Hide Window Contents While Dragging in OB3?

I know it was possible with OB2 (session.screen0.opaqueMove: False) but is there a hidden command somewhere that does the same thing in OB3?
Maybe it has something to do with the <drawContents> command?
Thanks.

hi
I am sorry my description was not so precise as it should be.
Our applications use MDI window system manager where the document windows always are displayed within the MDI application window frame.
An Application window is OK. Problem is with the document windows.
Only a frame of a document window is moving while I am dragging it to some other position by the mouse.
The content of the window appears at the new position when a mouse button is released.
This behaviour is new for me at web based forms. The same operation acts differently at the old application (client/server forms 6i).
A dragged document window is moved with its content.

Disabling 'Show window contents while dragging' also disables window snap - is there a workaround?

When I disable 'Show window contents while dragging' in Performance Options, it also automatically disables the ability to snap windows the left and right and corners by dragging them. I have an older computer, and disabling this really improves the performance,
but I'd really like to keep the ability to snap the windows around, as it's one of my favorite features.
Is there a way to just disable showing window contents while dragging without disabling the window snap feature?

Hey there. I've been trying to figure out why my snap wasn't working, and this is the only post I've found that mentioned it.
I found snap wasn't working on my machines sometimes and realised it happens after I start an RDP session which disables the "show window contents while dragging" option, but then doesn't seem to enable it properly after the session ends.
When I check the option, it is already ticked, so I need to untick and re-tick, then apply and snap starts working again.
I don't know if there is any connection with the "Prevent windows from being automatically arranged when moved to the edge of the screen" option under the mouse ease of access settings.
It does seem like a new issue though as it doesn't happen under Win8

Show Windows contents while dragging disabled after standby

I have noticed that the option "Show windows contents while dragging" gets disabled after I close the lid to put the machine into standby (hibernation disabled) and then open it again. Does anyone know what to do in order do disable that annoying feature?

The way to solve this problem, is demonstrated by the following code:
JDesktopPane desktopPane = new JDesktopPane();
desktopPane.putClientProperty("JDesktopPane.dragMode", "outline");This will then set all of the internal frames to outline mode when the frames are dragged instead of sluggishly drawing the components with the internal frames when dragged.

'Show JInternalFrame Contents While Dragging'

hi,
I have a question I have an application that has internal frames, Basically it is a MDI Application. I am using JDK 1.2.2 and windows 2000. The question is that when you go to the desktop right click properties and in Effects tab you uncheck the 'Show Window Contents While Dragging' checkBox. Now when I run my application and my parent window that is a frame pops up, if I drag the window i.e. my parent frame it doesn't dragg the contents onlt thw windows border is dragged, means it doesn't repaints that is fine. But when I try to drag one of the internal frame it shows me the contents inside the internalFrame being dragged too and I don't want to see these contents while internal frame is being dragged. So how can I make my application not to show the contents inside the JInternalFrames not to be shown while dragging the JInternalFrame. Any help is really appreciated.
for an example I have added a code example to see the effect that I got from the forums just for an example to show. If you have unchecked the option 'Show Window Contents While Dragging' in Effects tab when you go to the desktop right click properties and the Effects Tab or in the controlPanel dblClick Display and go to Effects tab and uncheck this checkBox. Now run this example and see when you drag the main window contents inside it including JInternalFrame doesn't get dragged just the boundry of the dragging frame is shown. Now if you try to drag the JInternalFrame. Contents inside that are dragged too. And I don't want this behavior. I don't want to see the contents.

CS6: How to display image contents while dragging/resizing?

CS6 Illustrator, Windows 7 64bit
Hello all,
I'm a IT tech trying to help out one of my users, so I am not proficient in Illustrator by any means. With that being said, I was wondering if there is a way to display the contents of an image while you are dragging or resizing the image?
Thanks, Shaun

It should already show the outline of all the shapes while moving or resizing. As far as I know, you can't see the full color image while doing transformations. It would be unusably slow for some images.

