Drag and Drop Upload Control

Hi JK,

I am getting below error when I drag and drop control to view.

Could not find the HTML definition for the control

Could you please help?

Hi All,

Realised that there is an issue with the control's "FullName", which should be "DragAndDropControl.DragAndDropFile.Control, DragAndDropControl" in "DragAndDropFile_Definition.xml". I've updated the package, but will need to wait for Lance to come back from leave to upload it here. Meanwhile, you can follow these steps to get things working:

1. If you have not added the control into any Views, you should remove the control from the system using the following command:

  "C:Program Files (x86)K2 blackpearlBincontrolutil.exe" deregister -control:DragAndDropFile

  The console app should reply that the control has been successfully removed. If you encounter errors specifying that the control is in use, look at point 2.

  After removing the control, update the source package's XML file (as stated above) and re-compile it and deploy.

2. If the control is already in use, start you SQL management studio, go to "K2" database > "Form.ControlTypeImplementation". Look for the DragAndDropControl record under the "FullName" column. Update it to ""DragAndDropControl.DragAndDropFile.Control, DragAndDropControl"

For both methods above, you will need to run IISReset to kick in the changes.

The current version of the control has been tested in 4.6.9 and 4.6.10.

Thank you.

Hello,

thank you very much for this custom control, it works fine and is also functional and usable in list views! However I would like to ask you for a small tuning if possible:)

1. Small red cross (inteded to clear the control of data) is visible only just after you dragged new file to this control. Would it be possible to have the small cross visible all the time the control is active and not in read-only or disabled state?

2. Would it be possible to add possibility to use d&d for attachements from Outlook?

Thank you in advance for your feedback and best regards!

I changed the SourceCode.Forms DLL in the project solution with the one from my K2 bin folder

I was able to compile and register the control but it works only in Designer/Runtime not in Runtime/Runtime

any ideas please ?

I was able to figure out the issue. To make this control work with 4.7, you simply need to change the line:

data: data to data: file

in the snippet below from DragAndDropFile_Script.js 

$.ajax(
        {
            context: this,
            type: 'POST',
            url: '/Runtime/Utilities/FileHandler.ashx?fn=' + this._fileName + '&' + (new Date()).getTime(),
            cache: false,
            data: file,
            contentType: false,
            processData: false,
            async: true
        })

Register the control using controlutil.exe and restart IIS

@simonatbnp -  you have to add for loop in the uploadfile: function(datatransfer) method

uploadFile: function (dataTransfer)

var filecollection = dataTransfer.files;
var file;
for(i = 0; i < filecollection.length; i++)

file = filecollection;
