Drag and Drop Test

Hi ,
I am building a Quiz where we have a Drag and Drop Question ,with Option from 1 - 5 Randomly displayed , User have to put them in a right order for the answer to be correct..When the Answer is correct , a Movie Clip Pops up showing its the Correct Answer
I am taking questions out of an XML File , but don't know how I would define a SET of option to be a correct answer in this ,
Anyone with a Code would be a great help , here is what I have in my AS3 Code
  private function fn_showQuestionDragAndDrop():void
   mc_questionDragAndDrop.visible     = true;
   mc_questionDragAndDrop.y        = (277 - ((6 -( txt_question.numLines))*21.6));
   arr_objects = new Array();
   while(mc_questionDragAndDrop.numChildren > 0)
    mc_questionDragAndDrop.removeChildAt(0);
   var arr_dragOptions:Array =  new Array();
   for(var i:uint = 0;i< xml_questions.problem[int_currentQuestion].answers.answer.length() ;i++)
    arr_dragOptions.push(xml_questions.problem[int_currentQuestion].answers.answer[i]);
   arr_dragOptions.sort(randomSort);  
   for( i = 0;i< xml_questions.problem[int_currentQuestion].answers.answer.length() ;i++)
    var mc_counter:mc_questionDragAndDropCounter       = new mc_questionDragAndDropCounter();
    mc_counter.txt_caption.text     = String(i+1)+":"
    mc_questionDragAndDrop.addChild(mc_counter);
    mc_counter.y          = 32*i;
    mc_counter.x          = 27.9;
    var mc_option:mc_questionDragAndDropOption = new mc_questionDragAndDropOption();
    mc_option.txt_caption.text     =  arr_dragOptions[i];
    mc_questionDragAndDrop.addChild(mc_option);
    mc_option.y          = 32*i;
    mc_option.x          = 48.05;
    mc_option.buttonMode       = true;
    mc_option.mouseChildren      = false;
    mc_option.id = i;
    mc_option.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,fn_mouseDown);
    mc_option.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,fn_mouseDown);
    arr_objects.push(mc_option);
    mc_option.X = mc_option.x;
    mc_option.Y = mc_option.y;
Here is the XML Code
<problem id = "4">
  <question type = "DragAndDrop" >At uncontrolled intersections or situations, the hierarchy rule applies. Drag and drop the below into the correct hierarchical order.</question>
  <answers correct = "1">
   <answer>Emergency vehicles driving under priority flashing lights &amp; siren</answer>
   <answer>Explosive trucks, working graders and dozers</answer>
   <answer>Haul trucks</answer>
   <answer>Other heavy equipment</answer>
   <answer>Light vehicles</answer>
  </answers>
</problem>
How can I define a Pattern to be Correct Answer in this case?

Thanks a lot for the help ,
I tried the Code with addition of adding a Movie Clip (correct) or (wrong) based on answer  to it which I am doing with the rest of the questions , but its not doing anything
Here is my Code , Part of the Problem can be that there is NO one Correct Answer here , actually , user have to set the Lines of Text in the right order and that would be considered a correct answer
Here is my Code in AS3
if(Boolean( xml_questions.problem[int_currentQuestion].answers.answer.@correct)){
    correct.visible        = true;
    correct.correct_txt.text      = String("Correct Answer");
    Root.arr_score[int_currentQuestion]   = 1;
   }else{
    attempt--;
    wrong.visible = true;
    wrong.wrong_txt.text = String("Wrong Answer - " + attempt + " /3 Attempts");
    Root.arr_score[int_currentQuestion]   = -1;   
and in the XML I did what you asked , but I don't know how to set it up that Flash would understand that the Selection is in the Right Order now

  • Who'd like to test a new Drag and Drop Interactive Widget?

