Drag and drop work stoppages until the computer restarts

We are experiencing a problem on some machines (Windows 7 SP1 64 bit) where slide - déposer ceases to function in all applications.

For example, in Windows Explorer, you can initiate the drag, but when you release the mouse button to make the 'drop' the drag image/icon remains right on the screen.  Once you press the ESC operation key drag is cancelled and slide it image/icon disappears.

There seems to be a sequence of actions in various applications as the user doest that tests the problem.  Even after closing all applications and even restarting Windows Explorer, disconnect and reconnect the mouse, the problem persists.  A reboot seems to be necessary to solve the problem.  We cannot identify any resource that is used as memory, GDI and user handles objects, etc., to the top.   Windows Process Monitor and Process Explorer have not ben useful.

Do we know if there are a few key resources being locked that prevents drag it / move to fill?

Actually figured this out in part.  It seems to be related to an application that has been hanging mouse events and leaving the passage of events in a bad state of a certain type.

  • Not able to drag-and - drop to import into the project

    Hello

    I'm simply is no longer able to drag and drop images to import the premiere pro cs6 project.

    (File is .avi created from Premiere Pro CS6, common parameters Media Encoder).

    Can someone help me with this?

    Windows 10

    Thank you very much, Bob, of the Peru.  That helped a lot.  It turns out that I had put Premiere Pro CS6 to run as administrator.

    Initially, I started first with the pressed-in shift (to reset preferences), but that didn't solve it.

    That's when I remembered, I tried 'run as administrator '.

    See you soon!

  • Drag and drop of MC to the other?

    Hello

    I created a bunch of MCs since a single MC in the library dynamically.

    Inside the timeline of the MC, I wrote drag and drop code.

    The MC is a parent movieclip, then residing in a scrollpane.

    I was wondering if it is possible to write AS3 to drag the clips into an another movieclip?

    If this isn't the case, the way I got it, is it at all possible to drag one MC container to another MC?

    Thank you

    You will need to create a new listener that monitors for MOUSE_MOVE which can constantly check the position of the cursor from whatever you intend to impose limits.  But the real test by you could be a little tricky to manage in terms of use of a hitTestObject approach since you can't test the object moved against its parent (because it in itself defines the limits of the parent).  You can optionally create another object within the parent that you test over hitTestObject using, maybe we you the alpha 0 for value so that you can't see.

    In all cases, the general approach would be something to the effect of...

    MC3.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, dragIt);
    function dragIt(evt:MouseEvent):void {}
    MC3.StartDrag (false);
    MC3.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, checkIt);
    }

    MC3.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
    function dropIt(evt:MouseEvent):void {}
    stopDrag();
    MC3. RemoveEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, checkIt);
    }

    function checkIt(evt:MouseEvent):void {}
    If (CONDITIONAL LIMITS OUTSIDE GOES HERE)) {}
    dropIt (evt);
    }
    }

  • Drag and Drop works is not in Windows 7

    I have a new problem that has arisen in the last week or two. I can no longer drag and drop my files and folders in Windows Explorer. I have Windows 7 on a HP laptop. It is installed on the computer in last December when I bought (09). I've never had a problem with it since then, and I do not know how to find settings to allow drag and drop or re - activate. I know that I've done before on this machine, several times - and just noticed first in Thunderbird, (my e-mail desktop application), then in Solution Explorer. I recently installed the SP1 (spelling?) a few weeks ago and have installed a few other programs of odds and ends, but I'm sure that drag and drop was working fine until a few days ago.

    Any help would be appreciated. As a writer of genealogy is a must have feature.
    Thank you.
    This happened to me yesterday.

    In Windows Explorer, click a file with the left mouse button and hold down the key. Then press the ESC key. Drag-and - déposer is miraculously revived.

