Several Drag and Drop, several targets. CS5

• Newbie request for assistance with several drag-and-drop & multiple targets

  I know that this question has been asked a million times, but I get always very well the solution.  I know that the solution called for me the use of tables in a part of my code, but I have problems understanding how to implement it.  I use Flash CS 5.5 with AS3.

  I have a flash drag-and-drop file which is divided into 4 distinct zones on the stage.  On each box, there are 7 places, for 7 different "puzzle pieces".  The first two spaces on each quadrant have very a very specific order for the correct puzzle pieces, while the 5 additional places on each quadrant also have specific parts, but the order is not important.  I have included my code below for reference (note that I have not all instances, finished yet).

  Basically, in code that's been created, the following bodies have specific targets with specific command:

  D1_1_mc, D1_2_mc, D1_1_mc, D2_2_mc, D3_1_mc, D3_2_mc, D4_1_mc and D4_2_mc.

  All other instances, such as D1_3_mc, D2_3_mc, D2_4_mc, etc. have specific quadrants on which they need to fall, but what about the last 5 'spaces' in each quadrant, the order does not matter.  I know that I can continue to do what I do, but I would have preferred that the last 5 pieces on each quandrant do not have to be in a specific order.

  You can provide any assistance is greatly appreciated!

• MovieClip only, Drag and Drop to multiple targets

  So I've been sitting for the last few hours trying to search the Web for solutions to be able to drag and drop a MovieClip between multiple targets. I have no idea and I am struggling to find something that will help me with this. This is for a class assignment slide / move and I would like to help, please let. This is the general pattern.

  The scene is a multiple-choice questionnaire. There are 3 statements aligned next to 3 boxes, these are my targets. A movieclip appears in the corner, that's the question I want to activate him drag / drop in one of the 3 targets. These targets are named separately as target1_mc, target2_mc and target3_mc. The movieclip that is the 'selector' for the multiple choice is named selector_mc.

  I only know the basic drag and drop the script that has been taught in class, but it's only for one target, not 3. A picture has been provided below. Again, selector_mc is the blue square in the upper part of the screen. Targets (target1_mc, target2_mc, target3_mc) are on the right side of the screen. I want to leave this blue square to be able to drag and drop on targets and areas nod to one of them, invoking a response to it.

  

  selector_mc.origX = selector_mc._x;

  selector_mc.origY = selector_mc._y;

  {selector_mc.onPress = Function ()}

  this.startDrag ();

  }

  {selector_mc.onRelease = Function ()}

  this.stopDrag ();

  {if (Eval (this._droptarget) == target1_mc)}

  do something. Red Dragon has been selected

  This ._x = target1_mc._x;

  This ._y = target1_mc._y;

  } else

  {if (Eval (this._droptarget) == target2_mc)}

  do something. White Dragon has been selected

  This ._x = target2_mc._x;

  This ._y = target2_mc._y;

  } else

  {if (Eval (this._droptarget) == target3_mc)}

  something.blackdragon has been selected

  This ._x = target3_mc._x;

  This ._y = target3_mc._y;

  } else {}

• Captivate 8 Drag and Drop several legends of text for your comments

  Hello

  I am creating an interaction with an element with which the learner can drag for four different images representing the different categories of data classification.  The idea of the interaction is for the learner to discover each of the four different categories, by trial and error.    I want them to provide comments through text captions that the answer is right or wrong, but each piece of comments will be different and the user should be able to drag the item several times until they found the right answer.  I can't fwork how to do this.

  I just upgraded to Captivate 8 week last, after having previously used Captivate 5.   Therefore, I've never used the installation drag - d├⌐poser and I don't know if he's going to do what I'm trying to achieve or if it's something I could achieve with shares advanced instead, or if it is not possible to do. I tried searching for similar topics, but either did not understand the answer or scenarios seemed different.  I don't really know where everything is still 8 Captivate, and while I have used certain actions in Captivate 5 tip, I'm not that comfortable with them, so simple is good.  The interaction doesn't have to be reported on.

  Is anyone able to help me please?

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  Hello

  According to my understanding, you have a source element that can drag and drop on 4 different targets (different images). For every drop of a sort of legend should appear on stage the feedback to the corresponding user from the target source. (Correct me if I'm wrong)

  This can be achieved with Drag and drop interaction.

  1. Insert the source 4times and overlap each other (since you can drag and drop 1 number 4 times, you must have this element to work as a source of slippage 4 up to 4 items).

  2. make the 4 elements as drag source and group them into a single type. (With the help of add option)

  3. you have your 4 images on stage and Mark as targets of drag.

