How realize drag and drop of object

Hi everybody,
I have a matter, I want to realise a
VI who makes drag and drop of indicator like a gauge for example.
For this I used an event structure to
manage the drag and drop. But the probleme is that with this solution
i must put the indicator in my program to set the properties node
(visible or position).
So the number of indicator that i can
drop and drag depend of the number of indicator that i declare in my
soft.
I want to know if there is an other
methode to do that.
Please find attached a VI to show you
my objectif.

How to drag and drop tab nodes between tab panes

I'm working on example from this tutorial( Drag-and-Drop Feature in JavaFX Applications | JavaFX 2 Tutorials and Documentation ). Based on the tutorial I want to drag tabs between two tabs. So far I managed to create this code but I need some help in order to finish the code.
Source
tabPane = new TabPane();
Tab tabA = new Tab();
   Label tabALabel = new Label("Main Component");
tabPane.setOnDragDetected(new EventHandler<MouseEvent>()
            @Override
            public void handle(MouseEvent event)
                /* drag was detected, start drag-and-drop gesture*/
                System.out.println("onDragDetected");
                /* allow any transfer mode */
                Dragboard db = tabPane.startDragAndDrop(TransferMode.ANY);
                /* put a string on dragboard */
                ClipboardContent content = new ClipboardContent();
                content.put(DataFormat.PLAIN_TEXT, tabPane);
                db.setContent(content);
                event.consume();
What is the proper way to insert the content of the tab as object? Into the tutorial simple text is transferred. How I must modify this line content.put(DataFormat.PLAIN_TEXT, tabPane);?
And what is the proper way to insert the tab after I drag the tab:
Destination
tabPane.setOnDragDropped(new EventHandler<DragEvent>()
            @Override
            public void handle(DragEvent event)
                /* data dropped */
                /* if there is a string data on dragboard, read it and use it */
                Dragboard db = event.getDragboard();
                boolean success = false;
                if (db.hasString())
                    //tabPane.setText(db.getString());
                    Tab tabC = new Tab();
                    tabPane.getTabs().add(tabC);
                    success = true;
                /* let the source know whether the string was successfully
                 * transferred and used */
                event.setDropCompleted(success);
                event.consume();
I suppose that this transfer can be accomplished?
Ref javafx 2 - How to drag and drop tab nodes between tab panes - Stack Overflow

I would use a graphic (instead of text) for the Tabs and call setOnDragDetected on that graphic. That way you know which tab is being dragged. There's no nice way to put the Tab itself into the dragboard as it's not serializable (see https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-29082), so you probably just want to store the tab currently being dragged in a property.
Here's a quick example; it just adds the tab to the end of the current tabs in the dropped pane. If you wanted to insert it into the nearest location to the actual drop you could probably iterate through the tabs and figure the coordinates of each tab's graphic, or something.

Drag and Drop custom objects

Hi guys.
I just finished reading the Java tutorial on Drag and Drop at http://download.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/dnd/index.html.
Unfortunately, there is no note about how to drag and drop a custon object. There is something said on DataFlavor, but not enough to help me.
So I would appreciate it if anyone could tell me the steps to follow when dragging and droping a custom object.
Best regards.
Edmond

I think we can help you, but please post some example/code of what you are trying to achieve.
I made D&D with custom objects, custom icons, etc. and is not so hard ... like I said, post some code ...

Drag and dropping database objects in Jdev

I evaluated Visual Cafe and deciding wheather to go with VC or JDev. One of the cool things I noticed in VC is that one can drag and drop database objects in the form using DBNavigator. I haven't seen anything similar in JDev 3.1. Does this or something similar exist in JDev?
Regards,
Mark

Mark,
Yes, the DB Navigator in Visual Cafe may provide a nice simple look at the database Tables - but so does JDeveloper's Database Navigator - VC may excel in the Drag and Drop functionality - but this is not the real objective. Let me explain...
When creating a real enterprise level application in Visual Cafe, you begin to discover that DB Navigator along with it's nifty Drag & Drop is no match for JDeveloper's unprecedented level of database integration. JDeveloper's Database related integration includes (but not limited to):
- JDevelopers Database Navigator
- Integrated SQLJ environment
- Tight Business Components for Java (BC4J) integration
- Wizard driven Form generation (thin & thick)
- DAC Controls / InfoSwing components
- Named Connections / Connection Manager
- WebBeans / JSP Element Wizard
The closest thing in JDeveloper to what you are referring to in VC is JDeveloper's support for the Design mode which allows you to design both graphical and non-graphical elements. In particular, JDeveloper allows you to design your InfoSwing and InfoProducer components using the Designer - by selecting the component (JavaBean) from the Component Palette and then [Dragging Optional] Dropping it on either the Design Canvas or the Structure pane (lower pane of Navigator window).
For non-visual elements (such as InfoProducer elements), the Structure pane allows for Creation via Drag & Drop and allows for property setting by using the Property Inspector (Since it is a JavaBean...).
There are many reasons why JDeveloper provides a much richer and more productive development environment than Visual Cafe. Most have to do with seeking a complete enterprise level solution. JDeveloper adresses the enterprise level application developers needs directly with integration of elements from Tools & Wizards to the integration of a complete application development framework - Oracle Business Components for Java - No other tool can provide you with such a rich and productive development environment.

