How to drag and drop a picture into a mask?
I have a text box which has a masked photo in it. I used to be able to click on a picture in my web browser, drag it over to iWeb, and drop it into the mask with one quick and easy motion.
I made some changes to my web site and now I can not do this anymore. I have to drag the picture in, cut it, double click the masked photo, and paste it into the mask. I do this frequently so being able to quickly throw in a new picture is very convenient. I'm not sure what small thing I've changed. Any ideas?

The method you describe sounds like you're stealing images from other websites... please say this isn't the case.

Why cant I drag and drop my pictures into an order I want to display them
Why can't I drag and drop my pictures into an order that I want to display them ? The 'manual sort' option does not seem to be 'lit' nor does the 'reset manual sort' what am I doing wrong please.
ps
Beginning to wish I had stuck with a PC !If you prefer a PC use it. No one here cares one bit
As to iPhoto, unless you take a few minutes to actually learn how to use it then you will never be happy. Same with any new PC program that you do not understand. Or a new car for that matter
A great place to start your education is here. http://www.apple.com/support/iphoto/
As to your specific issue, trivial. Make an album of the photos and manually drag them to the order you want. Events simply do not work that way
Try to drive your car in Park and you get nowhere because that is not how it works. Any time you use a product incorrectly you will have poor results

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!

Do i can drag and drop a picture into a shape through the ipad like the mac?
a
No, it would need to be inserted from the photos app or copy and pasted from another source. It would also help to know what app you are specifically referring to.

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 DohertyNed,
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,

Can I drag and drop single photos into Events?
Hi guys. I've very recently ordered a new Mac that will have iLife 08 on it. Before I get started with it I've got a question about Events. I've been using iPhoto for the last several years, organizing my photos into albums. I've cleaned up my images to around 1,000 photos, and I plan to only use events for organization. (I don't want to use Events AND albums, don't see the point, I'm going to try using ONLY Events.) But I've got a few scenerios that I'd like to throw by you all, to see if they would work, as I'm hoping that they will...
I don't shoot photos into pre-defined "Events", I shoot photos by what I feel like shooting. "Hey, my dog is doing something funny" - There's 3 pictures, or "Wow that's a big spider!" - 1 picture, or "My little neice is doing something cute" - There's 4 pictures. I do not want 450 events, each containing 1 - 5 pictures.
Can I drag and drop single pictures into different events? For example, have an Event called "Friends" with pictures of my friends in it, that I put there? Or an event called "Concerts" with photos taken throughout the years?
I hope I've made it clear what I'm looking to get out of Events!
Thanks in advance for any help.Exactly - I think he will want to matain his existing structure -- people are making too much of the name change from rolls to events.
I have events with one photo and events with as many as 2000 photos -- I like this better than rolls but albums, folders and keywords are still the key to granular organization - events are ust the library to hold my photos
To me it is a small step forward that makes organization much easier (and it was not that hard before)

sunnyWell, I don't really understand the DnD interface so maybe my chess board example will be easier to understand and modify:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=57&threadID=518707
Basically what you would need to do is:
a) on a mousePressed you would need to create a new JLabel with the icon from the clicked label and add the label to the glass pane
b) mouseDragged code would be the same you just repaint the label as it is moved
c) on a mouseReleased, you would need to check that the label is now positioned over your "drop panel" and then add the label to the panel using the panels coordinates not the glass pane coordinates. -
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 OverflowI 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 external text into a Flex component
Hi,
is there any way to allow drag and drop of external text (for
example, selected text from another browser or even from the
address bar) into a Flex component like TextArea? I know how to
drag and drop between two different Flex components but in this
case, the source is external. There must be something I can do to
TextArea like its dragdrop property to allow this feature... any
help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
JoshShort answer: Yes, as long as it is an AIR app.
Browser-based Flex apps do not have access to
ClipBoardFormats, so I'm not sure it is possible to do what I think
you want to do -- have a web-based Flex app that allows you to drag
and drop selected text from other apps. Most possibly because of
the security sandbox that the Flash player runs in.
However, if you wanted to do it in an AIR app, I built this
as an example for you (you can view a "cleaner" version with proper

