Drag and Drop Movie Clips onto Plugin

Hi All,
We've built a plugin for Adobe Flash CS5.5, with a tree control in the plugin.
We wish to be able to drag and drop movie clips from the canvas onto the plugin. Wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction?
regards,
-amit

Hi,
If you are developing the plugin in Flash, have you tried to listen to NativeDragEvent.NATIVE_DRAG_ENTER and NativeDragEvent.NATIVE_DRAG_DROP ?
Once the plugin behaves like an AIR Application, you should have access to its API.
I hope it helps !

  • How to add a code so my drag and drop movie clip will not stick  once it is dragged to final place o

    Hello all and kglad, I have to use the old drag and drop code on my movie clips, but the problem is when I drag the movieclip to the area on my .swf file once i release it, it sticks to the hand mover.
    I am encloseing the action script I am using could someone or kglad tell me what is missing from the code so that once it is released it will not stick, see code below
    circle.onPress = function(){
    startDrag(this);
    circle.onRelease = function(){
    stopDrag();
    I am desparate for help on this must get project ready for this afternoon
    Seal55

    there's nothing wrong with that code but it would be better to use:
    circle.onPress = function(){
    this.startDrag();
    circle.onRelease = function(){
    this.stopDrag();
    but that won't solve your problem.  there must be something else going on like a depth issue.  you may need to use swapDepths() to bring your circle under the mouse when releasing.

  • How can I make a drag and drop movie clip to disappear when it's dragged in a specific area?

      I have a movie clip that also has the function to duplicate. What I want is that if the user dosent want so many duplicates, to have an area where if he drags the duplicates, they will disappear.  Thank you.

    I've search on google but I did not found any tutorial for this particular thing. I found instead this code : 
    on (press) {     startDrag ("", false);   
    this.swapDepths(_global.depth++);
    on (release, releaseOutside)
    stopDrag ();   
    this.swapDepths(_global.depth++);   
    if (this._x > 493.250000 && this._x < 636.050000 && this._y > 142.900000 && this._y < 271.350000)   
       this.removeMovieClip();   
        } // end if
    but I don't know how to make the _x/_y to work, better said I changed  the values but nothing happend, did I did something wrong ? The first _x/_y stands for the position? I've played with the range values but cant seem to make it happend.

  • I can't drag and drop movies from my hard drive onto my iPad.

    I just recently upgraded from an iPad to an iPad 2. I still have the old iPad. I have no problem dragging and dropping movies and TV shows from my external hard drive onto my old iPad, but I can't seem to do it with the iPad 2. It syncs movies and TV shows from iTunes, but I don't want to have to load everything into iTunes just to get it onto my iPad. Again, no problems doing it with the old iPad. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

    No I didn't - checked it, and now it works! I guess I forgot about setting that feature up when I got my first iPad. Thanks Allan!

  • Why cant i drag and drop movies into itunes?

    why cant i drag and drop movies into itunes?

    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.

  • HT203106 Is there a way to just connect my phone to my laptop and drag and drop the photos onto my laptop?

    i just recently updated my laptop to yosemite and i'm looking for a way to quickly upload all my photos onto my laptop so i can clean out space on my phone.  i'm seeing that i can use air drop, but is there a better way?  i just want to drag and drop them all onto my laptop like i was able to do before... please help!

    Image Capture would be the way to do if you are not using iPhoto or Aperture.

  • Can't Drag and Drop movies onto iPod

    I purchased a movie from the iTunes Store, which I downloaded to my Mac. I tried drag and drop the movie onto my iPod Touch (4G), and while it showed the little 'plus' icon over my iPod, it didn't transfer the movie. I made sure I had enough room on the iPod, I tried quitting iTunes and trying again, but nothing has worked. Of course, I can download the entire movie again from the iTunes store, but that's a lengthy process. In the old days I could drag pretty much anything from the Mac to the iPod. What gives? Thanks for any help.

