Help displaying dialog before drop.

[Chris R.]

I'm trying to display a dialog when a connection is being established by drag and drop.

I'm modifying the makeTarget call in the stateMachineDemo.js:

jsPlumb.makeTarget(jsPlumb.getSelector(".w"), {

dropOptions:{ hoverClass:"dragHover" },

anchor:"Continuous",

isTarget:true,

beforeDrop:function(params) { return confirm("Connect " + params.sourceId + " to " + params.targetId + "?"); }

});

But somehow this does not work. Any tips how I can modify this demo to get a dialog to come up before the connection is established?

Thanks in advance,

Chris R.

This looks like it should work; did you get that beforeDrop code from
the draggable connectors demo? The only difference between that one
and this is that here you're using makeTarget, so it makes me a bit
suspicious that there could be a bug here.

Do you think you could possibly put together a jsFiddle for this?
You can use this jsPlumb :

Hi Simon,

Here is the jsFiddle:

Yep, I took the beforeDrop line from the draggable connectors demo which uses it in the addEndpoint call.

But in my case I would like to use it with makeTarget since what I'm trying to do is very similar to the state machine demo.

Thanks for your help,

Chris R.

Thanks for that - I was just about write back and say that I checked
this and it's definitely a bug. Sorry to have made you put together
that fiddle.

I've fixed this in 1.3.7 now. I hope to release 1.3.7 fairly soon.

Thanks!

Is it possible to get a hold of your changes that fixes this before 1.3.7 is released?

BTW, thanks for this very useful library!

You can always build a copy from the source, if you have ant installed:

ant -Dversion=1.3.7-RC1

It ends up in build/1.3.7/js.
