the ICONS the arrow will adjust and continue stuck to the correspondent
JButton.
Thanks in advance for any tips.

Do you have a start of you code and specific questions or are you just looking to suck some code? If you are just looking for some source, do a Google for it.

    " I ordered the Snow Leopard software and tried installing it, but it stopped and said to clean the disk."
    First off, your installation disc is in all likelihood faulty.
    This has been a known issue in the past:

  • Drag and drop - like the builder?

    Hi team,
    It's nice to have drag-and-drop repositioning in the builder. It would be even nicer to be able to offer it to my users.
    Is there any sort of guidance available on how to replicate the functionality of P5150 of the builder?
    Thanks
    jd

    Hi JD,
    Yes absolutely you can do that in APEX, however there is not really built-in support for it (although you can refactor the code used in the builder if you choose), but instead of doing that I would recommend using a 3rd party javascript library to make it much easier, two of the most commonly used for that type of drag-drop effect (generally speaking) are -
    Yahoo UI Library - http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/dragdrop/
    jQuery UI Library - http://ui.jquery.com/demos/draggable
    I've used both and my preference is the jQuery library (for a few different reasons that I won't go into here), however if you follow their demos/guide you should be able to see just how easy it is to incorporate it into APEX (there is little APEX-specific coding you need to do really).
    Hope this helps,
    John.

  • Drag and drop, like magic the files just vanish!

    Ever since upgrading my mid 2009 MacBook Pro to Lion, I have been having trouble copying or moving files by dragging them. I especially seem to have trouble dragging files to the desktop...  I drag them there, but they just vanish without a trace.  I also don't seem to be able to option-drag a file to make a copy of it... I drag it to a new location and it just vanishes completely.  This is driving me mad.  Anyone else having this issue?
    I've run a permission repair a few times, but it's made no difference.  Any ideas?

    I pasted this in answer to another thread but will post again here:
    Yes I have had this problem on both my iMac and MBA. It was driving me mad! Can import files to applications like Lightroom and export but trying to copy files to another location through Finder and the files disappeared after appearing to copy.
    Solution is to Force Quit Finder and Relaunch. I then rebooted and all is now fine.
    Another solution I read is to paste this in Terminal:
    killall Finder && open /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app
    Hope this helps others.

  • How do I drag and drop files in iTunes 12?  I don't see my other computers in the side bar only playlist?

    I upgraded to Itunes 12 and now cannot drag and drop my movies & music files between my shared computers?  The side bar option, which only appears under the Playlist tab does not show my other shared devices where I used to simply drag files over and drop them on them to transfer.  I have 2 IMACs and a macbook pro that i like to keep hard copies of my music and video libraries on.  Anyone know how I can get my shared computer to show up on the side bar so I can drag and drop like I've been doing for the last 5 years?

    Thank you Peter.  Mine is more about creating playlist on my iMac and then wanting to drop it it on to my macbook pro for tailgating and family events, instead of recreating.  That doesn't seem like something that should bother apple as I already have the music and I am not going to go purchase it again off iTunes if this is what they are thinking.  I think this is about limiting our ability to share music and movies.   

  • Can you drag-and-drop music onto the iPhone in iTunes?

    New to iPhone and only just braking it in, as it were.
    It looks like the only way I can upload music onto my iPhone is via synching my entire library onto it. Which, if I may say so, is an incredibly stupid and debilitating design - amongst other severe shortcomings of the iPhone I am slowly discovering over time. Is it not possible to drag-and-drop like the good old iPods?
    If this is indeed the only way to load music, what's the easiest I can pick out my favorite 2000-or so tunes and put them on there?? Don't tell me it's clicking on the boxes next to the songs in the Library page, because that's when I will start asking for my money back...
    Cheers

