Drag and Drop without Overlapping.

Can anyone give me direction on using 'drag and drop' in flash without overlapping?
For example - I have a list of buttons i drag to an area on the stage.
I do not want my buttons to overlap.
Any ideas? Tutorial / example... anything - I'm new on this and i'm in a crunch.
Thanks,
Jackie

Drag and Drop without effect

Hello,
I have created a drag and drop following the examples
provided by the documentation, and i didn't find any example
without the zoom out effect during the drop.
So now I have my drag and drop operation using the drag and
drop manager and I would remove this effect during the drop.
Anyone can help me ?

Implementing Drag and Drop

I would buy this product if the ajax features somehow
supported the implementaion of drag and drop in a way that was
simple to use.
I am dabbling in vb.net/asp.net and its version of ajax
tools. The support for drag and drop are not all that good at this
time.
I have even bought a book that had a chapter on it. It still
takes too much java hand written code to impliment it.
I also own dreamweaver MX. I use this product to do all my
web sites. They all are home stuff and fun stuff. My wife wants her
site to have the user be able to grab an object and drop it on a
specific location and have an event occur. In her case she wants an
animated GIF to fire.
I have turned to vb.net because i am a programmer and use
vb.net for application development. But!!! i am excited about DW
cs3. So my question is!!
Does DW CS3 Ajax tools provide a somewhat easy way to
impliment drag and drop without me having to write to much Java by
hand?
Thanx up front

Drag and Drop interfaces in javascript are nothing simple.
Don't expect any
magic wizards to help you with this.
There are a lot of AJAX/JS libraries. Many have DnD featuers,
but they'll
differ from library to library. you're going ot have to do a
lot of legwork
and takea look at them all.
I've used Scriptaculous in the past, but have found it
limiting. I'm going
to be looking at Jquery UI next.

Java is not involved. JAVASCRIPT is.
DW does not do .net, so you you're going to do .net, you
should look at
Visual Studio as your main development IDE.

Firefox does not allow me to drag and drop files on FTP site anymore. It used to work before.

Hi. I have a Linux FTP server at a client's office. They used to use IE and I moved them to firefox. They could at one stage, drag and drop (upload) files and documents using only firefox and not a third party software. Somehow this stop working. Is there any setting in firefox that can be changed in order to allow drag and drop without using a third party software? This client is very fussy and does not want to use third party software, as the drag and drop worked before. This is their argument.

1- of course i know i have to accept the change, i just don't recall specifically whether or not iPhoto itself was one of the recent updates i accepted. lol
2-this is not true - a few years back, it was a 2 step process. Then it changed with one of the upgrades, and i have been able (as long as i selected 4x3 *book* as opposed to 4x3 *dvd*) to drag between orientations for the past few years - at LEAST 2 years, maybe as many as 4 (I lose track). I remember thinking at the time what a wonderful upgrade that was because it did away with all that needless clicking. Now all of a sudden this month, it has been switched off - am I the only one who has noticed this?
I have been creating an annual 'family photo album' book via iPhoto for several years now, and i use the 4x3 book sizing specifically for that reason, so I've got lots of experience using this setting. I *know* it used to work the other way.

Drag and Drop Learning Interaction without Overlapping

I would like to be able to drag and drop into a column without dragged items overlapping for a quiz question. I don't know Action Script and am using CS3. What do I need to do to get this to work. Component Inspector states Drag1 = Target 1, etc. I need to drag the items to any of targets 1, 2, and 3. Hopefully, someone out there can help me.
Thank you.
Laraine

Thank you for your reply. Your idea of a boolean variable to define the state of the response is what I was initially trying to accomplish. Almost as soon as clicked on 'submit', the thought occurred to me to look for action script in the drag/drop component. I found it and found the response states defined there. Consequently, I achieved external movie clip control. I'm new to this forum and appreciate your help.

How do i download video from iphone 4 to a Mac Compatible Seagate GoFlex external hard drive, drag and drop loads an icon without any data?

I took some video over christmas using my iphone 4 and ever since i have been trying to back up these videos for safe keeping. When i tried to back up to my computer's c drive only the smallest file would load, the other 2 the icon would appear but no data was present in properties. so i then tried to drag and drop to my seagate 3tb GoFlex hard drive and i would also get icons but no data. It seems to me this would be a simple process anyone know the answer? I have windows xp and can seem to move everything else around without any problem just seems to be video as the problem?

Can i make a book in iPhoto without using any of the built in layout templates, which are too limiting when i have already cropped my pictures to show just what I want. Ideally I just want to drag and drop and arrange and size the pictures myself

If you have Pages you can create customs pages for your book as TD suggested. If you have Pages from iWork 09 or 11 this app will add 80 or so additional frames to those offered: Frames and Strokes Installer. Don't use it on the latest Pages version, however.
This tutorial shows how to create a custom page with the theme's background: iP11 - Creating a Custom Page, with the Theme's Background for an iPhoto Book. Once the page is complete to get it into iPhoto as a jpeg file follow these steps:
Here's how to get any file into iPhoto as a jpeg file:
1 - open the file in any application that will open it.
2 - type Command+P to start the print process.
3 - click on the PDF button and select "Save PDF to iPhoto".
NOTE: If you don't have any of those options go to Toad's Cellar and download these two files:
Save PDF to iPhoto 200 DPI.workflow.zip
Save PDF to iPhoto 300 DPI.workflow.zip
Unzip the files and place in the HD/Library/PDF Services folder and reboot.
4 - select either of the files above (300 dip is used for photos to be included in a book that will be ordered).
5 - in the window that comes up enter an album name or select an existing album and hit the Continue button.
That will create a 200 or 300 dpi jpeg file of the item being printed and import it into iPhoto. For books to be printed choose 300 dpi.

