Portlet drag and drop

Hi, Is there a way to enable JSR 168 portlet drag and drop(drag from one place to another place) feature. I know we can use oracle composer(page customizable, layout and panal customizable) for that. My requirement is
1. Create a page template(myTemplate.jspx) that has 2 column layout - to restrict 'page developer' (who uses the page template) to use only two columns all the time. Add facet ref to the columns.
2. Cretae a page that uses myTemplate.
3. I want to consume portlets at design time. End user will not be able to add portlets.
4. End user will only be able to drag one portlet from one place to another.
In this case where i need to user oracle composer components(page template or the page that uses it)? If I use composer in page then I cannot restrict to 2 column layout.
Thanks,

What version of webcenter are you using? PS2 or PS3?
Because you are a talking about JSR168 i expect this to be PS2?
"Consume portlets at design time"
This means that your developers will drop portlets from JDeveloper on the page; They will NOT use the resource catalog for this, is this correct?
" End user will only be able to drag one portlet from one place to another"
This is OOTB functionality when you use layoutCustomizable. Placing portlets in another region is called personalization. Adding portlets to pages is called customization.
When you want your users to be able to drag and drop portlets from one place to another, they should only be authenticated. Authenticated users can do this by default. You don't need to do anything special for this.
It looks like your requirements is a description of the default behavior or am i missing something?

Drag And Drop Java Portlets

Hi,
How can we develop Drag and Drop (DnD) Portlets. Does Oracle Portlet provide such functionality.Can someone guide me or have any documentation on how to create Java Portlets that can be dragged arround i.e. just like on google site http://www.google.com/ig. I am using 10.1.0.4. Thanks

Is there any kind of documentation available as how to build this kind of functionality. What API's to use. Lifefray and StringBeans Portal provides DnD functionality so curious if it's also doable using Oracle Portal and if so how to start on it. I am more interesetd in docs. and API's to use for building our own.
Thanks

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
Jeff Graber

Hi
thanks for the advice. However, that is what I had done. Here is the code in the jsp file for the destination portlet and it does not work. If you have any ideas, thanks!

Drag-and-drop in Web Center 11g

I'm running the Avitek sample portal on JDev 11.1.1.3 with Web Center on integrated WLS.
Is it possible to enable drag-and-drop of portlets within the page layout - by an end-user?
I understood this was a feature available in Web Center and not in WLPortal - so has anyone got this working?

Webcenter supports drag and dropping of portlets out of the box. You don't need to do anything special to enable drag and drop of portlets.
The only requirement there is, is that users are logged in and they have granted personlization rights.

How to to drag and drop apple mail into a browser or a webpage?

I want to drag and drop a mail from mailbox to a webpage for uploading.
is it possible to do that?

In the edit page mode, click the pencil of the region were your portlets are. A region is a box with a dotted line. In the first tab you have the ability to select "Allow action". Default this is set to "all". When you set it to "none", your portlets can not be drag & dropped.

I want to Sync my iPhone 4 to iTunes however I get an error message from iTunes each time I connect the phone to the PC saying that I should restore to factory settings. Frustrating because it's already annoying enough that I can't drag and drop mp3's!!!

I have never been so frustrated before in my life with any phone. I find it obnoxious as it is that I cannot simply drag and drop files (especially MP3's) straight from my PC directly into my phone, which I have been used to doing up until now. Everyone who convinced me to get the iPhone has instructed me that my frustration can be fixed by downloading iTunes and syncing it all up via that program (which I have never used before). So, I downloaded the program successfully, however when I connect the iPhone 4 to the PC and iTunes is open, I get an error message that 'iTunes cannot read the content of the iPhone "iPhone" and that I should go to the Preferences tab of the iPhone and select 'restore' to restore this phone to factory settings. First of all, I don't understand why I need to do that. I have already downloaded apps and other important things in the 2 days that I have the phone. I am also scared that it will erase my contacts. This is such a headache. Music is very imporatant to me, but I am getting so frustrated that I don't have freedom over the phone which I thought was supposed to be one of the best out there. I would really appreciate help in this matter. I am sure the phone is great but I am on the verge of taking it back and getting something else.

Hey joshuafromisr,
If you resintall iTunes, it should fix the issue. The following document will go over how to remove iTunes fully and then reinstall. Depending on what version of Windows you're running you'll either follow the directions here:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP

or here:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

When I drag and drop an icon from the address bar to the desktop is does creat the shortcut but will not display the website icon, only the firefox icon, how can I display website icons?

When I drag and drop a website icon from the Forefox address bar to the desk top, the short cut is created but the icon that appears is the firefox Icon. I want to disply the icon from the website that the short cut refers to. I have checked all I can think of in my computer to no avail.

You have to assign the favicon yourself to the desktop shortcut (right-click the shortcut: Properties) after you have dragged the link to the desktop.
You can usually find the favicon in Tools >Page Info > Media and save the icon there.
Otherwise use the main domain of the website and add favicon.ico (e.g. mozilla.com/favicon.ico ) to display the favicon in a tab and save that image to a folder.

