Drag and Drop Multiple attachments issue

I'm having trouble with Mail - when I receive an email with multiple attachments, I like to drag and drop them into the folder short cuts that appear on the left of the finder windows. When I go to that folder later on the attachments aren't there, but their is a text file. The text file name is "yyyy". The number of "y" characters corresponds the number of attachments that I drag their. Has any one had this trouble before. I have done a total reinstall of the system on to a clean hard drive, and it is still happening. The G5 Dual 2.3 was new in Dec 05.
(this is my first posting, so please be patient if I'm not doing this correctly)
Cheers Andy

Andy, the safer way would be to press the Save button that is in the header of your email and then select the folder where you want it saved.

Can't drag and drop Multiple pictures

I can no longer drag and drop multiple iPhoto pictures to the Desktop. Drag and drop a single picture works OK but multiple pictures just doesn't work. I was able to do this in the past. I'm using version 9.4.2. Repairing Disk Utilities and restarting has not helped.
Can anyone help? Your help is appreciated.
Rookie

Try this: make a temporary, backup copy of the library if you don't already have one (Control-click on the library and select Duplicate from the contextual menu) and try the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - Select and run Option #1.

How do I drag and drop multiple files on a control?

LabVIEW supports dragging and dropping a single file on a path control, and have the path control populated appropriately. I want a user to be able to highlight multiple files (say, from the OS Find File window, or anywhere really) and drop them into a path array control in LabVIEW. I was hoping putting a path control in an array would do the trick, but it didn't. The mouse cursor changes to the "+" icon as it did for a single file, but when I release the button the system just beeps. Is this even doable?
Thanks, Bob Martin

I guess I was hoping that the path control would realize it was in an array, and starting with the actual control where the drop occurred (if more than one item of the array is visible) start populating subsequent slots with the other file paths.
I'm not sure how much work would be involved, but maybe I could make a control in VB that would accept the drop event and output the path array I'm looking for. I've never made a control in VB for LabVIEW before, so I'm leary of how much time that would take. I'll add this to my list of "things to do that never seem to get enough priority to do."

Old Drag and Drop With Toast Issue:

I found this link to an old discussion, but it does not resolve my issue:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=9282890#9282890
I burnt two nice LightScribe labels, (nice because I cooked 'em twice for extra darkness, which takes time,) and then, after assuming that if I dragged and dropped my iTunes files to the desk top and then to Toast, as the above thread recommended, that since the files were accepted by toast doing things that way, that things were back to normal. I finished two beautiful CD's (I had a lot of work into the design of the labels,) by burning the music on to the disks. Well, my car cd player wouldn't play them, that is not normal, and I have two beautifully useless CD's which were the product of a lot of time and labor not to mention the cost of the disks... I've always been able to play back using the old process, (without the desktop drag and drop step,) - I'm running an iTunes version way beyond when this bug was supposed to be fixed. What do I do? How do I get back to being able to go directly from iTunes to Toast with successful playback? Thanks for your help with this!

To anselmo Stiffan:
Which problem did you solve: the double click with one tap or three finger drag? I too have aluminum 2008 MacBook, and I found the preferences and accessibility section but seem to fail in finding the right combo of preferences I'm used to or like. Ok, so the three finger drag is good, but click or tab... drives me bonkers!!! Everything was fine for me even after updating to Mountin Lion back in July 2012, but then all of a sudden in October 'my trackpad doesn't work the same. I don't even want to get on the computer anymore, because I'm annoyed and I cannot click on my user account to login with plugging in a mouse or using keyboard shortcut functions. It's hit or miss with my trackpad working, it freezes after awhile, then I have to plug in the darn mouse. I checked my trackpad firmware, it said up to date....I may have to actually start a new discussion??? But to continue venting... Some menu's need one tap, some require double tap... I cannot use one click unless its set to left or right for alternate menu's. Its just bad in my carpel tunnel and frustrating... I've been searching discussions for similar issues and I saw this. I saw you had an older Mac? It's funny how I switched over 4 years to Mac and mine is almost obsolete? I'm afraid to take it in only to pay more money. I guess my real question besides double clicking option would be if other folks with "the older Aluminum" 2008 MacBook models are having similar problems?

Drag and Drop Image Sequence Issue

Hello,
Im having trouble dragging and dropping an image sequence folder. The folder drags in perfectly and the window even highlights but nothing happens. However when I go through FILE and IMPORT i do have success bringing in the image sequence as comp.

