Re: drag and drop word to match image
guess u cant help then, thanks anyways
Re: drag and drop word to match image
Try using the javac compiler to get some good error messages that you can copy and paste here. Your IDE does not give good compiler error messages.

Re: drag and drop word to match image
if i was to leave the drop point as a textarea can i still do the logic bit???
Re: drag and drop word to match image
You need to find and fix the error. You should not ignore it.

Re: drag and drop word to match image
the error is only there if cus im trying to change the drop textarea to a drop label..
if i leave it as textarea i can move forward with the logic cus time is not on my side. will i be able to do the logic with the drop being textarea?

You should be able to fix a compiler error.

Re: drag and drop word to match image
is it even possible to have a drop point as a label???
Re: drag and drop word to match image
Yes, I think any component can be a drop point (with the proper coding)

Re: drag and drop word to match image
It appears that you didn't have this drag and drop thing as wired as you originally thought, and I can't see that you've made any progress in this thread. To move forward, I suggest you post some code, describe the problems you're having with errors or descriptions of what is not working well, etc. Short study programs that take small steps from which to learn are more useful for discovery, practice, and sharing of new skills with others than a large project that has lots of moving parts, all of which may be in various stages of maturity.
As always, keep coding and good luck!
Re: drag and drop word to match image
i learnt drag and drop with textfield, not label to label so that is why i thought i just needed to change the code around but its not as easy as i thought. doing some research so when i'm done i will post somthing, but it seems to me as though you cannot do a label to label
Re: drag and drop word to match image
Try changing the code in post#11 by replacing the text field with a label.

Re: drag and drop word to match image
i have done it doesnt work.. thats what i thought i could do originally but obviously not.
Re: drag and drop word to match image
It doesn't work because it has syntax errors and will not compile. You need to find and fix the errors in the program so that it compiles without errors.it doesnt work
You can not test code that does not compile.

Re: drag and drop word to match image
Try making a few, simple changes to the code in post#11. There isn't any code like what you posted in #40 from post#11.

Re: drag and drop word to match image
there is i hve tried to change this but i cannot
--- Update ---
[/COLOR]i have done a whole days of worth of research and i don't think that a label can be a drop target... if anyones any different please can you help me
--- Update ---
I don't really have to add a JLabel it can be a textfield too but the thing is i dont know how make it so it the Textfield only accepts the jlabel if it matches the image.

Re: drag and drop word to match image
Did you try making the one change to post#11: change the class that extends TextArea to extend Label?

Re: drag and drop word to match image
okay yea i have that working now. So now how do i get it to accept the drop if it matches the image?
Re: drag and drop word to match image
The drop target component needs a String that can be compared to the dragged String.
For testing change the simple program you have working to have a String associated with the drop target so that it can accept one of the Strings from the drag source labels and reject the other.

Re: drag and drop word to match image
do i need to make a key for images or somthing ?
do u have an example which may help me do the string bit?
Re: drag and drop word to match image
Sorry, I don't know what you mean by "key".
What is the "string bit"? I assume that you know how to define a constructor for a class that takes a String as argument and that you know how to call that constructor and pass it a String.
What does that mean? How will the code determine if there is a match?how do i get it to accept the drop if it matches the image?

Re: drag and drop word to match image
Start by making a small change to the code from post#11. Change it so that the drop target only accepts a drop from one of the two drag sources and rejects a drag from the other source.
