I really appreciate this tutorial but having been thrown into creating online classes ....all of this this is a bit much....I wish Microsoft teams just integrated this into create Assignments options with a few templates and upload choices for your own pictures .....anyways I will give this a try
Hi Malik! Very good video! Just a question please. I have gone back to the video several times to make sure I follow it step-by-step but the issue I have is it doesn't seem to even allow me to 'Drag' the Image (when in Presentation F5 mode) I added the DragandDrop macro to, or any object I tried for this matter. I am obviously doing something wrong but can you help me identify the source?
I went through part 2 as well, it works somewhat. I want to know why is the timer necessary? Can this be made by just drag and drop to target and if doesn't hit goes back? The timer and position seems unnecessary but I'm not a coder just curious.
Hi! One question: In your code you are referring to a shape called "sqrBlack", but you named the black square "square_end", so where Powerpoint is looking for that name?
While dragging the shape moves (jumps!) extremely slowly (PowerPoint 2021 on Win10 Pro, powerful i7 laptop...) I have tested it on several laptops And if DropInSeconds = 0 the shape only jumps once at a click Why?
hello. First I want to thank you for your immense help. I'm from Brazil, and maybe that's why I didn't understand something. I would like to know if I can keep user32, which you use. because the entire second paragraph, in which you use it, is in red. where did you get this user32 from...
Hello, I am your new subscriber. Been reading and watching tutorial videos about VBA in PPT. I am so grateful that i found a tutorial video for Drag and Drop function. Thank You so much. Hope to see more videos from you. I have one question....what will i do if i only want the drag and drop function and not using the timer? What should i do?
Do you know how to control a video in a slide with buttons? I inserted some bookmarks on the video, and I want the buttons to start playing the video at bookmarks times. For example, button 3 starts bookmark 3, button 4 starts bookmark 4, etc. I couldn't find out a way to do that using normal Powerpoint actions. Maybe with VBA it is possible. What do you think?
Hi, you are the only one doing drug and drop exercise. Well done. Can you tell me how to have a correspondence between a text and an image instead of A and a. Thank you
So many people have been asking about this. I will do a video explaining the process. Thank you for watching. It is just a matter of connecting the text and image to the same variable.
These tips are amazing! Thank you. I am working on both a PC and a Mac for the same interactive powerpoint. If I do the commands on a PC (as per your examples) will they automatically do the same on my Mac?
Yes, it should work. However, any active-x controls you use in a project will not work. There has been an update to the VBA editor recently so I would suggest testing it before presenting it.
Hmmm... right at 16:20 your screen changes and the position and position_end text is appearing. Mine isn't. I've followed every step precisely. Any idea what might be going wrong? Thank you for this video. I really want to figure this out.
Yes, that was a glitch, however, there are no missing steps. Make sure you select the shape first, then go to insert, action... If you are getting an error it means you misspelled some code or if it just is not working, it could mean that you may not have added or changed the code. Remember VBA is case sensitive.
Thank you for replying. Could I maybe email you the file and see if you can find what I did or didn't change right? I don't have experience yet with VBA, but I regularly use other coding languages. To make sure I wasn't missing anything, I used copy/paste. I included quotes. I'm using my own images, of course, but I kept the names the same as yours (until I learn VBA myself). So, I have a ball and a box, but they are named "square" and "square_end".
What I can do is give you this link to the finished code. You can compare it to your own or just paste it into your project after deleting your code:docs.google.com/document/d/1sNqpYhLDd1971ZJXtnoA-b96BDkBG4NwjxMnolSzJ2k/edit?usp=sharing
You also asked about your version, it is possible because Office 2013 and Office 2016 includes VBA 7.1 while Office 2010 includes VBA 7.0. The code I am using, however, should work on both versions. Whenever I am doing these videos, I am doing them in one shot to make sure whatever I am doing it will work for you as it does for me.
In the provided code there is a line that says " 'Comment out the next line if you do NOT want to show the countdown text within the shape". This is exactly what you've been looking for.
Hi Malik, just did all the steps and run macro/drop and drag is selected in the actions box but can't move shapes or see countdown - is there something I am supposed to do to finish with the module box, once all the changes have been made to the code, to save the changes perhaps?
GREETINGS! I WANT TO DO 'FILL IN THE GAPS ACTIVITY' THROUGH DRAG AND DROP MACROS. AS YOU KNOW THERE IS ONE FILL AND OPTIONS ARE MORE . SO I NEED TO KNOW HOW TO APPLY DRAP AND DROP IN THIS CASE. THANKYOU
thanks a lot for this. Just wondering , if I change the square shape to arrow shape, do I need to change certain area in the codes? for example sqrBlack to something else? really cool if you can answer this since I have no background in programming language.
Hello, I was able to enable the drag and drop function However. I have issue with the timer. Why is that the selected shape that i am dragging has a timer as well? How to remove it? Hoping to have an answer from you :(.

