Drag and Drop on Folder Compare

[Michael Bulgrien]

I dragged a file from Windows Explorer and dropped it on one side of a folder compare. Instead of copying the file into that pane, Cirrus opened the file in a new file compare in a new tab. It would be nice to be able to drop files into a folder compare.

We have no immediate plans to support drag and drop for copying/moving files.

May I suggest, then, that when in a folder session BC3 suppresses the drop event rather than spawning a new file session.

[Tim]

We designed it this way so that the user can drag a pair of files onto any part of BC to compare them -- the program icon or an open window. BC2 works the same way.

Thanks for the explanation.