> Is there anyplace to go to find known bugs with the program incase something like this arises in the future?
We often post solutions to known issues on the Technical Support part of our site.
I'll go ahead and write up a quick list of known issues in After Effects CC (12.2) with workarounds.
Regarding the update that we thought we'd be releasing this week: We ran into a problem in which one of our fixes broke something else (which is why we do the testing), and we're having to redo some things. My current estimate is that the update will not come out this week but will come out some time within the next couple of weeks. Sorry for the delay, but we need to get this right more than we need to get it out fast.
I'll post a summary of workarounds tomorrow to bridge the time between now and when the update is released.

Drag and drop mail attachments

With the new version of mail Version 8.0 (1990.1) (Yosemite) I cannot drag and drop attachments to Finder like in the previous version.
Rather, I have to select the attachments, save attachments as, then locate the folder etc in Finder to complete a previously very simple action.
Is there a setting to re-enable this?
As I organise dozens of attachments every day, the former process was much more time-effective.

I seem to have solved this problem, which was that my daughter (on Windows) could not save attachments that I sent her in emails, and had other problems.
My solution is:
1. Mail > Edit >Attachments: Check "Always insert attachments at end of message".
2. After composing the text of a message in Mail, drag your image or its icon on to Mail's window and drop the icon at the end of the message. Voila (for me at least). If you drop the image icon at the top of the text, the image gets transmitted but not the text (!!!) (Ain't Apple wonderful!).
3. My daughter sees the image, opened, at the bottom of the message and by Right-Clicking on it she can save the image (she typed .jpg after the image title and got a jpg.)
Hope this works for you.

Drag and drop multiple mail messages into finder

I am trying to move multiple mail messages into finder folders for organization and filing purposes. I know it will save these as mail files but that is what I would like anyway. It lets me drag and drop one message at a time but does not let me do it for multiple messages at a time. Does anybody know how to do this?

You might consider using the "Archive" capability of Mail. Look at Archive in Mail Help.

Drag and Drop Multiple Pictogram elements from the Palette

I have created custom Objects in the palette that can drag and drop individual pictogram elements using a class that extends AbstractAddFeature. What I would like to know if it is possible to drag and drop an item from the palette that contains multiple pictogram elements, such as task1, task2 and a connection between them? I cannot do this with my class from above since
@Override
public PictogramElement add(IAddContext context) {}
only returns one PictogramElement.

Hi,
In my editor I am adding rectangle with associated label that are separate pictogram elements. However they are both linked to the same business object and more linked to each other.
Please look at example from my code:
@Override
public PictogramElement add(IAddContext context) {
final Task addedTask = (Task) context.getNewObject();
final ContainerShape target = context.getTargetContainer();
final IPeCreateService peCreateService = Graphiti.getPeCreateService();
final IGaService gaService = Graphiti.getGaService();
final ContainerShape containerShape = peCreateService.createContainerShape(target, true);
int width = 0;
int height = 0;
width = context.getWidth() <= 0 ? getWidth() : context.getWidth();
height = context.getHeight() <= 0 ? getHeight() : context.getHeight();
final Rectangle invisibleRectangle = gaService.createInvisibleRectangle(containerShape);
gaService.setLocationAndSize(invisibleRectangle, context.getX(), context.getY(), width, height);
// create and set visible rectangle inside invisible rectangle
RoundedRectangle roundedRectangle = gaService.createRoundedRectangle(invisibleRectangle, 20, 20);
roundedRectangle.setParentGraphicsAlgorithm(invisibleRectangle);
roundedRectangle.setStyle(addedTask.isOnlyLocal() ? onlyLocalStyle : getStyle());
if(!addedTask.isAtomic()) roundedRectangle.setLineStyle(LineStyle.DOT);
gaService.setLocationAndSize(roundedRectangle, 0, 0, width, height);
insertInside(peCreateService, gaService, width, height, containerShape, invisibleRectangle, addedTask);
ContainerShape labelShape = addLabel(target, addedTask.getId(), width, height, context.getX(), context.getY());
link(containerShape, new Object[] {addedTask, labelShape});
link(labelShape, new Object[] {addedTask, containerShape});
updatePictogramElement(labelShape);
layoutPictogramElement(labelShape);
addInternalPorts(addedTask, containerShape);
updatePictogramElement(containerShape);
return containerShape;
I think that linking or making somehow relation between pictogram elements should be enough.

