Drag and drop copy/move from outside FC

#1 Post by pthubbard » 22.02.2009, 12:58

Just d/l 2009.2 donor install and portable. It won't drag and drop from o/s of fc. Example from desktop to fc. You can see the options window quickly flicker when you try to release the file into fc but then nothing happens.

I just tried re-installing and it does the same thing. Note that it will drag o/s of FC i.e. FC to Desktop but not the other way around. Weird, eh?

Is the option "Show popup menu for left button drop" active? Turn off the option and try again.

Interesting... never saw that option before. With it unchecked, I can left-click and drop to FC but of course w/o the menu which I would prefer and the right-click still won't drop to FC with or without menu. When I re-check the option it goes back to not working.

No, I'm using XP sp3 with all the latest updates. Both the install and zip versions do the same thing. When I re-install beta 396, it works fine.

Yes, that fixed the Drag & Drop problem... yeah! Now, there's just the toolbar problem to correct.

Could you send me a screenshot with the toolbar problem and your freecommander.ini.

Sorry... I don't know which email address to send it to. I believe you know mine, so if you send me one, I'll reply to it and attach the .ini file. Thanks, Peter

You can find the email address in the "About" dialog of the program, in the profile, or here:
