Drag and Drop lists

On a slide I have a list of 50 words that the user can choose 10 from and order them from the one they like the most to the least using drag and drop.  I want to use their top 3 choices in subsequent slides with out them typing it in. Any ideas on how this can be done?
Thanking you in advance

Hi there
I'm not exactly sure what you mean by your query being overtaken by others. Far as I can see, Lilybiri replied to you and nobody else. Now if you are talking about where the thread actually appears in the list of other threads in this forum and forum category, please understand that it's a really busy forum, so indeed your post *WILL* float lower and lower as others arrive. Not much we can do about that.
Please also understand that the folks that try and help out are doing this voluntarily and have their own work to do as well as helping others.
Adobe staff do pop in from time to time, but the forums are largely user to user.
Cheers... Rick

  • Drag and drop List Object[] collection

    is it possible? If we combine JPA entities which are returned then we have to return List<Object[]> collection, e.g. some combination of the fields from Employees and Projects entities is returned by a service

    Not sure what this question is pertaining to. Are you referring to the use of drag and drop in the context of ADF Faces RC with JPA? Or are you describing a design time issue with JPA? Please clarify.
    Thanks,

  • Reset 2 drag and drop lists

    Hi,
    I have two list boxes in a form, A and B. When my page loads
    A is populated from an array and B is empty. The user drags items
    from A and drops them in B and vice vearsa.
    I have a reset button but want to know how I can reset my
    list boxes so that A is populated with all the items from the array
    again and B is empty again...
    Thanks

    Probably the easiest way would be to have 2 arrays that hold
    the data being sent to box A. Just add/or subtract from one that
    you don't care if it changes, and leave the other one alone. When
    you want to reset, just clear Array 2 and populate it again from
    Array 1. For Box B, just reset the contents of the array to nothing
    - myArrayB = new Array({item1:'',item2:''})

  • Drag and Drop List Component?

    Thanks in advance.

    No one knows of a tutorial for this?

  • Drag and Drop Items in Reminders

    I'm disappointed that you can't drag and drop lists in the Reminders app to change the order they appear. Also it's not possible to drag and drop reminders within lists. Any possibility of adding this feature in a future release?

    Go right ahead!

  • There is absolutely NO way to drag and drop newly purchased music from the Purchased list on the phone into my iTunes library?  I'm finding it hard to believe that something so simple cannot be done!

    I like to make MP3 CD's when I have people over, or when my friends have people over so I can just pop them into the CD player and let them play all night without having to worry about changing the CD or anything.  Well, Apple's music is in AAC format, so I have to convert the songs to MP3 files using the converter in iTunes.  So I'll convert them to MP3's and just delete the AAC file so I don't have doubles.  The problem is, the next time I plug the phone into my laptop to transfer new purchases, iTunes thinks that the songs I converted aren't there anymore because the phone has them as AAC files, and iTunes has them as MP3 files, so it doubles the music again...EVERY time!!  It's very frustrating!  So this is why instead of clicking Transfer Purchases, I would like to be able to just drag and drop the songs I want from the Purchased list on the phone into my iTunes library.  I hope I explained this right...lol.  Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like I'm able to do that.  I'm hoping maybe somebody here can help me out and give me some pointers on what to do about this.  Thanks!!

    That stinks!  I can actually do that at my house...I just plug my iPhone right into the wire that's plugged into my receiver in my living room...but some of my friends aren't "technology savvy"...lol...so they just have DVD players and I'll put the CD in there because it will read an MP3 disc.  What's funny, is I have the phone set to "Manually Manage Music", and when I plugged it into the laptop just now, the one song I downloaded last night on the phone, transferred over to the iTunesl library.  That NEVER happens.  And it only transferred the one song...it didn't double the other songs like it ususally does.  I swear, iTunes does what it wants, when it wants sometimes...lol.  Thank you for your quick response. 

  • Drag and Drop to Change Order in a List

    Does anyone know of an example where there is the ability to drag and drop elements in a list and thus change their order? (I.E. drag item one below item two and then item one and two change locations)
    Thanks!