Drag and drop multiple mail messages into a folder in finder

Hello All,
I want to archive emails into folders in the finder. I can do this by dragging and dropping individual emails but not bulk emails.
Does anywone know the best way of doing this?
The reason I want to do it is once we have compleated a contract with a client, I want to archive all the messages, pictures, contacts etc into one finder folder. This way, my mail app wont keep growing horribly in size every year.
Thank you

Is the Archive function within Mail of any use?
Archive messages
You can store messages in an Archive mailbox so that you can quickly find them later when you’re ready to take action.
Select one or more messages to archive.If you select a conversation, all messages in the conversation are archived.
Choose Message > Archive or click the Archive icon in the Mail toolbar.An Archive mailbox is created for each account whose messages you archive. For example, if you archive a message sent to your MobileMe account and a message sent to your Gmail account, an Archive mailbox is created for each account.Archived messages remain in the Archive mailbox until you delete or move them. Depending on the account type, the Archive mailbox is stored on the mail server.

Drag and drop multiple items

Hi,
I am trying to do a drag and drop where the droppable area will accept all of the drops as long as they are within the box. For some reason, it sometimes only accepts one, and other times accepts all, only if they are right on top of each other. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
This is the drag and drop portion of the code:
$(".drop").droppable({ accept: '.C'});
$(".C").draggable({revert: 'invalid'});

Dragging and dropping multiple files

for some reason if i select all files in a folder and want to move them i can't do it without hitting edit and copy. I used to be able to just drag and drop the group of files. now when the are all selected and i click on them to drag them it then releases the group and only one file is highlighted. Seems silly i know and i'm sure it's something simply but does anyone know what i'm doing wrong?

The only way I can possibly replicate your behavior is in List view by clicking on the far left of the column. If I click on the item line anywhere from the icon right, I stay selected. All other views work without problem.
Even if I click and release on one item in the selected group, the group stays selected.
So, is it only with the List view and clicking to the left of the icon, or is it all views?

Drag and drop/duplicate warning issues

I am finding itunes extremely frustrating at the moment. For some reason its not telling me when I am about to add the same song to my library. I am cleaning up my folders to save space. I am pretty sure that in the past i have been able to selct an album, drag and drop it into my itunes library and if it was already there itunes would warn me. Then i could just delete the album in the knowledge that i have it in my itunes library. I have just drag and dropped the exact same song in to my library 3 times with no warning. Why? Is there a setting that I have missed? I am using itunes 11.1.5. Thank s in advance

Please provide more details and/or examples.
Ciao.

Drag and Drop multiple boxes and snap to multiple locations then reveal button

Hi I'm Trying to develop a small game where the user chooses from a range of boxes of the left of screen and can drag 3 of them separatley to 3 holding boxes on ther right. each box can be dragged to any location and the order is not important. Once the 3 holding boxes are all full I want a new button to appear. I completed a tutorial and I've got one box working perfectly but no matter what i try I can't get it working with multiple boxes and locations. Below is a list of the instance names of the movie clips plus my actionscript. I've attached a link to the flash file. Any help would be really appreciated. Cheers
LINK
http://www.sainters.net/flash_preview/flash_test/flash test_v6.fla.zip
INSTANCE NAMES
box 1 = "circle_mc"
box 2 = "circle_mc2"
both the grey boxes are called = "targetCircle"
ACTIONSCRIPT
function dragSetup(clip, targ) {
clip.onPress = function() {
startDrag(this);
this.beingDragged=true;
clip.onRelease = clip.onReleaseOutside=function () {
stopDrag();
this.beingDragged=false;
if (eval(this._droptarget) == targ) {
this.onTarget = true;
_root.targ.gotoAndStop(2);
} else {
this.onTarget = false;
_root.targ.gotoAndStop(1);
//the variables below will store the clips starting position
clip.myHomeX = clip._x;
clip.myHomeY = clip._y;
//the variables below will store the clips end position
clip.myFinalX = targ._x;
clip.myFinalY = targ._y;
clip.onEnterFrame = function() {
//all these actions basically just say "if the mouse is up (in other words - the clip is not being dragged)
// then move the MC back to its original starting point (with a smooth motion)"
if (!this.beingDragged && !this.onTarget) {
this._x -= (this._x-this.myHomeX)/5;
this._y -= (this._y-this.myHomeY)/5;
//if the circle is dropped on any part of the target it slides to the center of the target
} else if (!this.beingDragged && this.onTarget) {
this._x -= (this._x-this.myFinalX)/5;
this._y -= (this._y-this.myFinalY)/5;
dragSetup(circle_mc,targetCircle);

Two things...
1) if you want both circles to be draggable you need to execute that last line twice, once for each.
dragSetup(circle_mc); // left off second argument purposefully
dragSetup(circle_mc2);
2) you do not want to name the targets the same name... only one will work as a target that way. GIve them different names, and assign each one a property like...
targetCircle1.isTarget == true;
targetCircle2.isTarget == true;
and in your hittest function test for that property. And if you don't want to allow the user to drop two circles on the same target, set that property to false after it is dropped on... something like...
if (this._droptarget.isTarget) { // may still need eval() portion
this._droptarget.isTarget = false;
Back to item 1... with this approach you won't need to pass the target as an argument, unless you need to have each circle dropped on a specific target instead of any of them (in that case you go back to specifying and testing the target instance)
Your overall dragSetup function will change in various ways if you follow what is offered here as far as allowing for any circle to be placed on any target. If you require specific targets, then your code would remain much as it is except you still need different instance names for all the objects.