    It's taken about 6 months of every spare minute we could find but we're finally ready to do a round of Alpha testing for our new Drag and Drop Interactive Widget for Cp4 and 5.  This post is to ask for a handful of volunteers to test the new widget over the next week creating drag and drop interactions in both Cp4 and Cp5.
    If you've already tried our well-known Drag and Drop Lite Question Widget, but were a bit frustrated by the limitations that the quiz question format placed on your creativity, we think you'll be blown away by what this new Interactive Widget can do.  It does everything the current question widget does, aside from the aspects that are unique to question types (Review Area, Retake Quiz, etc) plus a whole lot more.  Due to the extra functionality, this widget has twice as much code as our last one.
    Some of the features:
    You can have as many widgets as you want on a single slide and each can be addressing a different drag and drop scenario.
    You can reference the same drag and target objects from different widgets to create different.
    Since they are interactive widgets, you can use the widget success/failure criteria to trigger Advanced Actions.  This opens up a lot of possibilities for game interactions.
    You can score each widget differently so that OnSuccess they will each report different scores for dragging the same objects.  This means you can have Conditional Scoring and more than one correct answer for a given problem.
    You can set one of the widgets to have its Preferences be used for all widgets on the slide so that you don't need to set all widget preferences individually, thus saving a lot of time.
    You can set Preference Priority for each widget to configure which widgets will have "right of way" if there is a potential conflict in preferences.  For example, if one widget wants one type of snapping behaviour on an object but another widget wants the same object to snap differently, the widget with the higher Preference Priority will dominate.
    You can nominate other interactive objects (including clickboxes or other widgets) to act as Submit button and Clear button to create a simulated quiz question.
    Since this widget is an Interactive widget, it also has the same advanced Pausing override behaviours we built into our Event Handler widget (http://www.infosemantics.com.au/eventhandler)  So you can have users stay on the same slide playing with the drag and drop interaction for as long as they like without progressing to the next slide until they want to.
    Plus other stuff I can't think of right now.
    If you decide to volunteer to participate in this Alpha testing, please don't use this widget for any production Captivate projects you may have.  The Alpha and Beta versions of the widget will be time-bombed to stop working after a couple of weeks so that we don't have buggy versions running around later.
    As I said at the beginning, we only need a handful of testers, we need people using either Cp4 or Cp5, and you need to do this testing over the next week so that we can then address any issues you find and release a debugged Beta version for more testing.
    Anyone wanna play?
    If you do want to volunteer, send me a private message on this forum with your email address so I can send you a widget and instructions.  We'll only be taking the first dozen or so people that are willing to contribute time and feedback.
    Cheers,
    Rod Ward

  • I want to do a drag and drop but don't want it to be a test

    Hi,
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    I am using Captivate 7.
    I want to do a drag and drop but don't want it to be a test. This is for brain storming---not a test.
    None of the items to drag are correct or incorrect---they are just ideas. For example the 20 items could be different things you might put in your suitcase for vacation. There are no wrong answers---just your preference.
    There are 20 items to be dragged. There is only one drag target. All 20 items can go to that 1 drag target.
    I don't want the learner to have to drag all of the items to the target in order to finish. For example, the learner might leave 3 items out because the learner doesn't like those items. I want the learner to be able to hit submit (or any other button) at any time and go to the next slide immediately, not have to finish the drag and drop. Any ideas? 
    thanks!

    Also be aware that if you add a quiz to the project, that the drag and drop and quiz affect each other.
    In a way we have been cheated into thinking that is also a learning tool for repeated attempts. With a quiz in the project it does not work.
    I also tried it without the quiz. When learners now use it, the drag and drop will "hang" at times. EMBARRASING when a client phones you with a stuck learning session!!
    I have spent hours with the online Adobe dudes. It some or other "buG".
    "BUG" is IT code for "we designed something but did not test it well enough and now we pretend that it is some mysterious organic organism that is maliciously undermining our design"  

  • Visual Studio opening files when dragged and dropped in WPF app debugging session

