Cannot drag and drop images from the list of files on the page

I use DW8 for the redesign of a site someone else created in FrontPage and will continue adding content using FrontPage. I'm afraid that another user would not understand CSS formatting and finally break, so I keep a page a table-based layout using the fairly minimal CSS for style.

Some of these pages, when I try to drag an image from the list on the page file DW, the cursor only becomes a stripe diagonal-circle sign ' ", and it will not drop the image. When I create a blank page, with or without a table, I can drag image files and drop them without problem.

There is NO FrontPage special tricks in these pages, by the way - no model or anything that uses FrontPage. Just in case I was missing everything I did "clean up html" command and had him remove DW or non - DW comments, and he found nothing to 'clean up '.

Can someone tell me what it might be on a page that would prevent him drag / drop list file DW8?

Thank you very much!

Theophanes

I still don't know what the problem was, well, just rename the site and its location on the disk, forcing DW to reread everything from the beginning, eliminated the mysterious problem. There is probably an easier way to force DW to do this - I'll look for it if it happens again.

Thanks for your help!

  • Drag and drop images from the Web browser

    I would like to be able to drag an image from a Web browser in bridge. Now I have to open a window on the same folder windows Explorer to drag the images in, and I use them to bridge view. Looks like a pretty easy fix. Would make a huge difference. I am constantly collecting the images quickly for reference, and it's annoying to have to have a dedicated windows Explorer open for drag & drop window.

    Yes, and it works even in CS4, just tried.

    Dame143,

    The author of the tutorial is able to use 30pt font because the size of the image is much smaller than yours. Take your image size down to a width of 400 or 500 px by going to Image > Image size.

    Hi tamia82374570,

    Greetings.

    In my view, it is not possible that you are trying to import images from one application to another.

    • You will need to first export of photo images in a folder on the desktop or any other location
    • Then open LR, click Import and navigate to this location in the source Panel and import the images in LR.

    Hi Satya,

    I did it for you... Please copy the sub set of the code and try to run the application. You can see the application works for you.

    You have made two mistakes - you added event on this object listeners... but it refers to the current object (i.e.; your main application file but not TextInput).

    You so need addEventListeners to your textinput "t1" but not this...

    If you add listeners on it then in the functions of your 'acceptDrop' and 'handleDrop' you get 'dragEvent.currentTarget' as your main application but not TextInput (given that you added listeners to "this"). If you addListeners on t1 then its okay.

    Also, you need to add the eventListeners for the newly added text boxes like I did based on 'box_addChild' to the code below.

    Also in the handleDrop function the line of code where you set the text is bad... .it takes the code below...

    TextInput (dragEvent.currentTarget) .text = stock [0]. JobName;

  • cannot drag and drop bookmarks in FF12

    I just upgraded to 12.0 FF, and I find that I cannot drag and drop bookmarks in the window "show all bookmarks". I used to organize my favorites in this way, order them, put in folders, etc. I can remove bookmarks and I can even 'copy' and 'paste' to move them, but I can't drag and drop them more.

    When I return to FF11, which I had archived, it works fine.

    OK, I have narrowed the problem down to the Torbutton add-on. That upgrade to the latest version! Then, at least for me, everything worked fine.

    Hotmail is truncated normally works with Internet Explorer, so it must be a matter of Hotmail. I tried to delete the cache and cookies of Hotmail (as least I think they were witnesses of Hotmail).

  • Cannot drag-and - drop between host and guest

    12 workstation

    Host = 10 Pro x 64 Windows

    Comments = 10 Pro x 64 Windows

    Everything is entirely up to date, etc. on a Z87 PC chipset.

    I can copy and paste. I can drag-and - drop comments to the host.

    I can't drag-and - drop between host and guest! lol I just get that bar circle icon.

    I'm totally stumped! I tried a myriad of common things...uninstalled/reinstalled VMWARE, then Tools, then even tried to create new guests. I do not have eccentric tweaks or customizations. It is a desktop PC that I use for a laboratory test and my business. I have no other problems in addition to this. Yet, on my other system, essentially a nearly identical configuration, I don't have this problem.

    Any suggestions?

    SOLUTION FOUND!

    The problem boils down to a matter of RUN AS ADMIN. On the HOST problem, it has been set to RUN as administrator. I've not done this! He has just installed that way automatically. Once I stopped that and it ran normally, all was well again. Read below for more details.

    I have two virtual HOST machine configurations almost identical - we'll we'll call HOST 1 and HOST 2. HOST 2 works perfectly without a problem. Drag and drop, to navigate to drives mapped to access NAS stored VMs, etc...

    I began to compare what was similar vs. different between the two. On HOST 1 (problem child even as I could slide properly - drop on), I noticed that I could not navigate to my NAS location where some virtual machines are stored. In the left navigation panel, the mapped drives would appear as drive letters with question marks next to them as you can see in the image below.

    I deleted the mapped drives then mapped them still fresh, did an other CLEAN uninstall VMWARE WS PRO 12. I combed the registry, records and checked for devices hidden in Device Manager. Clean as a whistle! I reinstalled 12 Workstation and returned the problem! I could yet drag-and - drop properly or navigate to mapped drives. Then I noticed the HOST 2 that he was not being RUN as administrator. Really? So, I removed this parameter and TA DA! Everything started to work properly. I don't know if it's a bug, or knowledge common to others but for me it was new. I don't know why, by default, when installing 1 HOST went down VMWARE to run as administrator, but it was.

    Bottom line - do not run VMWARE as an administrator.

  • Cannot view a PDF image on the page - Mac 10.6

    Hello

    Running an iMac with 10.6.8 and Indesign 5.0.4. Who wish to export a PDF as usual via file > export function. However, I get the error message "cannot display a PDF image on the page". "." No idea what it is and have never seen this error before. The only info on the internet reveals error code 0 x 2511 (9489).

