More than 10 dragable objects with the Drag & Drop feature in SL2.

Nov 23, 2016

I'm wondering if it is possible to increase the amount of objects to be dragged in the Drag & Drop freeform slides.

Right now the limit seems to be 10.

I'm trying to create an interactive map where, ideally, I'd like to be able to have multiple (30+) objects to be placed on it.

If not, can this be a feature request?

So, I think I figured it out, sort of.  It seems strange that if I have 11 objects on the screen, only 10 objects appear to be able to be dragged.

I've upped the object count to 20 and only 19 objects are able to be dragged. However, if I were to delete the 'extra' object, the 19 remain.

(No drop locations were added.)

Hi Christine! So glad you were able to figure it out. If you have 20 objects on the slide, one of those objects has to be the drop target, so there will be only 19 spaces for drag items. However, if you're creating a slide that doesn't work like a traditional "drag and drop", meaning you want to drag to reveal information or something similar, you'll want to use the workaround you mentioned. So for your slide, you'll want to create an extra object on the slide (31 objects total). Good luck on this project, and please let me know if you need any further assistance!