    I don't blame this person whatsoever for making the assumption that the iPod portion of his phone would work similarily, if not the same, as the iPod.
    But it does work the same as the iPod. As with an iPod, you can sync all songs and playlists, or selected playlists, or you can manually manage music and videos. You can also select sync only checked songs and videos under the Summary tab and uncheck the songs in your iTunes library that you don't want transferred to your iPhone. This can be used with syncing selected playlists - if you want to remove a song from your iPhone that is in a selected playlist without removing the song from the playlist in iTunes, you uncheck the song in the playlist in iTunes followed by a sync. There is no difference with an iPod in this regard except for the iPhone not supporting disk mode.
    In order to manually manage music and videos with an iPod, you must select this under the Summary tab for the iPod sync preferences, and the same for the iPhone.
    And if you resent his rant, why respond and waste your volunteer time on this post?
    I can waste my time anyway I see fit. If you don't like it, don't respond.
    And not everyone can afford to replace this type of investment on a whim.
    Copied from the OP's post.
    Don't tell me it's clicking on the boxes next to the songs in the Library page, *because that's when I will start asking for my money back...*
    Or the iPhone can be sold to someone else with the proceeds used to purchase a different phone. I haven't read any reports about someone having trouble selling their iPhone used at a good price even if damaged.

  • Got the new Itunes update..how do I drag and drop a song onto my phone now?

    Reluctantly, I updated my Itunes to the latest version. Glad they could make it a thousand times more confusing. If that was their goal...mission accomplished. I simply want to drag and drop a song that I purchased on my home computer to my ipod or iphone. In the good old days before the latest "improvement", you could simply drag the song to your device. Now, I can view my device. I can view the song. I cannot add the song to my ipod or iphone. Itunes helps actually offers no help for this basic operation. I've asked a few other pc people that have iphones/ipods and they say they just buy the song on their device because they cannot figure it out either. Was this really progress? Bravo on the update, apple guys. You made it so cool, now nobody but you fools can use it...

    I got my own answer !!   I saw it on another post.  Select "View" and then toggle down to "View Sidebar".
    Now I can drag and drop like before.

  • Drag and Drop Layout feature for regions

    Wondering if there is a drag and drop layout feature for regions in 3.1.2 (or below that I might have missed) or if there are plans for it in future releases. I know that this feature is available for items in a region but interested for the many regions I have on a page. I think it would be a nice feature to have instead of having to go into a page template to get the layout I want.
    Thoughts?
    Thanks,
    Russ

  • Drag and Drop Layout with items attached to Page 0 Region Bug

    Hi,
    I have a region on P0 (P0_REGION) and multiple page items (not on page 0) are associated to the region. When I go to "Drag and Drop" the page items I see all the Page Items for the given page and all the Page Items that are linked to a P0 Region. For Example:
    P0:
    Region: P0_REGION
    P100:
    Items: P100_X, Region: P0_REGION
    P200:
    Items: P200_Y, Region: P0_REGION
    Now on P200, click on "Drag and Drop" above P200_Y I'll see P100_X and P200_Y.
    This is a bit of an issue if you have a lot of items that are linked to a region on Page 0 but actually belong to another page.
    Is this a bug?
    Thank you,

  • How can I drag and drop a song from my "Purchased" list on to my i-Pod?

    I've recently updated the apple software on my PC and the new version of i-Tunes won't let me drag and drop songs from my "Purchased" list directly to my i-Pod.  I don't want to sync my i-Pod.  It will erase all the songs on my i-Pod and sync with the playlist from my PC.  I want to select just one song from my "Purchased" list and put that on my i-Pod.

    I got my own answer !!   I saw it on another post.  Select "View" and then toggle down to "View Sidebar".

  • Can't Bulk Drag and Drop Merge in Preview in Yosemite

    I have to file expense reports all the time which are essentially an assembly of a bunch of different PDF files.  In Mavericks I could print out a PDF of my expense report from our corporate expense site and then open that file in Preview, flip the view to "Contact Sheet" and then I can add all of my PDFs scans of my various expense receipts into that view via drag and drop from the Finder and it would add them all to the first PDF document. It was very easy and quick.
    In Yosemite, Apple has changed Preview in many ways.  One significant change for me is that I can no longer execute the above workflow.  Rather I have to open the first PDF file in Preview, flip it to "Thumbnail" view and drag and drop each file individually into the thumbnail view.  I also found the way the app behave is inconsistent....sometimes it ads and sometimes it doesn't, but I haven't been able to add multiple PDFs in one drag and drop like I always could in Mavericks.  Sometimes I have dozens of PDFs for expense receipts and this is a massive pain in the butt.
    I have downloaded 3rd party apps which let me go back to using my default workflow, but they cost $60 - when the utility provided with OSX worked fine before Yosemite was released.  Does anyone have any recommendations on how to use Preview in Yosemite as it worked in Mavericks?

