Title: Drag and Drop?
Post by: oofoe on August 25, 2008, 08:28:15 AM
Hi,



Is there an easy way to do simple inter-process drag and drop with the newLisp GUIserver on Windows? I would like to be able to drag and drop text snippets from other applications (like Outlook or Wordpad) onto a newLisp application, then have it process the text.



As a bonus, it would also be good to have it going in the other direction -- dragging and dropping from the newLisp program.



It does seem that drag and drop work on text fields, but I would like to extend it in a more general direction -- using an image as the drop pocket, for example.



Thanks!

OK, I'm thinking I've asked the unanswerable... Guess it's time to crack open the guiserver source again...



Thanks for reading!