Drag and drop FLAC audio into iPod to convert and add?
I manually sort my music as albums in folder directories. I have never liked how iTunes wanted to sort my music back in 2005 and I don't like it any more today.
I recently got a 6th gen iPod Nano via the 1st gen iPod Nano replacement program and I am disappointed in how I cannot use Winamp to manage my playlists anymore. Winamp would automatically transcode incompatible FLAC audio into MP3 before transferring onto my 1st gen Nano.
I have my iPod options under iTunes set to automatically convert higher bitrate audio to 192kbps AAC, but dragging and dropping FLAC audio into my iPod gives an error message that prevents me from adding anything.
I thought maybe I had to import my audio into iTunes' library first, but scanning for media adds every audio file including system and program audio files to my library, which really clutters things up. It treats each artist as an album, so compilation albums of 30 audio tracks from 30 artists appear as 30 individual albums in my iTunes library. Most cumbersome.
I am also appauled in how it did not detect or support playback of FLAC audio. I am not willing to convert my entire library into a proprietary lossless audio format just because iTunes wants me to when other programs and I were getting along so well without iTunes and my 1st gen Nano.
Anyway, what I am hoping to achieve is to find a streamlined way to convert FLAC audio files into MP3 or AAC while I am transferring them to my iPod without having to involve another program to manually convert before adding. This is a huge convenience factor for which I am regretting having my 1st gen Nano replaced. I will admit that I am perhaps being overly stubborn here. Maybe I'll just sell this 6th gen Nano while it's still pristine and get a Sansa Clip or something. Apple products have become too stifling and I won't be surprised if there was no way to achieve what I am asking to do here, so maybe this ends up a being more of a rant than a search for answers.foobar2000 with the ipod plugin will allow you to drag/drop FLAC files and when it syncs the ipod, it converts the FLAC files on the fly. MUCH better than dealing with the crappy iTunes interface and having to pre-convert the files. I absolutely loathe iTunes and it just gets worse and worse!

How to drag and drop multi tabs to a new tab group?
When I go to the new feature Tab Groups (shift+ctrl+E), I make a search then some tabs are highlighted but I would like to drag and drop to a new group the highlighted tabs all together not just one by one. Is it possible doing a multi-drag&drop with the CTRL+left mouse button?
I see where you're going. I'm drawn to Thunderbird because it puts open emails in separate tabs, which makes finding a particular open message easier than searching the task bar for an open outlook message. I do see your point that tab happy programmers, probably too young to remember how cool we thought drag and drop was when it first came out, don't think much of it. As with a lot of software, each programmer has a very limited view of how it their program should be used vs how it is actually used in the wild.
People work in different ways. When I schedule an appointment with a client, this is often preceded by a series of emails related to whatever the client wants to discuss. I drag and drop those messages into the appointment window so that on the date of the appointment, I have a nice neat summary of the issues right there in the appointment window. I could use workarounds (save email and then attach to the appointment), but that's like a trip back to Windows 3.0 and it's, if I'm not mistaken, 30+ years later. I guess I'll continue to use Tbird for email and outlook for calendar, not my preferred solution, I'd like to flip MS the bird and cut all ties to outlook, and was hoping Tbird was the solution. Not yet, and perhaps not ever, based on your thoughts. -

Set default import format when drag and drop sound file into multitrack view?
I've looked around the preference panels but cannot find where to set the import settings for dragging and dropping sound files into multitrack view. Some of our computers have correct settings and others do not. Thanks for your help!
GI should have been more specific, sorry... I mean bit depth and bit rate... On some machines this defaults correctly and on other machines it is wrong. Not sure how to set these to downconvert properly by default. Unless it automatically takes the format of the source file, in which case it's just been luck.
Thanks,

Drag and drop from Lightroom into Premiere doesn't work in Windows
I recently switched from OSX to Windows and noticed that in Windows, I'm unable to drag and drop from LIghtroom into Premiere. In OSX, it worked fine.
I do this a lot because it's a time saver. I basically use lightroom to find the photo or video clip I need for my editing project and then just drag in right on to the Premiere timeline. Now I have to do the extra step in Lightroom of "show in explorer", then drag the file from explorer to Premiere. Not really a big deal but just curious why it works in OSX and not Windows.
I'm running latest Windows 8.1, Lightroom 5.4, Camera Raw 8.4, and Premiere Pro CC 7.2.2 (33)