How to drag and drop between portlets?

Howdy!
Could someone please be kind enough to show me how to drag and drop data between portlets. I want to select an icon, drag it to an application and launch the file associated with the icon in the application.
I can do it within a portlet with some js functions but when I try it between portlets (on the same page)I see the forbiden sign.
Thanks

How to drag and drop another swf or fla into a template?

I am building a flash website for a friend. We are using templates he purchased at flashden.net.
I normally use wordpress, joomla and other such systems and am familiar with html, php, cgi and such.
This is my first time dealing with a flash template.
I have downloaded the trial version of the software and he wants to purchase adobe flash professional for me
So that we can edit the template and add features he wants in the future.
The website that sells the templates says you can easily drag and drop addons to templates in flash
but I am not finding it so easy. Is there somewhere online where I can find a tutuorial on how to step by step
drag and drop flash files into another template etc.?
Also, where can I find good tutorials in general? I have downloaded adobe flash for dummies it is not as indepth as I need
to get a handle on this software.
Thank you to anyone that offers me any advice,
David Doherty

Ned,
Thank you for responding.
Flashden.net does claim its a simple drag and drop operation to do this but they have little to know information on the site about the subject and
having difficulty with the sellers on step by step instructions. They claim it's easy it may be.
The person I am building the website for had a bad experience with one of the sellers who refused to offer anything but basic instructions and claimed the cost of the software was not worth his time.
Here are the instructions that were provided:
Open news_rotator.fla
Go to library.
Select and copy NewsRotator movie clip.
Paste it into your own project’s library.
Now, you can drag and drop it into your own movie clips.
Use news.xml to add/remove headlines.
As you can see from what your telling me this is insufficent information on how to drag and drop this flash into another flash template.
I will attempt to contact other selers at flashden for information as I have other flash templates we have purchased.
Thank you,
David Doherty

How to drag and drop a picture at run time in a window displaying pictures?

How to drag and drop a picture at run time in a window displaying pictures on the front panel. The main thing is that the window is displaying frames continuously?

vivman,
So from your description you have a picture control where you've already created an image and you'd like to drag an image around inside of the picture control. This can be done although it is going to take a significant amount of research and programming on your behalf. You can use the drag event in the event handler to find out when the drag occurs and where the cursor is. Then edit the picture as you move your mouse so that when you drop the picture gets updated.
The even structure is a somewhat advanced topic and the drag and drop feature is one of the more advanced uses of this structure. I would search the example finder (help>>find examples) for "event" and "drag" to see how to use these events. Also you'll want to look at the examples for the picture control.
Sounds like a cool project! Check out Darren's Weekly Nugget 10/30/2006 this topic (http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=212920). It might prove useful.
Good luck!

Hello, if you had this message you had created BP....
Now you don't have to user USERS_GEN this transaction is used only in first action, when you create the user in R/3 and then you pass this user to EBP in the organizational structure.
Now you have to:
1) Go to PPOMA_BBP
2) Double click on organizational unit that you want to put this user (purchasing organization or purchasing group box for example)
3) Select assign button in the top of the functions in the transaction
4) Click on incorporates -- position

Drag and drop custom object

Hello,
I am trying to create a GUI where the user will be able to drag an object (which I have created) from a toolbar button onto a JPanel. I have tried the sun tutorials to no avail. I am unsure exactly what code I should be writing to enable this functionality. I have written a dragmouseadapter which enables drag and drop from the button. I have also written a TransferHandler and Transferable for the object, but again I'm not sure how I should be using these. Can anyone advise me? Hopefully in a sort of step-by-step instruction for setting this up. Thank you.

You wanted to drag and drop a custom component and you said its done using dragmouseadapter!
TransferHandler and Transferable are used to transfer the data between the swing components.
Now, what you want to do? So, we can help!

How to drag and drop events across months while in month view?

Is there a way to drag an event across months when the view is set to monthly view? I know the events can be dragged and dropped across the days in the month on the screen, but how can I carry through the end of the month - there does not seem to be a way to move the screen view to the next month while the event is being dragged!

Hi,
You can do it with keyboard shortcuts.
Select the event. Press Cmd+X. Press Cmd and right or left arrow (depending if it is forward or back in months) until you are in the correct month. Press Cmd+V to pase on the same day in the new month.
Best wishes

How to drag and drop PDF into Word with Reader installed.

I am trying to drag and drop PDFs into MS Word. I have Reader installed. Every time I get the following error:
I notice in the Task Manager that AcroRd32.exe runs. I know I can do the long method...Insert Object, etc, but that's way too time consuming for multiple files.
What do I need to do so I can just drag and drop?
David

I want the inserted file to be an icon.
If only closing Reader were the simple answer. When I drag & drop, Reader starts up in the background (hidden), then closes on its own as well. Even if I have another PDF viewer installed and set as the default viewer, AcroRd32.exe still launches for the drag & drop process. The only way I have found to make it work is to remove Reader completely. I don't want this to be the solution.
Is there a reason Adobe has caused this behavior? With Reader 8 installed, I am able to drag & drop just fine. I don't understand why Adobe wants to alienate its users like this.
I appreciate that you're an MVP, but does Adobe have a response or solution?