Drag and Drop into Photoshop layer without resizing the source image

Hello,
I am using Photoshop CS5, 64bit, in Windows 7.
I went through following steps and getting result that I do not want:
1. Open an existing photopshop file.
2. From the explorer window of my folder, select 100 png files and drag into the graphics area of the open photoshop image.
Result: Photoshop resizes the png file and place it as a layer. It also asks me to commit the resizing for each individual file that I dragged and drop. Sometimes, it takes it as 100% scale, sometimes, 98%, sometimes 102%. If I change it to 100%, then it is not the original size. The image become larger and blurry.
Expected Result: Place 200 png files as separate layer of the open photopshop without resizing it.
My png files are icons that don't need resizing. I cannot tweak 200 images just to get this to the original dimension!
Other things I tried:
I turned off the "Preference->General->Resize Image During Place". I also turned off "Place or Drag Raster Images as Smart Objects".
I still get the same result. I need nothing smart here. Just let me place images without any smart stuff!
I also went to help and googled. I could not find what I need.
Thank you!

That works!!
Thank you!

Drag and drop text to Pages doc without formatting

Pages '06 allowed me to 'drag and drop' text from another application into a cell in a Pages table, without disturbing cell formatting. i.e. the text would lose all its own styles, and take on those set for the cell. This is just the same as using the Edit item 'Paste and Match Style', but avoids several intermediate steps. This doesn't work in Pages '08, so my question is:
Is there a modifier key or some other way of setting Pages '08 to work the old way?
I would also like to do the same thing into main body text, but even Pages '06 wouldn't do that -- not for me, anyway. Any suggestions would be gratefully received.

What you can do is right-click on your selected text, choose "Copy" from the contextual menu, then go to the app where you want to paste the text and right-click again, choosing "Paste and Match Style" from that contextual menu.......no keyboarding involved, no modifier keys.

Drag and drop a track or album without losing your current library

Hi
This needs addressing ASAP. Totally legal and simple to do...Surely. I have a home PC and a laptop. I have different music albums stored on either. Whats the point in having 2 copies of the same music when i carry my iphone4 where ever i go. My iphone4 is synced to my home PC, i have albums on my laptop which i would like on my iphone. I dont want to swap the entire album as i have tracks on my iphone which i want to keep but i want to drag and drop selected tracks or albums from one library to my iphone without losing what is on my phone already.
Surely if you are logged onto your account, the phone is registered to that account and you have authorised both your home pc and laptop to access your account this should be possible.
This is not rocket science. I own the music on my laptop and the music on my pc, I want to mix and match what is on my iphone4 without syncing my entire music collection. I would like to just drag and drop music straight on to my phone....NOW COPYING SELECTED TRACKS TO YOUR IPHONE. job done, unplug it and now i have a new album added to my current iphone library without updating anything else or deleting any other tracks.
Is this possible....if not, sort it out Apple

It would be nice as completion takes forever when you have several hundred schema and tables. I end up having to type the first 8-10 characters, before a list is even presented, then my tables are so close in name, that the list is long.
I have toad as well, but would rather use sql developer. In toad I can drag and drop or double click to add a schema, table or field. It is way faster and convenient. Without this simple ability, SQL developer is still second rate for me.

How do I transfer files/folders to an external hard drive without "dragging and dropping"?

Hi, I'm having a lot of trouble trying to transfer folders of pictures and individual pictures to my external hard drive (which God forbid isn't an Apple product). I attempted to drag and drop, which usually works. I have also attempted to find an option in any drop down menu which will allow me to import/transfer/etc. the photos from my Macbook to the external hard drive. This is maddening because the hard drive was immediately compatible and I can see everything that's on it already, I just can't really do anything with the content going either way. Is it because I need to compress things? Something like that? Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
William

I am organizing my external HD and want to move files NOT COPY them. How do I drag and drop folder contents without Mac automatically copying them to the "drop" location?

I am sorting out all the clutter and duplicate files on my external HD. In doing this I am moving the entire contents of folders to new locations. Some of these folders cointain gigs of info. I do not want to have to spend large amounts of time waiting for hundreds of gigs to copy somewhere then moving the originals to the trash and wait even longer deleting all of them. All I want to do is move the files up a subfolder, but the way Finder goes aobut doing it can be a 400 GB swing taking hours. How do I just "move" them?

Check out this discussion. Worked for me.

When I do a drag and drop in Finder to move a folder into another folder it makes a copy of the folder in the new location instead of moving it like the help documentation says and like it used to do in Snow Leopard. I have looked all over in preferences for a setting the contols the move/copy outcome of drag and drop and have been unable to find anything. Is this the way Lion is supposed to work?

I did a global change of permissions for the entire documents account in the currrent user account using the get info and apply to enclosed items.
I think what is happening is that the Documents folder normally carries an "everyone deny delete" ACL, meant to protect it from accidental deletion:
$ ls -lde ~/Documents
drwx------+ 6 t1 staff 204 Oct 9 08:51 /Users/t1/Documents
0: group:everyone deny delete
ACLs are special types of permissions that do not show up in GetInfo, but can get propagated if you click "Apply to Enclosed Items" on a folder that carries them. Affected files that acquire that ACL would require password authentication to move or delete them.
I think the following Terminal command (copy and paste it) should remove such ACLs from items within the Documents folder:
chmod -RN ~/Documents/*

Is there a way to move images without dragging and dropping?

I am trying to drag and drop files out of one folder and put into a subfolder in the library module but it wont let me and I am wondering if there is a navigation menu that will allow me to do the same?

Drag and drop should work.
Make sure when you begin the drag, you are pointing at the photo itself and not the grey rectangle around the photo.
There is no menu command.
