It would be helpful if you could choose a color for the drop zones in drag and drop. Sometimes the gray is too close to the background color and they don't stand out enough.

Hi sdspasova,

Thanks a lot for contributing your ideas on how to make H5P better! We’re now working on something called the H5P supporter program allowing the H5P community to vote for and fund the top voted H5P features. Also there are developers in the community who every now and then works on a feature they find interesting or useful.

Your requested feature is part of the many new experimental features I have developed for the drag & drop activity in H5P.

See http://www.rezeau.org/drupal/node/24 (point 2.9.- Drop Zones Background color).

You might try the Plant families activity where the drop zones background is set to medium green

Unfortunately. my proposed experimental features have not yet made their way to the official distribution of H5P, and it seems that very few H5P users are interested at all in my work.

Dear papi Jo

Please don't confuse the lack of response or feedback with interest in your work. Many users will be very grateful about what you do and they will certainly enjoy how you improve existing H5P activities. Unfortunatelly, many of them will not consider it a priority to write back to you or they simply miss the skills to do so. 

Just yesterday, I had a conversation with several developers of software and writers of material. All of them have the same story to tell. Hardly ever get they helpful or encouraging feedback. And I agree, when you put so much work into something you hold dear, that can be very frustrating. But when you talk to users, they will often tell you how much they just like that little feature somebody implemented out of his or her own need.

So allow me to give a big THANK YOU to you in the name of all the silent users who enjoy your work and profit from your engagement. Your work makes our life easier and H5P much user friendly.

I totally agree with mattgig. I'm sure the community is very appreciative of the work that you are doing. The core team feels the same way and would as much as they would like to review the changes they are currently stumped with working on releasing the new contents.