    My issue is that I have a 64gb iPhone which connects to my Vista laptop where I have always chosen the option to manually manage my music. With the latest iTunes update I can't drag music to the iPhone because 'Manually Manage' is unchecked. Check it and I am told I will lose all the music already on the iPhone. But this was already there and Apple have created the issue for me by always making stuff purchased through iTunes the priority and any music files that have been created personally as a second-rate library (in fact Apple doesn't recognise such an idea can be possible - hence iCloud storage is for Apple purchases only). I'm damned if I am going to purchase an album I already have just to suit iTunes so I guess there are two choices. Find a program that is quicker, better, smarter and user friendly than iTunes or never update iTunes. It is often these little things that Apple let themselves down on these days. For people with music libraries that go into 100,000s tracks this is a pain and iTunes may not be the best program out there.

  • Recommend me a good drag and drop tutorial

    I need to make a movie whereby the user drags four items onto 4 targets and achieves a result as each object lands on the target, such as a sound. and then a well done statement at the end.
    Can anyone recommend me a place where I can download such a file so I can manipulate it? I figured an hour ago when i sat at my computer that I would find one easily, but I'm really stuck now. can anyone suggest a tutorial/ site where I could get a free download of an advanced drag and drop like this?
    I'd really appreciate your help!
    Thanks.

  • Dragging and Dropping within iMovie '08

    I am new to iMovie '08. When I first started my project I was able to select a clip and drag directly from the events to the project library. However, now, when I try to drag, I just move the selection to another part of the event. I cannot drag and drop within the project either. Using Macbook trackpad to attempt drag and drop. Any help is appreciated.

    I can do this, but dragging and dropping like described in the manual would be a lot easier.
    Both methods work equally well for me. The usual problem with "Dragging and Dropping" is that the user is too impatient to wait for the segment clip index to be built before attempting to "drag" the segment to the Project window. By the time the segment is "built," the user has already released the "bundle" and it is too late for the application to detect the "active" drop area. You may notice that there is a slight delay between your segment selection/pressing the add button and the actual insertion of your clip segment. The delay is the same in both approaches, however, pressing the add button tells iMovie '08 where the segment is to be moved without the application having to detect an "active" area which may no longer be "active."

  • How to drag and drop a swing component that can make it behave like Visio.

    1) How to make a JComponent drag and drop that behave like visio? I understand it's possible to drag and drop a text or image, but no idea on how to do that on JComponent. 2) After the JComponent is dragged and dropped, how to make the JComponent to be able to resize by the user using mouse 3) The area that the JComponent dropped should it be GrassPane, LayerPane, or ContentPane?

    I see where you're going. I'm drawn to Thunderbird because it puts open emails in separate tabs, which makes finding a particular open message easier than searching the task bar for an open outlook message. I do see your point that tab happy programmers, probably too young to remember how cool we thought drag and drop was when it first came out, don't think much of it. As with a lot of software, each programmer has a very limited view of how it their program should be used vs how it is actually used in the wild.
    People work in different ways. When I schedule an appointment with a client, this is often preceded by a series of emails related to whatever the client wants to discuss. I drag and drop those messages into the appointment window so that on the date of the appointment, I have a nice neat summary of the issues right there in the appointment window. I could use workarounds (save email and then attach to the appointment), but that's like a trip back to Windows 3.0 and it's, if I'm not mistaken, 30+ years later. I guess I'll continue to use Tbird for email and outlook for calendar, not my preferred solution, I'd like to flip MS the bird and cut all ties to outlook, and was hoping Tbird was the solution. Not yet, and perhaps not ever, based on your thoughts.
