MUI does seem to provide D&D between windows. At least I know that in YAM I can drag a mail from the Inbox list to the attachment tab of a write window in order to attach the mail. Cool, thanks Niels. I was looking at the MUI demos and poorly guessing from that. I imagine the drop zones are tig...

There are very few senders and they have to use WhichWorkbenchObject, so it isn't likely to be possible to update that function and even if it was, the impact would be low. I agree that you could only upgrade any legacy senders by recoding WhichWorkbenchObject(). It would need to be rewritten to pr...

Two identical posts. Woohoo! I think I'll delete this one.

Nor from app to Workbench! It only exists for Workbench to app communication, and only then for real files. Exactly, though WhichWorkbenchObject() is like the inverse but still app centric and again only provides a path to a drawer or file. Though I can understand why it is discouraged. It no doubt...

Anything that can be stored in a file! Audio, documents, archives, ISOs, etc. All things can be stored in a file of course though file formats become an issue. But certainly these are closely related to some of the things you may want to move around. The user should be able to drag these, not only ...

What might be quite interesting to me would be to discuss specific examples where these would be used. The reason being that examples then present solutions. So if you can add some examples that would be welcome. An extension to the current AppWindow/AppMessage interface so an application can send a...

Case of spot the difference I guess... Seems I do have to specify POINTERA_BitMap which I thought I could get by without doing so... All works fine now. I am curious why I would get the pointer imagery from OWB coming through? It wasn't just the text pointer but whatever pointer over change had occu...

I found some code at http://openamiga.org/?function=viewpage&pageid=23 . This helped me to write the code at the bottom. There seems to be something missing. I say that because when I use this I get a corrupt image. Now the funny thing is if I run OWB the corruption goes away. I can do this with...

I've been puzzling over my implementation. I couldn't understand why I was delaying the rendering. Now it starts to make sense to me again but I think I will implement it slightly differently. I might even add comments so I can recall what I was doing. Very sloppy programming! I think the intent was...

When I was looking through my old code I noticed there seemed to be a mismatch between a small library that I wrote and the source files I had written. It turned out the source files were older versions. I wanted to look at my - I think it is the one - hard drive I used back then to see if I could f...
