I want to do a drag and drop but don't want it to be a test

Hi,
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I am using Captivate 7.
I want to do a drag and drop but don't want it to be a test. This is for brain storming---not a test.
None of the items to drag are correct or incorrect---they are just ideas. For example the 20 items could be different things you might put in your suitcase for vacation. There are no wrong answers---just your preference.
There are 20 items to be dragged. There is only one drag target. All 20 items can go to that 1 drag target.
I don't want the learner to have to drag all of the items to the target in order to finish. For example, the learner might leave 3 items out because the learner doesn't like those items. I want the learner to be able to hit submit (or any other button) at any time and go to the next slide immediately, not have to finish the drag and drop. Any ideas? 
thanks!

Also be aware that if you add a quiz to the project, that the drag and drop and quiz affect each other.
In a way we have been cheated into thinking that is also a learning tool for repeated attempts. With a quiz in the project it does not work.
I also tried it without the quiz. When learners now use it, the drag and drop will "hang" at times. EMBARRASING when a client phones you with a stuck learning session!!
I have spent hours with the online Adobe dudes. It some or other "buG".
"BUG" is IT code for "we designed something but did not test it well enough and now we pretend that it is some mysterious organic organism that is maliciously undermining our design"

    When I use find file http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30073/find-file (which does tend to find files that "Finder" can't), it's not coming up with any other itunes library files that have been modified in the past week, which I know it would have been - unfortunately, I don't have a very recent backup of the hard drive.  It would be a few months old so it wouldn't have the complete library on it....any ideas?  I'm wondering if restarting the computer might help but have been afraid to do so in case it would make it harder to recover anything...I was looking at this thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4211589?start=0&tstart=0 in the hopes that it might have a helpful suggestion but it's definitely a different scenario.

    I would like to freeze saving to icloud and perhaps transfer some of that data to my own external hard drive.  I don't want to lose anything already stored there, but don't want to purchase anymore cloud space.  How do i accomplish this?

    It seems that saving to iCloud is a default.  My Pages documents automatically save there unless I change to save to destination.  I probably just need help in setting up the cloud.  When I tried to change the setting, though, it told me that if I made the change, all data on icloud would be eliminated and i don't want that.  I would ideally like to save everything on my external HD and not bother with iCloud.  Certainly don't want to buy more storage space.  Thanks for replying so promptly.

  • How do I move photos from iphoto to imovie trailer?  It says just drag and drop but it doesn't take them.

    Macbook Pro imovie 11 trailer says to "just drag and drop photos" but it doesn't work????

    You cannot put photos in a trailer. They are designed for videos.
    However, there is a way around this.
    Go to the Project Library view. Select your Trailer. Now, click FILE/CONVERT TO PROJECT.
    Now you can add photos.

  • Drag and Drop Export Done is called too soon...

    Hi,
    I am trying to drag and drop a JLabel from a JPanel into another JPanel. I am no where near to figuring it out, but just for starters I notice that the exportDone() method is called in my custom TransferHandler immediately when the drag begins. Even stranger, createTransferable() is never called. (I am comparing my code to the DragPictureDemo that I found online). The question is, why is exportDone called immediately? Code below. Thanks. (BTW, any other suggestions about what I'm trying to do would be appreciated. I'm not confident in the direction I'm taking here... have yet to understand the Swing DnD mechanism...)
    From DragPictureDemo, I notice that createTransferable and exportAsDrag are called immediately upon drag, and exportDone is called at the drop.

    No idea whether this will be helpful, but exportDone() is not called immediately if you remove the call to super.exportAsDrag.
    db
    edit Since your earlier post, I've been trying to teach myself Swing DnD, but am finding the documentation confusing and the tutorials primitive... I'd reached a conclusion, which has every chance of being wrong, that I should call createTransferable from exportAsDrag. FWIW these are the methods as of now -- nothing works :-(   @Override
       public void exportAsDrag(JComponent comp, InputEvent e, int action) {
          // count is a instance field to monitor repeated calls
          System.out.println(count + ". " + "exportAsDrag"); count++;
          //super.exportAsDrag(comp, e, action);
          // dragSource is a instance field of type Container
          dragSource = comp.getParent();
          createTransferable(comp);
       @Override
       protected Transferable createTransferable(JComponent child) {
          System.out.println(count + ". " + "createTransferable"); count++;
          // ComponentHandler implements Transferable
          Transferable t = new ComponentHandler(child);
          return t;
       }The commented line is from testing a possible cause of your problem, since my code never gets as far as exportDone() :-(

  • Within Music Library can anyone please explain why when I select the option to sort 'Album by Artist' a number of tracks are being treated as separate albums?  How can I correct this?  I have tried to 'drag and drop' but that doesn't work.

    Within music Library can anyone please explain why after I select the option to sort 'Album by Artist' a number of tracks are being treated as separate albums?  How can I fix this?  I have tried to manually correct by 'drag and drop' individual tracks but that doesn't work.  My music library includes a number of repeat album artwork images simply because not all tracks are being listed under the one album making my library more difficult to use than it should.  Any advise would be appreciated.

    There are quite a few having problems related to container.exe due to updating to 3.6.4 as I see from this forum.
    I don't have video problems, never did, and sounds like if I update, it's going to start having problems..
    It is possible for ff to make a patch so that we can have a user friendly and safe disable (without system code?)
    I appreciate firefox very much and thank you developers for your hard work and care.
    I just don't want to update until this is stable..too risky..

  • Want to use iPod as a disk, but don't want iTunes to start

    Hi,
    I am a college student, and I am home for the semester break. I have some files that I am wanting to transfer to my 30GB iPod from our home computer before I go back to school; but when I plug it, in iTunes always starts. My sister has an iTunes library for her Nano on our home computer, and I don't want to mess anything of her's up. Is there any way that I can set iTunes so it doesn't automatically start when I connect my iPod? Any help would be great.
    Thanks,
    Nate

    I'm afraid you can't change the setting without connecting the iPod since it's in one of the iPod preference tabs. Your iPod is safe as long as it is set to update manually, if it's not then you can use a key combination on your keyboard to prevent it syncing so that you can change the setting. While connecting the iPod to the computer on Windows with iTunes 7.3 or later installed hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys together. This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer: iTunes - Keyboard Shortcuts for Windows
    If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply. The content of iTunes and the iPod are not syncronised in this mode so the two can be different. You can directly access the content of the iPod and play it through iTunes and you can drag and drop whatever you want to the iPod from either library:
    Using iPod with Multiple computers
    Managing content manually on iPod
    Syncing Music to iPod
    Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device: Safely Disconnect IPod