    I'm working on a WPF app (using VS2013 CE) which is intended to manage media files (TV Shows, movies, etc) and as part of this I am enabling the user to drag and drop media files on to the running app (by adding AllowDrop="True" and PreviewDragEnter="Window_PreviewDragEnter"
    to my Window definition).
    The problem I have is that when I drag files onto the app in a debugging session Visual Studio then opens the file(s) when I stop debugging... this is seriously annoying as when I am testing with large media files (> 1GB) it just locks up VS for minutes
    at a time while it tries to open the file or files. When I run the app outside the debugger this does not happen - it's only when I'm in a VS debugging session.  The only way I can stop this happening is to kill VS completely from Task Manager then restart
    it - this is also very annoying but often I need to do this as it will freeze up for 5-10 minutes while it insists on loading the files in VS.
    I understand the app, whilst debugging, is running in the context of VS but why does VS then have to try to open the files when debugging is finished?   I have looked through the options but can't see anything to switch this off and no amount of searching
    has turned up anything - can anyone put me out of my misery with a solution to this annoying issue?

    Hello nzmike,
    Does Visual Studio behaves like the following image shows and just hangs when opening your media file?
    Do you have any other computer which installs Visual Studio? Can you reproduce this on it?
    In order to troubleshoot this issue I think we need to locate the root reason of your issue. The problem can related to the following:
    1. Your project is corrupt and VS then trys to load that file when debug finished.
    2. Your VS is corrupt and caused this problem.
    So please do something below:
    1. Try clean and rebuild your project.
    2. Switch to some other PCs and use VS and your project there, check if the problem can be reproduced.
    3. You can backup your VS setting and try some commands: devenv /resetsettings and devenv /resetuserdata
    Details about VS command:https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/xee0c8y7.aspx
    And based on th research of the above second step, if you can reproduce this issue on more than one PC, the problem is pending on your project and I need you to share a simple sample which can reproduce this issue. We will need to investigate the project
    in detail.
    Best regards,
    Barry

  • In Oats Drag and Drop Api is not working in Firefox Browser

    To Write OAts test for Drag and Drop functionality
    we are using "dragTo" API.
    Ex :
    web.image("/web:window[@index='0' or @title='Fusion Applications']/web:document[@index='0' or @name='aqizmnwha_1']/web:img[@absoluteLocator='" + sourceIndex + "']")
                     .dragTo("/web:window[@index='0' or @title='Fusion Applications']/web:document[@index='0' or @name='aqizmnwha_1']/web:img[@absoluteLocator='" + targetIndex + "']");
    This Api is not working in firfox.(works in IE browser).
    Is there any other way we can test DnD functionality in firefox and IE?
    Thanks in Advance!
    Thanks,
    Siddi

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Flash drag and drop not working on Firefox for android browser

    Drag and drop functionality is not working using Firefox Browser for Android on tablet. We tested with flash action script 2.0 & 3.0 content, both have same issue. Specs of the tab and OS are as follows.
    Android - Kitkat 4.4.2
    Tab models - Lenovo A7600H and Samsung Tab4 T531
    Please refer to a previous case raised on the same issue here at this link (Case 1029615) - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1029615
    Additionally, we observed that the object on which Drag and Drop event was triggered, is moving little bit when we double tap.
    Does Firefox provide any libraries to support Drag and Drop functionality on Flash? We are using Geekoview api to execute flash content in our app. Will the same support be provided in Geekoview as well?
    Are there other folks facing the same issue? Is there a solution or workaround to get this feature running?

    Flash on Android is no longer supported by Adobe. While Firefox does support basic functionality we mainly focus on legacy video applications. You may run into issues with Flash and Geckoview. I doubt we have any resources to support that configuration.

  • How to auto close finder window after drag and drop?

    In Tiger, I would file away items on my desktop my dragging them to the hard drive and then digging down to the appropriate folder. The finder window would then close automatically after dropping the file. Is there a setting in Snow Leopard that will enable similar functionality? Whenever I complete a drag and drop now the finder window just stays open, which isn't a huge issue, but I'd still like to change it. Thanks!