    First of all, if you try Sync , you will get exactly the same message: *"the movie <name> has not been transferred to the iPod because it cannot be played on this iPod."* The message means exactly what it says. You may believe that the iPod should play them, particularly as Quicktime does, but the fact remains - it won't, which is why iTunes will not transfer them.
    I don't manually manage, I only use Sync and my iTunes is littered with .mov files that will not transfer to the iPod because I get that message. I wish I had cleaned up iTunes as I went along because now it's littered with stuff that doesn't work (except in iTunes or in Quicktime).
    As for .mp4 files, I cannot find one (at the moment) in my iTunes that has not transferred to the iPod - do you mean .m4v? I definitely have some .m4v files which will transfer and others that don't. I assume it has something to do with the way the audio is encoded into the video.

  • Re-create Tree control drag and drop move

    Hello,
    Ive got a tree control where dragEnabled=true and I have
    custom handlers for dragEnter, dragOver, and dragDrop so that I can
    drag/drop from datagrid's to the tree and it works fine.
    The issue is now the built in tree functionality for moving
    nodes around within the tree is gone. When I set dropEnabled=true
    it breaks the ability to drop from the datagrid to the tree.
    How can i keep the ability to move tree nodes within the tree
    and also be able to drag and drop from a datagrid onto the tree?
    Thanks for any help!

    While doing more testing I found the solution.. seriously...
    dont know how I should have known this one...
    on Tree dragOver handler:
    if( from.id == 'data_grid' ) event.preventDefault();

  • I can no longer drag and drop a website onto my desktop.  NOW I have to go through hoops to get anything I want onto my desktop !  this *****

    I had Leopard.  I jumped to Mountain Lion.  Sorry sorry sorry I did.   Many things are stupidly difficult to do, minor tasks, that once were EASY.
    I USED to be able to go onto a website, then DRAG AND DROP the ICON from it ONTO my desktop.  NO MORE.   Frankly, there is NOW no easy way that I've found ..........May I also say, Mountain Lion is one horrendous piece of ........##@@!!!.   I gave my old iMac to a friend after upgrading it for her...with Mountain Lion.   I wish to God I'd not tormented her with that OSX.  I wish to God I'd not tormented myself with it on my own iMac.
    Someone tell me......there MUST be an easy way to Drag/drop a website to my desktop for regular use???  IF NOT, we have YET another glitch on this stupid OSX.
    I have 10.8.2.  2.5GHz Intel Core i5  4GB  21.5 screen  (2011)

    I realize my post made me appear UNcalm.  Sorry.  I am rather irritated by this and have been.
    When I now go to any website, I can only go on it by clicking FULL page.  In other words, I can get to it by 2 ways, by putting it into the "google" bar, or by FULL screening to type in http....www....etc.
    I am then in Full screen to access any website.  THEN,   I can no longer drag/drop the website's Icon to my desktop.......If I diminish, I lose the website.  It may bring up the same site, but will not let me drag the site's icon ONTO my desktop to use in the future.
    That seems to have disappeared with Mountain Lion.  I was able to do it with ease on Leopard.
    Repeat:
    In Leopard, I would go to a website and could drag that website's icon ONTO my desktop.  Period.
    I am no longer able to do this with Mountain Lion.
    If I try to drag anything, NOTHING happens OTHER than it replicates the page...it does not place an icon on my desktop to use in the future.
    I am CALM.  I AM frustrated.

  • How do I drag and drop an action onto a task flow?

    In How to pass View Object bind variable from ADF page John states that
    You should also consider dragging-and-dropping the executeWithParams operation on your task flow and wiring it to occur before your page instead of putting it in the page definition of the page itself - this way it is more clear what is happening, and is the recommended approach for 11g apps. When you drag-and-drop the operation, you can use the dialog to bind the parameter to your page-flow-scoped variable by supplying the proper EL there.
    How can I drag and drop the executeWithParams method onto a task flow. I am using 11.1.1.5.0 on LINUX?
    I'm presuming I a need a method action in my page flow.
    I have the following action defined in my page def file:
    <action IterBinding="localizedCustomerHierarchyViewIterator"
    id="executeQueryWithParamsForLocalizedCustomerHierarchyView"
    InstanceName="BusinessRulesAMDataControl.LocalizedCustomerHierarchyView"
    DataControl="BusinessRulesAMDataControl" RequiresUpdateModel="true"
    Action="executeWithParams">
    <NamedData NDName="RootEntityId"
    NDValue="#{pageFlowScope.recommendationRule.customerEntityId"
    NDType="java.lang.Long" NDOption="3"/>
    <NamedData NDName="Language"
    NDValue="#{pageFlowScope.recommendationRule.language}"
    NDType="java.lang.String" NDOption="3"/>
    </action>

