Drag/Drop Of A PictureBox, Keeping The Image Visible During Drag
Haya!

As the title says, I need to do what seems to me should be fairly simple. I have a number of pictureboxes each filled with a static image. I would like to add the ability for a user to drag the picturebox on to ANOTHER picturebox (this one holds a image currently selected by dropdown list). Upon drop, the box and associated dropdown box should be changed accordingly.

I only need a single integer to transfer with the drag/drop operation, as each image is keyed to a number.

Now, I am not all that familier with Drag Drop at all, much less with maintaining the image while being dragged... If anyone could point me to a good tutorial, I would be much appreciative.

Thanks!

OLE Drag && Drop (Drag From My App To Windows Explorer)
How can I set this up:
My app will display a listview in large- or small- icon format. These icons will represent files. I would like the user to be able to drag one or more of the icons from the listview and drop them into an Explorer folder (effectively, my app would be copying these files to the desired folder). I know it's probably not rocket science, but I haven't done this before. TIA for your help...

WebBrowser Drag && Drop (get Drop Filename)?
I have Form with 2 WebBrowser's ( WebBrowser1 & WebBrowser2 )

WebBrowser1 is displaying graphic images that can be dragged and dropped into WebBrowser2 but how do I find the name of the file I dragged and dropped?

I also have another related questions.

I can select multiple images in WebBrowser1 but I cannot drop them into WebBrowser2 (only one image at a time), what type of container should I use to drop multiple images into? I know it can be done because I can drag and drop the multiple images into FrontPage.

Your cryptic clues would be enormously helpful to me

No Drag Drop
This should be simple enough. Is there a way to disable the drag drop feature of a listview?

Some relevant settings are currently set to...
DragMode = vbManual
OLEDragMode = ccOLEDragManual
OLEDropMode = ccOLEDropManual
View = lvwIcon

I simply don't want the user dragging the images anywhere.

Edit: Nevermind, got it, sorry thanks.
OLEDragMode = ccOLEDragAutomatic
OLEDropMode = ccOLEDropNone

Drag And Drop...do I Use?
Ok I have set a command button to drag(automatic)
so i click on the button and i get an outline of the button
which means i am dragging it.

My problem is when i drop it, it disapears. I want to make it so i can drag my command button and then drop it on the form.
Can you give me a very straight forward example? thanx

Drag And Drop HELP
Hi guys,

I have been trying to get a drag and drop of 4 pictureboxes going for weeks now and without success. I have come across IcePlug tutorial about the subject which is excellent and thumbs up for these people. I have managed to modify it to get what I need. I am posting my code here.

What I need is a simple 2 pairs of picture to drag and drop. Then with a button control I check if the right pic is dropped on the right drop pic.

Yet with my lack of experience in vb.NET I cannot get it right.
Can someone please help me fix it. Thanks loads.

OLE Drag/drop
hi, could someone explain to me how the 'effect' thing works with OLE dragging and dropping. VB has 4 constants, move, copy, none and scroll. when i drag from another control the effect is set to 3 (im guessing this is move+copy) but if i drag from windows explorer i get 7. ive checked google but what i looked at only says theres the 4 options that VB gives me

Hi
I am writing a maths program supporting multiplication. The user can select tables from 1 to 10 and is then asked to fill in the numbers. I want to drag a number from a label. Is there any way other than to use almost 100 icons to cover all the tables? If the user drags 11 then I must have a 11.ico annd so on. Is ther a way around this.

Best wishes from Iceland

Drag, Drop
what exactly does Drag, Drop do?

Drag And Drop
I am creating a quiz for Chemistry.

I want to include an interactive atom. Where there will be a picture of an atom, 3 words at the side to represent the parts of the atom (protons, electrons, neutrons and nucleus) and spaces where the user can drag the word and put it into the space.

It should be that if the user drags and then drops the word into the correct area then ti stays there. If moved to the wring blank space then the word moves back to its original starting place.

I've been told that labels should be used for the words that have to be dragged? Adn PictureBoxes to drag the labels into?

Can anyone help? Source code would be great.

Drag And Drop Help
Hey

I'd like to know how to drag a label into a picturebox, and when it is dropped on top of the picturebox you can see the contents of the label in the picturebox. So far all i've managed to do is make the label able to be dragged only on to the picturebox, and when it is dropped on top of the picturebox, the label is made to go to the same position as the picturebox, but you can't see the label once it has been moved there.
The only code i have for the drag and drop so far is:

Private Sub Picture1_DragDrop(Source As Control, X As Single, Y As Single)
If Source = Label4 Then
Label4.Left = 600
Label4.Top = 2280
Else
End If
End Sub

Can anyone help or recommend another way to do this, perhaps not using a picturebox?