    Here is the test code:
         lo_nd_table_data_source = wd_context->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_table_data_source ).
          lo_nd_table_data_source->get_static_attributes_table( IMPORTING table = lt_table_data_source ).
          "Read Dummy Table
          lo_nd_table_data_source->get_static_attributes_table( IMPORTING table = it_table_data_source ).
        CONCATENATE ls_airline_info-carrid ls_airline_info-connid ls_airline_info-fldate INTO ls_table_data_source-row_key.
          ls_table_data_source-parent_row_key = ls_airline_info-carrid.
          ls_table_data_source-is_leaf   = abap_false.
          ls_table_data_source-expanded  = abap_true.
            SELECT * FROM sflight INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE it_table_data_source.

                                                                and   connid = ls_airline_info-connid
                                                                and   fldate = ls_airline_info-fldate.
          ls_table_data_source-connid    = ls_airline_info-connid.
          ls_table_data_source-fldate    = ls_airline_info-fldate.
          ls_table_data_source-PRICE     = wa_table_data_source-PRICE.
          ls_table_data_source-CURRENCY  = wa_table_data_source-CURRENCY.

  • Drag and Drop and Image Size

    I need to be able to drag and drop images but I need them to be a certain size when I drag them out of an Aperture project. For various reasons, I don't want to use the export function. Only drag and drop will be efficient for the workflow that I"m planning. Problem is, the pixel dimension is not wide enough when I test it by pulling an image on to the desktop.
    My ultimate goal is drag them, sized and ready to go, and drop them onto a web browser upload page. I don't want to fumble with the extra steps of exporting them to another folder on the desktop and then upload the images from that folder to the browser.
    So does anybody know how or if it's possible to control the drag and drop SIZE /DIMENSION of an image?

    The drag and drop size is determined by your preview settings. What actually gets "dragged & dropped" is the preview, not the master file. You can control the quality and size of the preview in the Aperture preferences.

  • Drag and drop file to desktop bug

    I have a new fusion drive 27" iMac with Thunderbolt Cinema Display.
    When I drag a file, like an attachment from mail, onto the desktop it does not drop the file where the cursor indicates it will.
    The same thing when dragging from the download folder or a finder window.
    The file is randomly paced on the main iMac desktop in no particluar order, and you can't precisely drop a file where you want.
    File can be dropped behind open windows, making them hard to find.
    If the Thunderbolt display is unplugged, the issue goes away and drag and drop is precise.
    This used to happen on my old iMac aswell, but i put it down to a bug with my system, however, it also happened out-of-the-box on the new fusion iMac before I installed any software or files, as I was specifically testing this - it's very annoying and disruptive to workflow.
    Something with OSX doesn't like the external monitor when it comes to drag and drop to desktop.

    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 a URL from IE's address bar

    I have a Processing application written (by others) that uses [Andreas Schlagel's sDrop library|http://www.sojamo.de/libraries/drop/] to accept URLs dragged and dropped from the users' browsers' address bar. The application works fine for Chrome and for Firefox and for old versions of IE but not for IE 9 or IE 10. I'm investigating how to fix this.
    In the sDrop library [the Java code to handle the drop|http://code.google.com/p/sojamo/source/browse/trunk/src/sojamo/drop/DropHandler.java] uses the Java class DataFlavor which in turn defines a number of flavours:
    imageFlavor
    javaFileListFlavor
    javaSerializedObjectMimeType
    plainTextFlavor (deprecated)
    stringFlavor
    Over on StackOverflow one questioner enumerates the data formats offered by the different browsers when they drop and for IE he lists:
    UntrustedDragDrop
    msSourceUrl
    FileGroupDescriptor
    FileGroupDescriptorW
    FileContents
    UniformResourceLocator
    Effects: Link
    The URL format does not seem to match the DataFlavors given by the class. Is this where the two additional DataFlavors, javaJVMLocalObjectMimeType and javaRemoteObjectMimeType come into there own? If so, then can someone point me at any samples, examples, tutorials, or code snippets where a Java application is the successful drop target for a URL dragged from IE's address bar?