    Check out http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/misc/dnd.html
    There's an example towards the end of the page for drag-and-drop between 2 JLists. Might be a good starting point.

  • Outlook email drag and drop to sharepoint task list

    We are using using Outlook 2007 (Soon to be switching to 2010) and Sharepoint Server 2010.
    We want to allow email drag and dropping which is accomplished through the folder list view.  However when doing this this it does not take the attachment.
    My question is, is this possible or do we need to develop an add-on for outlook?
    Thanks

    Neither be it SharePoint 2010 or SharePoint 2007, you can not do it without developing an add-on or writing additional code. Depending on your complexity of SharePoint, it is relatively easy to build an add-on if you only want to drag and drop Outlook email
    to SharePoint folder.
    SharePoint Outlook Integration add on is one of such tool which is functioning well if you have a small number of mails to transfer to SharePoint, but if you drag larger number of Outlook emails to SharePoint, it is quick slow to finish the whole process. 
    Good luck.

  • Drag and Drop in List View

    When in the List view in Finder, I would like to drag and drop a folder in Terminal to cd to that path. However, it does not appear that List view allows dragging and dropping at all even to copy files within Finder. Is it by design? I like List view because it allows me to see the tree view of folders like in Windows Explorer. Thanks.

    Works here. I've never had any issue selecting anything in list view (the only one I ever use in Finder windows) and dragging & dropping into a Terminal window and getting its path. Create a new admin user account, log into it, and see if the behavior persists.

  • TS2972 Cannot drag and drop to play list

    Hi!
    I have my music library on a NAS server, it is now connected in Itunes (firefly svn-1696...)
    but i cannot drag music files to any playlists..... ???
    I have enabled Sharing in my home.
    Any ideas why I cannot put music into my play lists ??
    Another thing, for some reason Itunes cannot display any of the "other" file lists
    (album list, net, coverflow)
    Best regards
    Poul Visby

    Hi Poul,
    do you use the samba access to your music files? Or do you use a iTunes Server feature provided by your nas?
    Using the iTunes Server feature of the nas i have experienced similar results with my Thecus nas. Thats why I use a network-share to contain my music files and host my iTunes direcory (with all the playlists and stuff) locally. Then i drag and dropped the music files from the network share into my iTunes and there I can manage my play lists. Pay attention to uncheck the "Copy files to the iTunes Music folder when adding to library," in the iTunes Preferences otherwise it will duplicate your music...
    Hope this helps.

  • Drag and Drop in hero list.

    Hi,
    I am working on a mobile project which requires drag and drop in same list. Has anyone implemented this in their project. Please share your experience.
    Thanks,
    Mahesh.

    OK, I've fixed this in the following way.
    In the createDragIndicator() function, I've grabbed the element from the layout and set the dragImage's x and y to the same:
    public override function createDragIndicator():IFlexDisplayObject
         var dragItem:IVisualElement = selectedItem;
         var dragImage : UIBitmap = new UIBitmap( dragItem, PixelSnapping.NEVER );
         if (dragImage is IVisualElement)
              IVisualElement(dragImage).owner = this;
         var element:ILayoutElement;
         if (layout.useVirtualLayout)
              element = layout.target.getVirtualElementAt(selectedIndex);
         else
              element = layout.target.getElementAt(selectedIndex);
         dragImage.x = element.getLayoutBoundsX();
         dragImage.y = element.getLayoutBoundsY();
         return dragImage;

  • Issue : drag and drop from list control to tree control

    Hi,
    I was trying a drag and drop from list control to tree control. I have used some sample data to populate list and tree controls .
    It is working fine . except one problem ..
    Prob : when i drag an item to tree control .. it gets added .. now tree contains (X+1) data in list .. say X is the inital number of nodes in a tree node.
              now if i drag another item from list to last item in the tree node  .. i.e at X+1 index. .. it throws null pointer exception.