Is there any way of dragging and dropping an iCal event showing in week view across to a date in the left sidebar monthly calendar?

Hi, Im not a frequent forum poster, as most of my questions can be found already answered on them!
This is a question Ive had for a long time and it amazes me that no-one else seems to ask it. I check at each OS upgrade but its never there...
Is there any way of dragging and dropping an iCal event showing in week view across to a date in the left sidebar monthly calendar?
I was able to do this years ago in MS Outlook, and utilized it all the time when I needed to push things back, now I have to open the event and select an new date in the drop-down calendar for each & every event I want to move to a new month at the end of the month.
If its definitely not possible, how to you ask apple to consider including it - it doesnt seem like a particularly difficult task.
Thankyou
Andrew.

Andrew,
Is there any way of dragging and dropping an iCal event showing in week view across to a date in the left sidebar monthly calendar?
No, but you can use cut/paste. Cut (⌘X) the event, then click on the week where you want to move the event, and Paste (⌘V).
If you have a suggestion for Apple to change that method use: Apple - Mac OS X - Feedback.

Why does not drag and drop work?!

Hello,
I am trying to implent a drag and drop from a table to an icon representing a trash.
The drop handler fails in converting the selected rows to a list:
com.sun.el.MethodExpressionImpl@87d9c00d javax.el.ELException: java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to java.util.List
Could you help me to understand why? Below are the details.
This is the af:table:
<af:table var="row" rowBandingInterval="0" id="t1"
value="#{bindings.MyView1.collectionModel}"
rowSelection="multiple"
columnStretching="last"
horizontalGridVisible="false"
verticalGridVisible="false" fetchSize="-1"
autoHeightRows="6" width="190"
disableColumnReordering="true">
<af:column sortable="true" headerText="Entry" id="c1"
align="start">
<af:outputText value="#{row.Description}" id="ot1"/>
</af:column>
<af:dragSource actions="MOVE" defaultAction="MOVE"
discriminant="delete"/>
</af:table>
This is the drop area:
<af:image source="Images/empty_trash_32.png" id="i2">
<af:dropTarget dropListener="#{backingBeanScope.DropHandlerBean.dropHandler}"
actions="MOVE">
<af:dataFlavor flavorClass="org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.model.RowKeySet"
discriminant="delete"/>
</af:dropTarget>
</af:image>
This is the failing listener listener (the failing point is bold):
public DnDAction dropHandler(DropEvent dropEvent) {
DnDAction dnda = DnDAction.NONE;
if (dropEvent.getProposedAction() == DnDAction.MOVE) { // delete
RichTable table = (RichTable)dropEvent.getDragComponent();
//determine the rows that are dragged over
Transferable t = dropEvent.getTransferable();
//when looking for data, use the same discriminator as defined
//on the drag source
DataFlavor<RowKeySet> df =
DataFlavor.getDataFlavor(RowKeySet.class, "delete");
RowKeySet rks = t.getData(df);
if (rks == null) {
return DnDAction.NONE;
Iterator iter = rks.iterator();
while (iter.hasNext()) {
//get next selected row key
System.out.println(rks.toArray().length); // the number of selected rows is ok
List key = (List)iter.next(); // here gives: java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to java.util.List
//make row current so we can access it
table.setRowKey(key);
//the table model represents its row by the ADF binding class,
//which is JUCtrlHierNodeBinding
JUCtrlHierNodeBinding rowBinding =
(JUCtrlHierNodeBinding)table.getRowData();
Row row = (Row)rowBinding.getRow();
//delete row;
row.remove();
//activate animation
dnda = DnDAction.MOVE;
return dnda;
thanks.

I did try, I obtained this:
java.lang.NullPointerException
Why NullPointerException?
I don't know if this helps, but consider that the collection model comes from a ViewObject built on three EOs with many fields, although the table only shows one column.
This is the Iterator in my pageDef:
<table IterBinding="MyView1Iterator" id="MyView1">
<AttrNames>
<Item Value="Cod1"/>
<Item Value="Cod2"/>
<Item Value="Cod3"/>
<Item Value="Cod4"/>
<Item Value="Description"/>
<Item Value="Cod5"/>
</AttrNames>
</table>
Any idea?
I will see the Key content with the debugger.

Did my first back up today using external hard drive and time machine now i can't drag and drop

Hi, i did my first back up today using time machine it all went onto my external hard drive fine. Now i cant drag and drop anyhting. I assume ive cahnged some settings in time machine but cant figure it out what to do can some one help ?
thanks

Thanks Pondini but i have closed time machine, removed external hard drive.
Did you eject it first?
Now i cant drag and drop anything on my desk top, or mail or any other application. Ive tried moving folders, documents none of it works. Even moving around documents within a folder, it wont let me chnage the position of files.
That shouldn't be related to Time Machine (especially if the backups aren't mounted).
What happens when you try those things? Do you get any messages? Anything you can post a screenshot of?
Have you tried a Restart?
Does it happen in another user account? (If you don't have one, create one via System Prefs > Users & Groups.)