    I deleted prefs, closed and reopened Indesign and even restarted the computer. I also re-related images in the document and even created a new document and set up the same thing, but still the same problem. Other documents Indesign studying further, always export correctly.

    The only ones that don't export are 2 documents, both giving the same error message. The two documents are those where a client sent a PDF file, I imported into both of them in a document, Indesign A4 2 pages (each PDF is 48 MB each) and then just added a text layer (using both) that is properly installed on the computer. I essentially have to 'day' dates of courses for the client and add PDF on the site, in all very basic.

    I tried to import a JPEG and PDF files in the file (replacing existing ones) and they export fine.

    All my software is legal and I exported this document before now in exactly the same file > export without any problem (under 10.5 and 10.6).

    Ok... I simply imported PDFs incriminated in Acrobat, optimized and reduced the size of the file that is re-imported to Indesign and export PDF works fine. So it seems that InDesign / PDF Export don't like the big imported PDF? I think that they were initially exported Editor, so perhaps that is the problem or a conflict of files somehow.

    Any ideas on the culprit? I Googled, searched these forums and Apple discussions and haven't found anything. Although I have found a workaround, I get large files to import and export. Thanks for any help

  • Windows XP SP3: Unable to start, System Restore cannot drag and drop ALL the files/folders on the desktop and applications, many unable to start, services cannot search, cannot copy or transfer the any files folders...

    After a recent power outage, my system has restarted with a weird and very common Windows problems range. The system boots fine, all my personal files/folders/apps are intact, have suddenly stopped almost all functions of applications, but many crucial functions of the Windows kernel. Everything seems to point to several Windows Services are unable to start (administrative tools on the start menu). I am running Win XP SP3 and that he was going to upgrade to Windows 7, but I wanted to backup everything in advance. As I have 29 000 hours on my C: drive and a lot of time invested in my system, files, and applications, I am extremely reluctant to risk losing my files and applications by performing any type of reinstalling Windows. Strangely, begin to almost all my apps and all my files are accessible for the most part, but I've lost the ability to drag and drop files, folders or items in a list within the applications COMPLETELY. I can't copy or paste anything, can't move the desktop icons (although I can create new files and folders). So at the moment I can't save anything or even a single file transfer to a hard drive on another storage medium. Immediate reaction: try safe mode and try the system restore safe mode has the same problems (likely due to the large number of system services that inexplicably refuses to start) and the system restore says an error window saying "system restore is not able to protect your computer at this time. try restoring the system running and restart again", which of course NEVER changes. It's the equivalent of getting a tire on your car in the middle of nowhere to find the spare tire flat and the missing Jack. I have used to be fanatical about the definition of the regular restore points, but now can not access them. I have backups of most of my personal files, but over years have lost most of the original installation CD for many of my applications (there are over 100 applications on my system) and I don't want to lose the file associations and architecture of directory tree that it took my so long to implement. I started with Win XP media center edition of first (circa 2004 or almost) and have migrated twice more of 3 hard disks and 2 computers. All this time (5 years of daily use), I have NEVER known so many malfunctions for as many Windows basic and vital functions at the same time. I tried a lot of 3rd party "windows fix - it / registry repair" apps, all have no effect. Everything I can speculate is there was some serious damage to the registry and have no idea how/why so many Services refuse to start. In MMC, more than half of the services actually start and run, the rest all give the error message "the service or dependencies is not start (error 1068).» In addition, very oddly, no. APPS or windows appear in the toolbar AT ALL, but the Quick Launch toolbar works very well, just like the tray button and start tasks (?! )!). If I reduce a window, it "disappears" (Nothing on the task bar), but I can restore it using the alt - tab keyboard shortcut to switch apps, so all applications/windows appear on the list of the Task Manager. A few apps is paralyzed bad, as the player windows media, itunes, etc. (I guess because the service windows audio can not not start), some won't start at all, but 90% of them work fine, except to try to copy or back up all files. I can create new files, however. I'm desperate to find a solution to repair XP3 Win WITHOUT losing my installed applications and files, before I try and switch to WIndows 7. Any help/suggestions/links/advice would be much appreciated. I'm an experienced user, but I've never met so many malfunctions based on the OS at a time. I, however, very painfully learned (years before that my system so complex) it's been almost a re-installation of Windows guarantees to lose my installed apps and files, the directory tree architecture associations.

    Help, please!

    I'll be honest with you - your message is so difficult to read that I don't bother to go through all that. Next time consider using white space, ball or points numbered, etc. to make your message more readable. I stopped reading after your first sentence and only scanned the rest quickly. I do not mean to hurt your feelings; just trying to help you get targeted answers you need for the future.

    The blackout has corrupted your Windows installation. Back up your data now. Since you have problems so much, it would be probably best is to remove the hard drive, put it in a USB drive enclosure and attach it to another computer to copy the data OR start the target with Linux Livecd such as Knoppix system and copy the data to an external hard drive. IOW, do not use the damaged windows to try to get your data.

    You can try a repair that will leave your programs and facility data intact, but with this widespread bribery, it is unlikely to work. However, it takes only a few minutes and is so worth a try. If the repair facility does not work there is nothing to do, but a clean install. And Yes, it will mean that over again.

    Consider buying a UPS to help prevent future damage by power outages. For a single computer, you should look for one in the area of $60 to 80. A more expensive UPS is not necessary. Another good disaster recovery strategy is to buy an external hard drive and Acronis True Image. You can image your system (and can make an incremental backup image so that your image is still current). You can apply your image and be back running that you were in relatively few minutes after a hard drive or Windows to fail.