    Dragging an URL '''OR''' the 'favicon' does '''NOT''' work when you want to drag this to a sub 'folder' in your bookmarks. e.g. I drag an URL or favicon to Bookmarks, I have a sub-folder called 'Recipes' where I want to drop the dragged object. I position the mouse over 'Recipes' and the sub-menu appears. I move the dragged object to drop this on the recipe list in the sub-menu and the sub-menu simply disappears. Equally, I CAN drop this on the top level BM menu but it does not drop in the place needed (I want this (e.g.) NOT at the bottom but two up from there. What happens is that the dropped URL appears to locate it self in a random position. Easy to replicate by dragging the same URL to the BM menu and it drops wherever it feels like. FF team have clearly failed to do some basic testing on this and there are many (correction MANY) other annoying things like this that show there has been poor or insufficient testing. I have been a fan of FF for a long time and recommended it to others. Now I cannot do this with confidence and am seriously thinking of switching back to an old version. However, I might simply go to Chrome. Are you listening FF team? A simple look at the forums will show the groundswell of annoyed people. You have altered the way many things work, seemingly focusing on prettifying things rather than ensuring stability and ensuring basic features continue to work...

    my hard drive crashed on my MacBook Pro crashed and I need to get my CS5 up and running on the new hard drive. I copied what I could onto an external hard drive but when I drag and drop I get directions to uninstall but the uninstall folder I have does says it is an alias that is no longer present. I get error 6. I would like to get my software up and running on the laptop again please

    If you subscribed to iTunes match the songs are kept in icloud. If you didn't but you did save the actual iTunes library folder which should include the music, video, etc.  you should be able to just drag this file back to your machine in the same place and when you open iTunes it will give you a chance to identify the iTunes library folder. 
    You can test this to find out if you saved the media files or not and don't need to attach your nano to do it. 
    You are correct that once you connect the nano it will clear the existing files from it and sync it with the new iTunes library. 
    If you don't have the media files i'm not sure if/how to get them back on a windows ipod.  I have everything backed up regularly because of the horror stories I have seen & heard.

  • Downloads dragged and dropped from Firefox download window into Outlook e-mail show as file location text.

    I have a user who normally can drag files from Firefox's Download window into an e-mail in Outlook and it creates an attachment of that file in the e-mail. However, lately, the dragged .pdf or whatever file only shows up as a text file location like:
    \\file:%Downloads%\randomfile.pdf
    It's not a link either, it's just the text.
    I've tried doing a repair of Outlook.
    I've uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox 19.
    I've tested dragging items from the desktop to the e-mail and it works fine.
    I can't drag and drop from the Downloads window to the desktop.
    I just wanted to add this user is using Windows XP Pro.

    I can confirm that this is an issue with the newest release of Firefox. I just upgraded my Firefox, which was previously 18.02 to 19.0 and now I'm getting the same error. It's a bug.

  • Drag and Drop export of vcards to Mail no longer works in Snow Leopard

    In 10.5, you could drag a vcard from the Address Book application, drop it on the Mail icon on the dock, and the vcard would be automatically attached to a new mail message. This no longer works in 10.6. Tested on a G4 iMac running Leopard and a Mac Pro on Snow Leopard. Kind of a bummer, as I used to send new contacts to business partners all the time this way.

    There have been other reports of drag and drop to the icon not working like it did/should.
    I imagine rewriting it for Docksposé caused a lot of code changes. Hopefully, they will fix the things that have fallen through the cracks.
    I forgot to mention the only workaround I can find is to create the new message first, and then use Docksposé to drop the vCards onto the new message.