Drag and Drop (re-order) Thumbnails in Organizer

I am using Photoshop Elements version 5.0.2
I would like to re-order pictures in an order that will make sense for me in my business. I suppose I can go through each pix and change the time on them, so I can then sort by time stamp.
Is there an easier way to do this? I was hopeful that I could drag and drop them in Thumbnail view - but I cannot.
Thank you,
Jamie

>Is there anyway to delete the photos in the main well, without losing them from my collection?
As I understand the design, the main well is intended to be all the photos that you are managing with Photoshop Elements.
Collections are used to display a specific group of those photos in your chosen sequence for any given activity.
I suspect that since you are using a consumer product such as Photoshop Elements for your business purpose, you may need to make some compromises like having a default (the main photo well) display sequence which you see first when starting PSE that is not what you would choose.
This is not bad if PSE does what you want - just additional steps to switch to the Collection view and also to maintain (drag and drop) the sequencing of the collection when you add additional photo files to a Collection.

Problems with ListViews Drag and Drop

I'm surprised that there isn't an Active X control that can do this more
easily? Would
be curious to find out if there is - although we aren't really embracing the
use of
them within Forte because it locks you into the Microsoft arena.

Subject: Problems with ListViews Drag and Drop
I am just curious as to other people's experiences with the ListView
widget when elements in it are set to be draggable. In particular, I am
currently trying to design an interface that looks a lot like Windows
Explorer where a TreeView resides on the left side of the window and a
ListView resides on the right side. Upon double clicking on the
ListView, if the current node that was clicked on was a folder, then the
TreeView expands this folder and the contents are then displayed in the
ListView, otherwise, it was a file and it is brought up in Microsoft
Word. All this works great if I don't have the elements in the ListView
widget set to be draggable. If they are set to be draggable, then I am
finding that the DoubleClick event seems to get registered twice along
with the ObjectDrop event. This is not good because if I double click
and the current node is a folder, then it will expand this folder in the
TreeView, display the contents in the ListView, grab the node that is
now displayed where that node used to be displayed and run the events
for that as well. What this means, is that if this is a file, then Word
is just launched and no big deal. Unfortunately, if this happens to be
another directory, then the previous directory is dropped into this
current directory and a recursive copy gets performed, giving me one
heck of a deep directory tree for that folder.
Has anybody else seen this, or am I the only lucky one to experience.
If need be, I do have this exported in a .pex file if anybody needs to
look at it more closely.
Thanks in advance.

An mp3 file on my computer will not import to itunes by either the drag-and-drop or the Add File to Library method. Can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. My OS is Windows 7.

I purchased an mp3 from a private website on my laptop. The itunes library i sync ipod to is on my desktop, so i copied the mp3 onto a flash drive and then into my desktop in the Downloads folder and Desktop folder as well as the itunes music folder, 3 places. I opened itunes on the desktop and read the instructions for importing music that's already in my computer. Neither the drag-and-drop or the Add File to Library method works. I've tried both ways over and over. Cannot figure out what the problem is. I do note that the name of the mp3 file doesn't show the .mp3 extension, it appears as simply it's title, Eating Healthy, without any extension at all. Could the filename be the problem, or do you have any other idea what I'm doing wrong? My OS is Windows 7, using IE9. Thanks.
ADDENDUM AFTER READING ANOTHER DISCUSSION HERE: I have now tried right clicking the song in Windows Explorer and choosing Open With, clicking itunes. The mp3 plays in itunes but does not add to the library.

I don't have a Recently Added playlist. However, I discovered that the file I had named Eating Healthy was given the name You Can Enjoy Eating Healthy when it copied to iTunes. I'm guessing iTunes pulled the full name of the piece from the internet. Upshot--the mp3 did transfer to iTunes on all 3 tries, but I was looking in my alphabetized list under E, not Y, so I didn't see it there. Thanks for your help.

Select All in a table does not work for Drag and Drop

Hi. I am using Jdeveloper 11.1.1.2 but have also reproduced in 11.1.1.3.
I am trying to implement drag and drop rows from one table to another. Everything works fine except when I do a Select All (ctrl-A) in a table, the table visually looks like all rows are selected, but when I try to click on one of the selected rows to drag to the other table, only the row I click on is dragged.
I tried setting Range Size -1, fetch mode to FETCH_ALL, content delivery to "immediate" but nothing works.
I even have reproduced not using a view object but just a List of beans with only 5 or 10 beans showing in the table.
Does anyone know how to get Select All to work for a Drag Source?
Thanks.
-Ed

Frank-
OK, thanks for looking into that. I also submitted this service request, which includes a simple sample app to demonstrate the problem:
SR #3-2387481211: ADF Drag and Drop does not work for rows in table using Select All