    In summary, it appears you need the following artifacts in order to initialize a view object from parameters before rendering a .jsff view that relies on that view
    1) a method-call in task flow.xml file:
    <method-call id="executeWithParamsLocalizedCustomerHierarchyView">
    <method id="__5">#{bindings.executeWithParamsLocalizedCustomerHierarchyView.execute}</method>
    <outcome id="__12">
    <fixed-outcome id="__9">initializedLocalizedCustomerHierarchy</fixed-outcome>
    </outcome>
    </method-call>
    2) a control flow rule in the task flow .xml file whose source is (1) and whose destination is the view for which you want to intiialize a view object that supports an iterator that is bound to a list, tree, etc.
    3) an entry for the execute action in the databindings.cpx file
    <page path="/WEB-INF/[email protected]calizedCustomerHierarchyView"
    usageId="oracle_apps_br_view_RecommendationRulePFPageDef"/>
    4) the page def must be defined in the databindings.cpx file
    5) the page def needs to define action and iterator and list (or otherwise) that is used in UI.
    <iterator id="localizedCustomerHierarchyViewIterator"
    Binds="LocalizedCustomerHierarchyView"
    DataControl="BusinessRulesAMDataControl" RangeSize="25" Refresh="never">
    <sortCriteria>
    <sort attribute="Level" ascending="true"/>
    </sortCriteria>
    </iterator>
    <action IterBinding="localizedCustomerHierarchyViewIterator"
    id="executeWithParamsLocalizedCustomerHierarchyView"
    InstanceName="BusinessRulesAMDataControl.LocalizedCustomerHierarchyView"
    DataControl="BusinessRulesAMDataControl" RequiresUpdateModel="true"
    Action="executeWithParams">
    <NamedData NDName="RootEntityId"
    NDValue="#{pageFlowScope.recommendationRule.customerEntityId}"
    NDType="java.lang.Long"/>
    <NamedData NDName="Language"
    NDValue="#{pageFlowScope.recommendationRule.language}"
    NDType="java.lang.String"/>
    </action>
    <list ListOperMode="navigation"
    IterBinding="localizedCustomerHierarchyViewIterator"
    id="customerLocalizedEntityHierarchyList">
    <AttrNames>
    <Item Value="EntityName"/>
    </AttrNames>
    </list>
    6) a backing bean that provides the functions to initialize the parameters for execution
    The easiest way to get most of this is to drag the ExecuteWithParams from within the view in the datacontrols panel right onto the task flow diagram. The downside is that you are left with some pretty poorly named artifacts...
    Did I miss anything?

  • Drag and drop movies out of Aperture?

    I imported my movies into Aperture and now I can't get them back out.  I tried to drag and drop them to the desktop but it only creates an 'info' file that's only a few kb large.  I want to move about 300 files out of Aperture and into iMovie where I have much more control.  Thanks in advance to anyone that can help.

    Think I figured out my own problem after screwing with it for a while...  It looks like exporting the MASTER files is what I needed to do.

  • Drag and drop movies

    I tried to drag and drop a movie to Itunes and the movie would not show up. So i searched it up on YouTube and i saw a video that said to convert the file to a .mp4 file and that still didn't work. Can someone please help me put movies into Itunes? The version of Itunes i have is 11.1.3.8 if that helps any.

    I dont suppose you could show me how to create the loop? My

    thanks

    Exactly what happens here too when dragging from Contacts; I typically don't have photos there either. I submitted a "bug" report via Provide Numbers Feedback.
    Do you still get misalignment of column headers when dragging or pasting csv or tsv (i.e. not from Contacts)?  I've had pretty good results with csv and tsv here in v. 3.2, a welcome change from the earlier releases.