Thanks

How do I make it so I can take a picture and make it the background and then be able to have pictures on the side that I can drag over and move to the space I want for example have a Christmas tree as the background and then make ornaments as images able to drag and drop so they can decorate the tree themselves??

Drag Drop
Code:
Private Sub ListView1_OLEDragDrop(Data As MSComctlLib.DataObject, Effect As Long, Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, x As Single, y As Single)
If Data.GetFormat(vbCFFiles) Then
For i = 1 To Data.Files.Count
ListView1.ListItems.Add , , Data.Files(i), , 3
Next i
End If
End Sub
how can you tell if the user has dropped a file or a directory other than using scripting to see if the file exsists and if not then it's a directory (which is flawed anyhow)

If any of you are familier with Hip-hop Ejay, then you know that you are able to Drag and Drop sound files, which is really a picturebox, to the tracks you wish. I was wondering how to do this?

I am making something like it, and want to drag the sound file to the tracks to place them there, they also need to 'lock into place' and thoughts would be great, thanks.

Drag And Drop
Hi all, I've been having this slight problem with the drag and drop, now I wanna be able to move an object from one place of the screen to another and have it stay where I want it, I was able to do this with this coding>

Dim XX As Long, YY As Long

Private Sub Command1_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
XX = X
YY = Y
End Sub

Private Sub Command1_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
If Button = 1 Then
With Command1
.Move .Left - (XX - X), .Top - (YY - Y)
End With
End If
End Sub

----
but I have the inconvinience that it calls up the object every mousemove so when I click on it to move it, it leaves a trail or repetition of the object until I release it at which point it does stay where I want it to. I would like to know if there was a way which I could eliminate this trail or repetition........AND if it is possible to integrate such coding with the OLE drop mode, cause with my present coding the OLE drop mode wont work

Thanks in advance

Drag And Drop
Hi I was wondering if anyone may be able to help me, I am trying to carry out a drag and drop scenario of:

I have created a usercontrol that I would like to be able to drag around a form.

In the forms drag drop event I have the following code

Private Sub Form_DragDrop(Source As Control, X As Single, Y As Single)
Source.Move X - modvar.Xoffset, Y - modvar.Yoffset
End Sub

in the usercontrol I have the following code

Private Sub UserControl_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Modvar.Xoffset = X
Modvar.Yoffset = Y
End Sub

which provides the offsett for the from drag drop

As can be seen, the offset's are both stored and accessed from a global module modvar

The problem that I am having is that when the UserControl is on the form and moved, the Mousemove event is never being run.

What am i doing wrong
Thanks Phil

object B to section A or section B

thanks in advance.....

Drag And Drop
Been working on a drag and drop within my application and have found plenty of the examples explaining how to do this

i.e
Private Sub Command1_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
sngInnerX = X
sngInnerY = Y
End Sub

Private Sub Form_DragDrop(Source As Control, X As Single, Y As Single)
Source.Move X - sngInnerX, Y - sngInnerY
End Sub[p/re]

However my problem is is that the object that I wish to drag and drop is a usercontrol therefore it does not seem to have an mouseMove event ( i think). Is there a way of getting round this or am i just being stupid and missing the point.
Thanx P

I have a picture box where a picture will be loaded in runtime. Also in runtime I want the user to be able to click and drag a picture that is included in the form into the picture box on top of the picture loaded into the picture box. I know how to drag and drop, but it won't drap and drop into the picture box on runtime. If you have any code with comments it would help a lot.

I posted a topic like this before and got some replies but not enough to solve my problem.

First off I'll describe my form:
I have a large form with a picture box in the top half, and another in the bottom half that contains a few images.

What I'd like to do is "drag and drop" the images in the bottom picturebox into the top one during runtime.

I fiddled around with some of the image properties including DragMode and I got the image to "drag" but not "drop" where i wanted it to. It would always return to its original position.

My program is riding on the ability to do this and I'd like some assistance with it. Thanks.

VB 5.0

Hello,

I would like to have a simple way to drag text from a listbox to a textbox (or an another simple trick). With the deletion of the text of the listbox after dropping it in the right textbox.
First, I use:
Private Sub List3_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
If List3.ListCount > 0 And Button = 1 Then
List3.Drag
End If
End Sub
It is O.K.
The problems begin after with:
Private Sub Text2_DragDrop(Source As Control, X As Single, Y As Single)
If Source Is List2 Then Text2.Text = List2.Text
Else
: MsgBox "erreur", vbOKCancel, "Erreur"
End If
End Sub
Error with block IF
My another way is not better:
Private Sub list6_DragDrop(Source As Control, X As Single, Y As Single)
If Source Is List3 Then
List6.AddItem List3.Text
List3.RemoveItem (0)
Else
MsgBox "Erreur, essayez encore", vbOKOnly, "Séquence incorrecte"
End If
End Sub

Thanks for help