Xcode - show contents while dragging, scrolling

I have a new 13" rMBP with Xcode installed. So far no problems, except...
there is no animation when I drag items, or scroll or resize the application. For example, when I scroll a list inside Xcode, the cusor moves but the list doesn't move until I stop scrolling. Also, if I drag a button it doesn't show up under my cursor and move with it. Instead it appears only after I place it. Additionally, if I resize or move the Xcode window, it doesn't show it moving with my cusor. It only updates its position after I stop moving.
And to be clear, I'm refering to the Xcode application, not one built with it.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
All other programs behave fine.
Thanks

The way to solve this problem, is demonstrated by the following code:
JDesktopPane desktopPane = new JDesktopPane();
desktopPane.putClientProperty("JDesktopPane.dragMode", "outline");This will then set all of the internal frames to outline mode when the frames are dragged instead of sluggishly drawing the components with the internal frames when dragged.

Updating window components WHILE dragging the mouse

How do I update a whole window (JFrame), including it's components, during the following scenario:
1. mouse pressed - on any of the window's boundaries
2. mouse moved to a final position.
Currently the components of the window do not change until i stop moving the mouse.
I can't yet find an Event for clicking the mouse on the window's borders.

Check out my Resizeable code. This may be exactly what you are looking for. I've also included code for Draggable, which you might be interested in

A bug in Hide Caption Titlebar Plus (2.4.x) causes browser borders to toggle and window content to jump and no addon setting affects this. Can I do anything to fix this except disable the addon?

Hide Caption Titlebar causes the window content to be displaced when mousing over certain areas and controls. These areas includes mousing over the left window edge as well as leaving any control on the topmost area (buttons, location bar, search bar or tab).
When this happens the window content is shifted right and up, approx 10 and 5 pixels, respectively, and a border to be displayed around the full inside of the window area, overwriting existing contents, the border being thicker to the left and bottom, and thinnest to the top. This border disappears after about half a second and the content is shifted back to its original position.
This bug has followed me since FF4 and only disabling the addon makes the glitch go away.

ATA bus error means that data corruption occurred during transmission over ATA bus (SATA or PATA). This type of errors can be indicated by

On some controllers, command timeout. In this case, there may be a mechanism to determine that the timeout is due to transmission error.
Unknown/random errors, timeouts and all sorts of weirdities.
As described above, transmission errors can cause wide variety of symptoms ranging from device ICRC error to random device lockup, and, for many cases, there is no way to tell if an error condition is due to transmission error or not; therefore, it's necessary to employ some kind of heuristic when dealing with errors and timeouts. For example, encountering repetitive ABRT errors for known supported command is likely to indicate ATA bus error.
Once it's determined that ATA bus errors have possibly occurred, lowering ATA bus transmission speed is one of actions which may alleviate the problem.
I'd also add; make sure you have good backups when ATA errors are frequent

How to store movie contents while keeping same music library

Pretty much what i wanna do is that to save music in my computer but keep my movie contents in external hard drive. How do i do this?
Thanks in advance

Put the movies on the external drive. Hold down the option key while dragging them to an iTunes window which will leave the files where you put them. Of course the movies will show as broken links iif you do not have the external turned on when starting iTunes, but the links will repair themselves if you turn on the drive and restart iTunes.
My preferred method is to make a separate library for movies and store this on the external drive. To do that, start iTunes with the option key held down.

How to remove or hide Name column while upload document in document library

Hi All,
In below print screen the first column Name* which always show when I'm going to upload the file which I don't want. It will be really help full if you provide some solution how to hide this column while uploading the document. Its really confusing the users
when they are going to upload the document in document library.
I already tested below steps. After clicking Document Content Type every column is clickable except "Name" column.
Go to Document Library settings -> Advance settings -> Allow management of content types -> check the box
Now go back to Document Library settings -> Under content types -> click Document content type -> select the column -> Hide this column
Every column is clickable except "Name" column so unable to resolve this issue. Please help.

Although the documentation says you can copy Time Machine backups in the Finder, it's very slow and sometimes doesn't work at all.
Launch Disk Utility, open the built-in help, and search for the term "Duplicate." Follow the instructions. All existing data on the destination volume will be erased. That shouldn't be a problem, because you don't want to mix backup and non-backup data on the same drive anyway. Turn Time Machine OFF in its preference pane while copying the volume.

Another option is to temporarily change your view to outline mode, when your done switch back to preview mode. Ctrl-Y or View>Outline {View>Preview} The menu option will change depending on which mode you are in.
And another option, double click on the object in question to place it in Isolation mode. You can now edit to your hearts content. When done, click on the gray border at top of document.
So as you can see there are multiple ways of accomplishing the same thing.
