Drag&Drop from Browser to AIR App

Hi there,
i wonder how it is possible to drag an element from a flash
page in my browser to an air app on my desktop. i've seen the
showcase
of the nickelodeon jigsaw game on adobe.com, but the videos
looks kind of post-processed.
do you have any tipps on how to enable flash/AIR
drag&drop trespassing the browser borders?

Thanks for your answer.
i already tried something like this, but i still have
problems with getting the newly created entity dragged. how can I
position the new entity from my air app directly under the mouse
cursor? so far i didn't find any screen mouse position functions or
properties. If I use a fullscreen, always on top window with mostly
transparent parts, I can't capture the mouse position using
MOUSE_MOVE all the time. Besides, how can I change the focus from
my browser to my air app? I already tried calling
nativeWindow.orderToFront() and nativeWindow.activate(), but the
focus doesn't change when I click the entity in my flash page.
Maybe somebody knows an answer to this ...

Drag & Drop from Outlook into SAP BDS (sales order, deliveries, etc.)

Hello everyone,
I have some problems with Email archiving between SAP ECC 6.0 and Outlook 2007. The overall scenario should look like:
Outlook (drag&drop) --> SAP object like e. g. sales orders as Business Document --> third party archive.
The problem we are facing starts with the false or maybe non existing drag & drop function for Outlook. The direct drag&drop from Outlook only creates a textline in SAPs Business Document. There ist no problem at all if we store the Email on the hard drive in .msg format and afterwards drag&drop it to the Business Document.
Is there any way to skip the latching on the hard drive and communicate directly between SAP and Outlook? Otherwise how do you handle this problem?
Thank you.

Is there no one else who got this problem?

Drag & Drop from JTree (String) to JTextArea (Graphics2D)

Hi everyone,
I want to create a Drag & Drop from a JTree node to any location in a JTextArea. Upon dropping the node onto the JTextArea, I would want to draw a rectangle and the node name.
I've created a custom transfer handler which allows the transferring of text from the tree node to the JTextArea.
Any general ideas on how I can do that are wlecomed.

I've managed to get hold of the JPanel via TransferHandler.TransferSupport.getComponent()
the source seems a bit more tricky. I've tried this
Transferable tr = support.getTransferable();
               DataFlavor f = new DataFlavor();
               f = new DataFlavor(MyTreeNode.class,"MyTreeNode");
               try {
                    Object o = tr.getTransferData(f);...
but the source does not provide a MyTreeNode instance, but something else (a String, I guess)
how can I change this?

Dragging images from browser to desktop - don't appear where dropped

I am not sure it it's a browers' or system weirdness:
in my view options I have set my desktop to not align icons to grid.
when I drag an URL from browser to desktop it appears exactly where I've dropped it.
when trying to do the same with images (dragging from browser onto desktop) they jump/align with other icon/files I already have on my desktop.
this happens only since I've installed 10.6
I've tested with different browsers and realized this only happens with firefox and camino...(in safari it works as expected).
bye,
beatrice

Drag & Drop from the Bridge to CS2 apps

A great feature for the Bridge would be having the ability to Drag & Drop directly from the Bridge WITHOUT opening the files to other CS apps. This could work much like InDesign "Book Items" buy would be for entire suite.

But you have to have the files open. I would like to be able to Drag & Drop, directly from the Bridge. IE not having the file open. The same way Book Items work in InDesign. If you have an EPS file, saved in the Book Items, all you have to do is Drag it into your indd file.

Drag&Drop from Lightroom to Premiere doesn't work! Programming an alternative?

Unfortunally the is no working Drag&Drop ability to drag a videofile from the Lightroom Library into the Premiere Project View.
(This Problem appears only on a Windows machine not on Mac)
This is becaus if you send a (valid) filepath to "Adobe Premiere Pro.exe" as a parameter it doesn't do anything! Why that?!?!?
It makes no difference if you drop a file on "Adobe Premiere Pro.exe" or if you use the windows command shell like "C:/...<path to premiere>.../Adobe Premiere Pro.exe" "myfile.avi" , simply nothing happens - at least with Premiere Pro CS5...
So the Idea is to build an Lightroom Plug-In, that opens an exe-file with the filepaths of the currently selected Viedeos from the Lightroom Library as parameter.
The exe-file should pass the information to an opened Project in Premiere an load the Videos into the Project.
With ExtendScript Tool i can get this behaviour with this code:
var myFiles = ["C:\\01.avi, ..."];
app.project.importFiles(myFiles);
I don't think that the Premiere SDK will help me out, because with that I can only build Plug-Ins that work INSIDE Premiere. I need a Executable that can send information/files to Premiere from Outside. The only thing I can think of is to load the right dll-file and call the function() for importing files to Premiere (I think this is what ExtendScript Tool does ), but I don't know how to start, because nothing is documented about the dlls...
Any Ideas