  4. Insert the rear power legends and put them near their targets. Disable their 'Visible output' flag on Bill pro forma.

  5. now match the Correct ANS on stage.i.e of one of the source type to a target correct years.

  6. Select each target and open their box "Actions of the object". (from Panel drag / move)

  7. uncheck the ' accept all the ' option and the value of count 1. Add the action of 'travel' to show their legends of Feedback now under Drag source Type. (which were hidden). This should be through "Advanced Actions.

  8. now after for each target open the dialog box 'Good years' drag and drop the Panel. (it will be under options and so visible from the source or target is selected)

  9. here under the table, you can see that the value of count is 4. This is to reduce the value to 1. (double-click to change)

  Interaction is now ready. Please don't answer if that's what you wanted to achieve and if you do all the steps above.

• Several monitors, drag and drop questions

  Windows 7 Edition Home Premium. Running two monitors with extended desktop. With several windows open, I try to drag and drop items between windows, to move files or to copy text from one place to another, for example. After that selection is made, as soon as I move the mouse to drag, all windows size, shift to different areas of the desktop (s) to decrease and darkens slightly. The mouse arrow becomes a crossed circle.

  I tried using a non Aero theme without effect and am unsure if this is a windows problem, a problem of mouse or a monitor problem. I also made changes but advanced Visual effects, that does not work. In this screenshot, the Firefox window is full-screen on the right monitor, Thunderbird is full screen on the left and the other windows are different sizes on both. I am trying to drag and drop a few folders and that's what I have.

  Thanks for your help.

  

  I was able to troubleshoot and resolve this problem on mine. He was unrelated to monitors, etc.

  The unusual behavior occurred during left click drag and drop operations. Using a different mouse, I found normal operations. After some research, I found a dark environment on a Logitech mouse. Using setpoint, I disabled the application switcher function and monitor / several window performance and behavior returns to normal.

  Thanks for trying.

• Several drag and drop - when the correct triggers something

  I am very new to Flash, so I hope that what I try to do is not beyond my capabilities.

  I want to create a game in which you have to drag and drop three correct items for a target area. When the three correct items are removed, the game should move forward to the next part.

  I tried to get help on this, but I don't know what exactly I should look for (IE what terms, keywords).

  Any help would be much appreciated, even if it's just to tell me the terms Flash I need to point me in the direction of assistance.

  Thank you!

  Here are a few terms to look on...

  startDrag()

  stopDrag()

  _droptarget

  hitTest()

  If you search Google using terms such as "StartDrag AS2 tutorial", you may be able to find something that describes everything what you want for your design

• Drag and drop several times

  Is there a way to make an article, that can be move on stage mulitple times? While making beats in music applications. You select a sample and drag it to the stage. Is this possible?

  Yes.  What you do is create a new instance of the object when you click on the sample and have your code target the instance newly added for drag-and-drop interaction.

• How to move several JPEGs from one file to another not to drag and drop.

  I'm a prolific snapper and need to move from an intermediate file jpeg images to a monthly file without the risks of drag and drop. Anything involving pictures would be useful.

  Copy / paste? What dangers drag and drop represent them?

  Your question is vague. Is it a complete folder of images? Or a selection from a folder of images?

  Some possibilities: Automator, Hazel, AppleScript, you can do even in applications like Lightroom if you wish.

  But hard to advise without some details.

• Drag and drop - lots of sources to a Drop target

  I have a D & D built scenario where I have 13 objects potential drag, enter a single drop zone. I have the set drop target to accept all the potential that they may all be considered "correct" its a learning experience, not a question of quiz, as well as several items can be deleted. I want to count to 5 and then offer the opportunity to continue to the next section.

  I wonder, to simply count items 5 (in any combination), I would just do a conditional action called "correct" and then set it to zero... and then when an article is accepted, a tip action sets 'proper' fix + 1. and then a conditional action would trigger the 'next' button and the message when correct was equal to 5?

  I did something similar from the selections with buttons, but not with the drag and drop. Does anyone have an overview of how to count the elements correctly deleted? When my account hits 5 fell, I want to bring up the 'Thank you now extend' option.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  It is a possible workflow, I used a tip action, but if you want to do this more than once, or to different numbers of counter, I propose to create a joint instead. Will try to explain my work flow (did not use the 13 7 do but drag sources, my account was created to3):

  1. Create a v_counter variable user, with the default value 0
  2. Create interaction D & D according to the normal procedure, BUT do not forget to assign a type to the drag_sources; that will make it easier not only to create the interaction (you need only a single link from 'type' to the target) to affect the action. I've created a «Ellips» type
  3. Create the message appears when the user drags the correct number of objects, and the next button, but both are invisible in the properties panel. I have marked their 'Star' (for the message) and BtNext
  4. Create an advanced (or shared action) which will be conditional with two decisions, the first decision is a Standard measure simulated to increment the counter. Then, check the meter and displays the message and button if the number is correct.
  5. Assign to this fast action to the action object column (see Format tab for the Actions of the object in case button you are on CP8) for the type.