    I think that just by pressing escape works too, but I'm more able to test this. I got this http://it.thelibrarie.com/weblog/2010/06/drag-and-drop-stops-working/

    I can't be bothered reading all to see if this has been mentioned.  The fix for the escape has worked for me with Win 7.  The only thing I have that is unique with respect to colleagues is a wireless keyboard and mouse.  I hope that this has something to do with my problem.

    Thank you Brigitte!

  • Cannot drag and drop a pattern to the color chart

    I have a PC with Windows 10 so maybe that's part of the problem.

    I've been working with a very detailed model and using the function drag / move in the color chart with no problems.  Then all of a sudden it stopped working.  Any thoughts?  I can drag and drop other items in, but not this model more.  Any thoughts?

    Try and select the object complete, then object > model > done. This can generate a more descriptive error message. Will there be a clipping mask in your work?

  • How to drag and drop multiple movieclips at the same time

    Hello world

    I'm a new actonscript 3 and adobe flash CC user and I am building an application but I have been stuck for several days. I have looked everywhere and tried everything I could think of, but I can't yet find a solution to my problem that I thought were pretty basic.

    Basically, let's say I have a rectangle and a circle on the stage. Once I did of the movieclips and assigned an instance name to each of them, I want to be able to perform a drag and drop the Rectangle so that both the rectangle and the circle become movable at the same time.

    For now, I have a mouse down events listener associated with the instance of rectangle, a method startDrag assigned to the rectangle instance and another assigned to the circle. But in this configuration, when I click on and drag the rectangle, only the circle is mobile (only the last line in the code is taken into account).

    I don't know if what I'm trying to achieve is feasible, but any help will be greatly appreciated, thank you!

    The startDrag() method can only work for one object at a time, so in your case the Treaty the last of them, designated the task.  This approach is to temporarily to plant the two objects in a container and then drag the container.

    rectangle.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, fl_ClickToDrag);  When I click on the rectangle

    var dragMC:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
    addChild (dragMC);

    function fl_ClickToDrag(event:MouseEvent):void

    {
    dragMC.addChild (rectangle);        move objects in the container
    dragMC.addChild (circle);
    dragMC.startDrag ();
    }

    stage.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, fl_ReleaseToDrop); When I release the mouse button

    function fl_ReleaseToDrop(event:MouseEvent):void

    {
    dragMC.stopDrag ();
    Rectangle.x += dragMC.x;         Adjust the positions of the objects to their new location
    Rectangle.y += dragMC.y;
    Circle.x += dragMC.x;
    Circle.y += dragMC.y
    addChild (rectangle);                 move back to the scene objects
    addChild (circle);
    dragMC.x = dragMC.y = 0;       reset the benchmark for the dragMC
    }

    All this stuff of repositioning in the Drop function is necessary because when you drag the container, the positions of the content are still on their original coordinates inside the container.  So when you drop them they will resume their x / y positions in their new parent, meaning they go back where they were.  Reposition them where they have been trained to take into account the change in the position of the dragMC.

  • Having problem adding to drag-and - drop operation to move the furniture on a floor plan

    I have the following code. I need to create floor plans where users can drag and drop the furniture on the floor plan.  I have three elements that work but when I convert all of the additional items to a symbol and select movie clip and then add several lines to the code, none work... How the code can determine that my clip I named 'couch' goes to clip 4.  Thanks if you can help, Frankie Foster

    Here is my code:

    var numObjects:uint = 3 / / assign the total number of movieclips that will be dragged

    for (var i: uint = 1; i < = numObjects; i ++) {}

    This ["movieClip_" + String (i)] .addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, clickToDrag);
    This ["movieClip_" + String (i)] .addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, releaseToDrop);