nvm.. i found out why it didnt move.. it because i dragged immediately where i need to click first then drag. However the window "Great Job!" didnt open up everytime i put the shapes on top of the black square
Thank you for the vid! I've followed the instruction to the T however, in VBA the text between "#Else Public .... etc #End" If is red. Does that mean it won't work? How can I fix this, Thank you for your time!
Says the following "Compile error: The code in this project must be updated for use on 64-bit systems. Please review and update Declare statements and then mark them with the PtrSafe attribute."
Yes, you have to use PtrSafe to tell VBA that the code is safe for 64bit. PtrSafe. The PtrSafe keyword asserts that a Declare statement is safe to run in 64-bit versions of Office. docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office/vba/language/concepts/getting-started/64-bit-visual-basic-for-applications-overview
To simply make it draggable regardless; you would remove the if statement "If Timer > StartTime + DragInSeconds" However, you will need to replace it with a click event to stop the dragging. That is of course if you want it to stop dragging. If you do not need it to stop dragging, then only replace the drageMode variable to true in the if statement and it will drag as long as the application is running.
Does this codes valid for images? Not shape . I’ve try using the codes to create mix and match pictures but it’s seems not working . Please reply back.🙏🏼
Are there any particular settings a Mac user would need in order to run a presentation with macros? Iv created a drag and drop activity using ur tutorial and other snippets of code (to add sound and reset my slides). I use a windows laptop but I want to make sure it will also work on a Mac.
Good day.. good thing I have seen this video and thanks for this. I just want to ask something. I have unlicensed PowerPoint installed in my laptop, could it be possible to save this enabled macro ppt presentation? How? Thanks for any feedback.
Normally, if you cannot get it to work, it is due to errors with capitals that should be lower case and vice versa. In some cases you can also check for naming inconsistencies.
Hi. Nice video and explanation, but I have a problem. I cannot move my colored figures. So when I switch on the presentation by pressing f5 I cannot actually drag any colored figure, as you do in the video. Do you have any ideas or probably recommendations? I will be really grateful!
Keep in mind that PowerPoint recognizes fills, shapes, and lines separately. It could be that another shape has an invisible width and height that is covering up what you want to select.
You would simply change the code to add a limit to the last selection. So instead of second selection being checked, it would be the 5th in VBA. This actually sounds like an interesting thing to try. I will make a video in the future of this if you like.
Can you help me? I tried to follow everything you mentioned in the video but as I reach the last part, wherein I need to click the "Run_macro" in Action button, it's not enabled. The thing enabled only are the "None", "Hyperlink to" and "Run program", "Run macro" is disabled. I cannot apply the action drag and drop. Can you help me solve this?
hello could you help me i did it alot of times but when i click with mouse on the shape it is not moving i donot why or where the mistake macro option works with me but when i try to move the shape it is not moving
There is not much I can do. The video is complete and the code works. I would suggest checking for misspellings or extra spaces. VBA is very particular and the smallest mistake will prevent the entire application from working.
Hi, I was just wondering, if I could use the drag and drop on multiple slides in one presentation. If so how do I change the VBA to make that work, please.
All the code we write in VBA exist in a file. The file is seen as a class in VBA. You would have to create a new class aside from the original one we made and place your code there.
@@Awayzo I managed to get it to work, thanks. However I do have a question. I'm creating an online course and I'm trying to create a drag and drop quiz. Is there a simple way I can lock correct answers in PowerPoint? or is there somewhere I can find a template?
@@Awayzo no, lock is maybe the wrong word. I want, for example, to have drag and drop where only the correct answer can be dropped into the destination, (like in your example the red box into the black box) and no other, or that it would state if it is correct or wrong. What part of your given code is needed? What should I change? or do I need a completely different code? :-)
@@alexneves7809 What I would do to adjust what we currently have to fit your specifications, is to make all the other "answers" into images with not code attached and only attach the code to the active image. When the correct one is dragged and dropped, I would then advance the user to another slide that looks the same but with another object as teh answer and no other options. You would be using multiple slides, but this would be the easiest way.
An intro to ClassPoint for Drag and Drop instructions stated NO VBMs ("drag and drop objects in PowerPoint without Macros, VBA coding, or animations!") but your tutorial is all about VBMs. I'm not a coder and following your instructions was not easy (pace was fast) and those codes (ugg). 😵💫
@@orangepants5358 What I can tell you from helping many people one of two issues could be the problem... 1. Misspellings or missing quotes/parentheses in the code. This is hard to find because VBA doesn't really give you an error message for all errors. You would have to rake over the code and make sure. 2) Naming the shapes one way and trying to access the shapes in code another way. You also asked about your version, it is possible because Office 2013 and Office 2016 includes VBA 7.1 while Office 2010 includes VBA 7.0. So your version could be an issue. The code I am using, however, should work on both versions. Whenever I am doing these videos, I am doing them in one shot to make sure whatever I am doing it will work for you as it does for me.

@@Awayzo already done that
@@orangepants5358 What I can tell you from helping many people one of two issues could be the problem... 1. Misspellings or missing quotes/parentheses in the code. This is hard to find because VBA doesn't really give you an error message for all errors. You would have to rake over the code and make sure. 2) Naming the shapes one way and trying to access the shapes in code another way. You also asked about your version, it is possible because Office 2013 and Office 2016 includes VBA 7.1 while Office 2010 includes VBA 7.0. So your version could be an issue. The code I am using, however, should work on both versions. Whenever I am doing these videos, I am doing them in one shot to make sure whatever I am doing it will work for you as it does for me.
thank you this did helped me and i saw a little dot that while writing wasnt in my vision and now its working properly , and my school project is ready.thank u again
@@orangepants5358 No problem. Thanks for the update.

ruclips.net/video/-7gnmRxnteA/видео.html
what if i want to add more shapes?
Make sure you name the shape then create another ActivePresentation.Slide(1).Shapes (Shape name here) declaration
@@Awayzo thx
I followed the steps properly but the message box isn't working. Thanks
It means you missed something...probably misspelled or an extra space somewhere
Hi, I’m trying to use this to create a test for my pupils. When I got to Insert>Action> Run Macro is not enabled. I tried to enable using the Trust Centre and enabling all macros but it’s still not enabled and faded out. Thanks
Is your screen enlarged? If the screen is minimized it might not show the 'action' option. The shape also needs to be selected.
Still the same I tried a lot of times also.
Did you already find a solution to enable macro? @claire douglas?
Is the countdown mandatory?
No