EDIT:
Ok, I identified the dll which is importing Video-Files to Premiere: HSL.dll
At my pc it is located in:
"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS5\"
The function that is called is named ImportFiles(...)
That's the whole code, reverse engineered:
HSL::ImportFiles
    std::vector <
                std::basic_string <unsigned short, std::char_traits<unsigned short>, dvacore::utility::SmallBlockAllocator::STLAllocator<unsigned short> >,

    const&,
    bool,

    std::vector <

                >&,

                std::allocator<std::pair<int, std::basic_string<unsigned short, std::char_traits<unsigned short>, dvacore::utility::SmallBlockAllocator::STLAllocator<unsigned short> > > >
                >&,
    ASL::InterfaceRef<BE::IProjectLoadStatus, BE::IProjectLoadStatus>&,
    DLG::ImportFromEDL::ImportFromEDLDialog*,
    std::basic_string<unsigned short, std::char_traits<unsigned short>, dvacore::utility::SmallBlockAllocator::STLAllocator<unsigned short> > const*,
    DLG::ImportFromEDL::ImportNewSequenceMediaParamsDialog*
Can anybody "read" that , or anybody know how to get this working with c++?

Drag drop from bridge to InDesign.

I am having problems with getting drag drop to work from bridge to InDesign. I have made an extension that reads information from ouer dam and shows it in bridge. I wont to bee able to drag a node from that data from bridge(It shows fine in bridge with thumbs) to InDesign. I have enabled:
               if(infosetName == "item" || infosetName == "all")
                    infoset.cacheData.status = "good";
                        if(!currentNode.isContainer())
                            infoset.canBeDragSource = true;
                            infoset.canBeDropTarget = true;
in
        dbiModel.refreshInfoset = function(infosetName)
And made
        dbiModel.addToDrag = function(pointerToOsDragObject)
            return true;
        dbiModel.wouldAcceptDrop = function(type, sources, osDragRef)
            return false;
And are able to drag the node but other applications dosent accept it as valid.

It has just never worked that way and I've never seen a request for it either.
In the Control Panel you have got a Bridge Icon
At the bottom of the document window you have the Browse in Bridge
The Default Shortcut for Bridge is CTRL+ALT+o (CMD+OPT+o)
In Edit>Keyboard Shortcuts under
Product area : Panel Menus
Layout Window Status: Reveal in Bridge --- [none defined]
or
Layout Window Status: Reveal in Mini Bridge --- [none defined]
to add your own shortcut to Reveal in Bridge command
But I just don't see a way to go "Place from Bridge"
In fact - in all the years I've been on the forums I have never seen the request.
However you can make feature requests here

Dragging images from browser to a folder force-saves them as .bmp, how to fix?

So here's the thing: I'm using the latest Firefox. If I click an image and drag it from the browser page to a directory/file it saves the image as a .bmp, even if it were .jpg or .gif or whatnot.
Right-clicking and saving the images works fine.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling firefox, downgrading to a 25 (newest is 26) and this: https://support.mozilla.org/fi/questions/833095
Didn't fix.
Downgrading to 25 did fix a sign-in issue related to steam store page, it's back now that I upgraded back to 26, but that's not the main issue here.
I have AdBlock Plus and Nicofox as addons, but disabling them didn't help at all.
I noticed this problem after christmas, so roughly a week ago.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
'''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.''
*Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Windows Storage Server 2008 - unzip with drag & drop from Windows 7 client fails

Hello.
As i asked this question in German and got no answer so i try it in English now.
I have the following problem:
We have a Windows SBS 2008, where we store our files. If somebody opens a ZIP-file on a network share from a Windows 7 Client (64 Bit) it is possible to drag & drop the content (multiple files) to a directory. So far everything works as expected.
We now have an additional Windows Storage Server 2008 integrated in our domain (Buffalo Tera Station WS-QV8/R5), where we also store files. If somebody opens the same ZIP-file on a network share of this server from a Windows 7 Client and tries to drag &
drop the content the following happens:
1. only one file is extracted and to display the file a refresh of the explorer view is needed.
2. when the drag & drop action is repeated a second file is extracted
Not alle files are extracted and there is no error message or indication why this happens.
The behaviour is reproducible from another Windows 7 Client (32 Bit).
If we try to drag & drop the files from the ZIP-file on the Windows Storage Server network sahre to a directory on the SBS network share all files are extracted correctly.
On the Windows Storage Server itself all files are extracted without problmems. Therefore it must be a problem with the combination of Windows Storage Server und Windows 7 Client accessing the files via network shares.
Are there any ideas where this problem could be located? Has anybody the same phenomenon and maybe a solution for it?
Thanks in advance

How to read http cookies from adobe desktop Air app using flex/flash builder in AS 3.0 ??

