It's not obvious that it editable. Being able to add your own custom properties can be very useful if you're doing more advanced stuff.

Type 'visuals' into the drop down list, and press 'add'.

Last Question (potentially :)). If I got a bit click happy and deleted the Visuals variable from my interface; how would I get it back? It isn't available in the drop down list.

The last parameter is end drag or not: so if you want the item to still be draggable set it to 0, otherwise 1 will kill it's draggability, and the user won't be able to move it anymore,

icon~action~endDrag - you've put '1' in the endDrag spot. There's no explanation of that in the dragItems help file, but I did see that in the Getting Strated -> Target Areas section of help, the endDrag there is also replaced with 1. Can you tell me what that is?

Currently it's doing roughly what I want it to :) Thanks for your help

It's more powerful : you can do whatever you want with it. In toolkits there isn't currently a draggable image interaction.

Yes you can: make a simple example and work up to what you need.

Set up this structure

GRAPHIC
INTERACTION
                TARGET AREA
                                SCRIPT

Load your draggable graphic into the graphic icon, give it an id 'myDragItem'
Set the properties for the target are'as position and dimensions (select the icon, press SHIFT-F5, place it where you want it)

Set the dragItesm property of the target area to

myDragItem~snap~1

Thenread the help for an explanation fo the options in the dragItems property.

Then you can add further items to the dragItems, separating them with commas,

I'm currently using Xerte, version 2.11 if that makes any difference.

Is this using Xerte Online Toolkits, or Xerte itself?

Hi,

I'm brand new to Xerte, so this could be a very stupid question. :)

I want to make an interaction which involves dragging and dropping images into a target area.

Is that possible?