Drag and Drop symbol action issue! Help!

Hi,
I am constructing a risk radar and am looking for an object to change state when put on the middle of a target. And once removed from the middle of the target, to change back to its original state, I so far have this code:
// insert code to be run when the symbol is created here
yepnope({nope:['jquery-ui-1.10.0.custom.min.js','jquery.ui.touch-punch.min.js'], complete: init});
function init(){
          //Use the code! Draggable! Droppable!!
          sym.$('risk1').draggable();
          sym.$('risk2').draggable();
          sym.$('risk3_orange').draggable();
          sym.$('risk4').draggable();
          sym.$('risk5').draggable();
          sym.$('risk6').draggable();
          sym.$('risk7').draggable();
          sym.$('risk8').draggable();
          sym.$('risk9').draggable();
          sym.$('risk10').draggable();
          //Droppable... on the target!
          sym.$('Target').droppable({drop: function() {sym.getSymbol("risk3_orange").play();}});
However, when I remove the object from the middle of the target ('Target') it does not change back and then changes back and forth whenever moved from then on,
Can you help?

Excellent, will give this a try in a sec, slightly running before i can walk, I now have 1 symbols for my target, and tried replicating the same code but chagning the name of the symbols for each one, however, it seems that the first symbol changes the colour of the second one? here is my code:
// insert code to be run when the symbol is created here
yepnope(
{nope:['js/jquery-ui-1.10.0.custom.min.js','js/jquery.ui.touch-punch.min.js', 'js/jquery-ui-1.10.4.custom.min.js'],
complete: init
function init(){
// apply the draggable JQuery UI plugin to the MyDraggableSymbol symbol on your stage
sym.$('risk3_orange').draggable({
start: function(e){},
drag: function(e,ui){sym.getSymbol("risk3_orange").stop("Initial");}
sym.getSymbol("Drop").$('Outer').droppable({
drop: function(event, ui)
sym.getSymbol("risk3_orange").stop("Green");
sym.getSymbol("Drop").$('Middle').droppable({
drop: function(event, ui)
sym.getSymbol("risk3_orange").stop("Blue");
sym.getSymbol("Drop").$('Target').droppable({
drop: function(event, ui)
sym.getSymbol("risk3_orange").stop("Red");
sym.$('Risk2').draggable({
start: function(e){},
drag: function(e,ui){sym.getSymbol("Risk2").stop("Initial2");}
sym.getSymbol("Drop").$('Outer').droppable({
drop: function(event, ui)
sym.getSymbol("Risk2").stop("Green2");
sym.getSymbol("Drop").$('Middle').droppable({
drop: function(event, ui)
sym.getSymbol("Risk2").stop("Blue2");
sym.getSymbol("Drop").$('Target').droppable({
drop: function(event, ui)
sym.getSymbol("Risk2").stop("Red2");
Can you help?

How do I drag and drop multiple objects in a mask?

I’ve been working on a flash simulator to show what our night vision product would look like in the dark. I have been successful in making it work with the following code below. Yet I cannot add a "reticle" image (or symbol) to the draggable mask to make it work. Can someone help me with the code? I looked for hours on the internet and I cannot get it to work. I am new to Flash but am starting to learn as much as I can.
Actionscript 3 Code:
img_nv.mask = mask_mc;
mask_mc.buttonMode = true;
mask_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, dF);
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropF);
function dF(event:MouseEvent):void{
          mask_mc.startDrag();
function dropF(event:MouseEvent):void{
          mask_mc.stopDrag();

use a loop (like enterframe) and update the reticle's position to match mask_mc's position.
mg_nv.mask = mask_mc;
mask_mc.buttonMode = true;
// eg, if you add reticle_mc to the stage in the authoring environment
removeChild(reticle_mc);
mask_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, dF);
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropF);
function dF(event:MouseEvent):void{
addChild(reticle_mc);
this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,reticleF);
          mask_mc.startDrag();
function dropF(event:MouseEvent):void{
removeChild(reticle_mc);
this.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,reticleF);
          mask_mc.stopDrag();
function reticleF(e:Event):void{
reticle_mc.x=mask_mc.x; // assuming they both have the same reg points (like the center)
reticle_mc.y=mask_mc.y;