    }

    var selectedMC:MovieClip;

    movieClip_1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, clickToDrag);
    movieClip_2.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, clickToDrag);
    movieClip_3.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, clickToDrag);
    movieClip_1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, releaseToDrop);
    movieClip_2.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, releaseToDrop);
    movieClip_3.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, releaseToDrop);


    function clickToDrag(event:MouseEvent):void
    {
    selectedMC = MovieClip (event.currentTarget);
    selectedMC.startDrag ();
    }

    function releaseToDrop(event:MouseEvent):void
    {
    event.currentTarget.stopDrag ();
    }

    stage.addEventListener (KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, nextQuestion);

    function nextQuestion(event:KeyboardEvent):void {}
    trace (Event.keycode);
    if(Event.keycode == Keyboard.Right)
    {
    selectedMC.rotation += 5;
    }

    if(Event.keycode == Keyboard.Left)
    {
    selectedMC.rotation-= 5;
    }
    }

    It is not a conflict, but it's a waste of code because they are both the same thing.  The first with the right loop is more effective in terms of coding and will make life easier for you because you only need to adjust the numObjects value to have it include more.

    You just need to assign instance names for the rest of your objects in the same way... movieClip_ # code as you (with loop version) should be enough.

  • Need to drag and drop video clips over the keyboard to rotate

    Create a variable to determine the last selected movieclip and allowing to target in the keyboard code.  Here is a smaller version of your code that does this, where drag and drop functions are shared by objects that can be moved...

    var selectedMC:MovieClip;

    movieClip_1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, clickToDrag);
    movieClip_2.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, clickToDrag);
    movieClip_1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, releaseToDrop);
    movieClip_2.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, releaseToDrop);

    function clickToDrag(event:MouseEvent):void
    {
    selectedMC = MovieClip (event.currentTarget);
    selectedMC.startDrag ();
    }

    function releaseToDrop(event:MouseEvent):void
    {
    event.currentTarget.stopDrag ();
    }

    stage.addEventListener (KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, nextQuestion);

    function nextQuestion(event:KeyboardEvent):void {}
    trace (Event.keycode);
    if(Event.keycode == Keyboard.Right)
    {
    selectedMC.rotation += 5;
    }
      
    if(Event.keycode == Keyboard.Left)

  • Drag and drop with audio for the success or failure for each object

    Captivate 7

    I saw Pooja video on at least 20 times, literally, but I can't yet find the complete instructions anywhere. Not even in things, I spent a lot of money on. Ouch.

    ed.png

    I want to drag "ed" & "and" and get a snap sound as they settle. I got it work. But when he moves the words in the wrong location, I want a sound alert, allowing them to know that it is a mistake and do not want the box to accept the term.

    Sometimes video of Pooja, but it does not show how. I'm pulling out my hair. Soon it will get ugly around here.

    Sorry for that, I always use advanced actions and sometimes forget (late in the evening) that everyone knows with them.

    If you want to only play an audio clip when an object is moved and don't need a legend to appear or are happy with a legend of single failure (you can check that a new that), you can replace the command execute measures advanced in the screenshot of the other thread in "Play Audio"... »

    I've used here a clip audio, available with Captivate in the Gallery\Sounds

    Lilybiri

    PS: Since the CP6 I use the word "container" instead of legend because the text can be inserted, not only in the text captions, but also in the forms (my favorite)

    Any ideas?

    Kind regards

    Hi supports,

    Web browser uses only the PDF viewer plugin to view PDF files. It will have the same feature of the player.

    So if you want to use the drag & drop feature, please stick to the player application.

  • TB stops the downloading of emails and will not again until the computer is restarted

    This started happening about a month or two it is a. TB will be fine and download my email. Then he no longer do. It will act like it is tempting, but nothing happens. If I close and reopen, it will not download. When this happens, the only way he'll do it again if I restart my computer. Sometimes daily, sometimes what happens every 2-3 days.

    It has nothing to do with my mail server, that I am downloading. My HDD is running less on space (a still near 60 GB free), but I don't see how that's the problem because it works great even on reboot. It happened after compaction, but not all the time. I regularly delete files from the Recycle Bin.

    Everyone knows this, or have thoughts about what can be the cause of this? He could have something in one of the improvements?

    It has no impact emails, just empty the cache part then you feel safer. I guess the chat conversation may be deleted. I do not use cat myself.
