Hi
Please help me to resolve the Problem in drag drop . I am not able to drop the component from one panel to other if i use multiple panels. I want to drag the component to specified location in panel,after dropped that component able to drag within panel.But same function working fine in LabelDrag_Designer.java
(In this program using Border layout added north and center panel,calculating x y coordinates fine)
LabelDrag_Designer.java - sample program done for the drag and drop.

CardDesignerFrame1.java - Integrated code, problem for calculating x and coordinates.
While clicking “New” menu item, calling the menuItemClick(String munuItemClicked) method
and drag and drop functions handling in mak_list(JLabel jlabel) and new_lab(JLabel co, int x, int y) methods.

Thanks & Regards
Venkatram

You could start by formatting your code properly. But do not expect people to wade through all this in order to try and figure out what is happening or not happening. Please explain exactly where the problem lies and what it is doing wrong.

TorstenH. 9-Jan-13 7:51am

I can see some MouseAdapters in there, that's fine.
What result do you get? what is expected?
Do you have the correct reference for measurement of x and y values?

Shubhashish_Mandal 9-Jan-13 8:10am

To read the drag point(x,y) use MouseMotionListener. And set the value in some global variables(x,y) and then read the value when mouseReleased.

Solution 1

use mouse pressed and mouse released listeners and get the cordinates by using getX() nad getY() method in both the previously mentioned events