Im developing Adobe desktop air app where i need to read the session id from the cookie of a http request.
I have found a property called URLRequest.manageCookies supported by AIR so i Hope there should be a way to read the cookies as well. Im Using Flash Builder 4.5
Please provide any reference code or guide me for this research;
searched a lot regarding on this web.
Most results lead to local shared object or reading cookies fr a webpage using javascript and ExternalInterface.
I want to read http cookies not Local shared Object and in a desktop AIR application.
Im using Flash builder 4.5
Thanks

Sorry, but you are at the wrong forum; this one is only for discussions on the forums themselves. The Air forums are here:

Home Sharing between Mac & PC - Can't drag & drop from one to the other.

I have a Mac & a PC. I turned on home sharing and it works well, except that I want to copy all of the music on the Mac over to the PC. With Home Sharing active, you should be able to drag & Drop, but I can't. I read the help article and it says that the computer icon of the remote computer that you are sharing from should be in the left pane under Shared in iTunes. I don't see this. I only see my library.
Any suggestions?

these reads may be helpful:one and two.

Want to use pushViewController and segues from UINavigationController in AIR app on iOS

Ok, this might be a long shot, but here goes.
My iOS AIR app includes a bunch of native screens defined in a storyboard. I have them included by putting them into a native (static) framework, including that framework in an ANE, and adding code to instantiate and add the various ViewControllers to the screen.
I can add a ViewController as a child and get its view to show on the screen with the following obj-c code in my ANE:
[[[[UIApplication sharedApplication] keyWindow] rootViewController] addChildViewController:controller];
[[[[UIApplication sharedApplication] keyWindow] rootViewController].view addSubview:controller.view];
[controller didMoveToParentViewController:[[[UIApplication sharedApplication] keyWindow] rootViewController]];
However, some of the views have child views that use segues and the push stack from UINavigationController. When these screens try to load, I get the following error:
Apr 21 13:50:43 raspberry LKW_Smash[7703] <Error>: *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSGenericException', reason: 'Could not find a navigation controller for segue 'MemberOptionsSegue'. Push segues can only be used when the source controller is managed by an instance of UINavigationController.'
So I attempted to get access to the app's UIViewController, and push the new ViewController onto the stack with the following code:
[root.navigationController pushViewController:controller animated:YES];
But root.navigationController is nil! It looks like the app doesn't have one!
So after all that, my question is this: How do I create an AIR app that includes a UINavigationController and is not simply just a single-view app?

Can't drag & drop from iPhoto into iMovie 10

Am trying to add some photos from my iPhoto library into an iMovie 10 project. I access the iPhoto library and the pictures show up, but when I try to drag/drop or add to the timeline, nothing happens. The little hand shows up over the photo, and even the + sign, but when I try to move or add it, nothing happens.
And, once I select one photo, it seems stuck until I deselect all.
Dragging of clips from the event library doesn't seem to be a problem.
Any advice or help is appreciated.

With a picture selected from the iPhot Library as it shows up in iMovie, if you select a photo by clicking on it once, then click the plus sign, what happens?

AICS4 drag/drop from finder not working

so I'm a huge fan of dragging and dropping my images from the finder into an AI doc, but suddenly i can no longer do this. yes, all the layers are unlocked and visible, so it's not that. they're RGB images (jpgs, psds, mostly) and the document is RGB, so it's not that.
did i accidentally hit a keystroke that would prevent this from happening properly? the ai doc window highlights when i drag over it, but then it just sort of twinkles and does nothing.
i've restarted illustrator, still no go.
any ideas?
thank you,
erika

I can place the image the slow and boring way, one at a time. however, i cannot drag and drop from Bridge either.

Drag & Drop from/to shared libraries

OK...I have home sharing setup, can see all libraries (2 PCs and an ipad), can stream from any shared library. I was hoping i could drag and drop music and playlists from a shared library to my ipad2...but doesn't work....get the 'no' symbol when trying to do that. I can drag and drop to the ipad from the computer that it is connected to....but not the shared libraries. Tried changing sync setting to manual...but same result....cant drag music from shared library to the ipad.
Have checked all settings I can think of. Anyone know how? Am I wanting to do something that is not possible?