• Drag and Drop 2 objects 1 target

  I'm relatively new to Flash and try to create a drag and drop.  I followed the tutorial here (http://monkeyflash.com/tutorials/flash-drag-and-drop/). A change that I made this tutorial was having the object disappear when it is deposited on the target.  By following these instructions, I was able to build a drag and drop of an object to a target successfully.  My question is what do I do if I want to have several items to go to the same target?  For example in the tutorial that happens if I added a second square object and both wanted to go to a target square.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  As long as the target is always available as a target, you can drag to as many objects as you want (one at a time).  To help do that, when you drop an object on the target and make disappear, either to do this object fall go far (removeChild (dropped)) so that it does not block the path or move the target above the object dropped (addChild (target)).

  We have to limit them by dragging to the area inside the canvas

  object.startDrag ();

  function mouseUpHandler(evt:MouseEvent):void {}

  var obj = evt.target;

  obj.dropTarget will give us the reference to the form of

• Drag and drop, 1 share of different sur-succes drag Source, 4 Drop target, for each. Is this possible?

  Hello.

  I created an infographic of type board game and wants that the participant to be able to enter the game room, then drop it into different spaces on the Board, each holding to another slide. I need interaction drag - déposer so that they can pick up and drop the piece. Now, what I need is for each target to have a different action, but even if I add each one to a different group, if I change an action for one, that it applies the change to all drop targets.

  Is there a way to get around this?

  In addition, once / if possible, I would like to add a "back button" on each of these slides and would need when the participant returns to the boardgame slide, they can move the piece to a different drop target to read the following description. I think that the best way to do this would be to make all the "wrong" answers, while the game piece is not stuck once they have fell on a drop target "correct." Please correct me if I'm wrong.

  If I understand you correctly, I think that I thought about it.

  1. Create your Drag and Drop, as you would normally
  2. In the Panel of Drag and Drop, select the Options tab
  3. Click on the button set the correct answers
  4. The value of each drop target to have the source of displacement of the source (you must choose the sequence in the Type drop-down list)
  5. Create the slides that you want to display for each drop target
  6. Select one of the drop targets
  7. Go to the Format of the Panel Drag and Drop tab
  8. The Actions of the object... a button click
  9. In the action column, select go to slide, and then select the appropriate slide
  10. Repeat steps 6 through 9 for each target deposit
  11. Overview of the project

  I did a quick test and it seemed to work according to the settings you said earlier.

• Drag and drop - moved outside the target object

  Hello

  It's my first drag and drop object.  It went pretty well except for nitpicking a few things.  I'm hoping to get help on one of these.

  A sample of my screen is below.  The basic idea is that you drag one of the words in the dotted box, and I'll give you a sound feedback, whether good or bad.  I'm tiling the answers and this is my question.  Sometimes, if I already have one correct answer in the box and drag each other directly on the existing answer, he'll put it on the side and it seems that it is in the next box.  An example is below.  This happens very rarely, but I still want to go to the bottom of it.  I resized the boxes, made the smaller font and I reduce the size of the response when he goes inside the box.  But it still exists.  If they hang out below the existing response response then it works fine.  Does anyone know what is the answer?  I have the screen below, as well as the settings of the target in the example below that.  any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you!

  

  

  That's the problem with tiling. You can reduce the size of drop even more (90%), try one of the other options in the second row of tiles. Or choose absolute, which means that it has no real alignment, control, but text will stay where the user puts.

• Legend 1 success for multiple targets in a Drag and Drop Interaction

  I can't see how I can add legends of success to each target in an interaction drag-and - drop, but you can apply only 1 legend success multiple targets?

  1. The limits of smartshapes are overlapping with each other. For example, the smartshape on the 1st line was overlapped with the one on the 2nd line. For this reason, whenever you place the text of the 'Investment' legend on the smartshape on the 2nd line, it automatically moved to the smartshape on the 1st line. As a result, you could never get the right answer, and where you've ever seen the legend of success.

  Solution: Move the smartshapes another (or resize them) and make sure that there is no overlap.

  2, the number of attempts for this interaction has been on infinity. So, you have to play it until you get it right, but could not qualify because of the mention of the reasons above. That's why you have never seen the legend of failure.

  Solution: Disable the infinite in the accordion of Action and specify the required number of attempts. You will get the legend of failure if you don't get it right in these attempts.

  I just tested these solutions and it worked fine. Let me know if you still face problems.
