Registering CL as D&D target even if it's disabled

Black Dog · Post by *Black Dog » 2004-04-04, 16:22 UTC

[face=courier]I use Commander with disabled command line and though I can open it with KBD right/left arrows, I can't make drag&drop to it, 'cause it's not registered as a d&d target if it's disabled by default. Is it possible to fix it, Christian?[/face]

It never came to my mind to use TC this way. But as I tried it seems to me rather inconsistent that you can't drag & drop (or even insert) the content of the clipboard to the command line.

So I support this request.

What exactly - d&d objects to CL?

_________transmission_from_TOTALCMD.HLP___________

Drag & Drop

[^Y]
- Drag a file to the command line to add its short (DOS) name to it. To add the long name, press Ctrl+Enter instead. Holding down Shift adds the name with full path.

Nop. To use TC with hidden commandline and let it appear with left/right if needed.

I mean if commandline is not hidden (by option) you can drop/insert the clipboard to it, if you make it unhidden by left/right (while hidden by option) you can't. It's not consistent, is it?

"Drop/insert the clipboard to it"? Do you mean to insert the text contents of CB e.g. by ^V to CL? Because you can, actually.[/face]

Strange - when I tried it last time I couldn't. Now it works.

Well, it always did. The only lack of functionality with "hidden" CL is it is not registered as D&D target and this is what this thread is about.[/face]

I assure you, two hours ago it didn't.
