Drag images onto txb

by Zilla · in Torque X 2D · 07/28/2007 (2:22 pm) · 8 replies

I cannot drag images directly from the browser onto TXB.
I have to load them manually by "create new material".
I tried it with explorer and firefox and I have Vista installed.

It worked for me a few times in the beginning, and I have never been able to do it since. I don't know what has changed, but I just create new materials manually now.

I encountered the same effect. It worked when I was following the Microbes Tutorial, but never again since then.

We have seen some instances of this problem, but it's confusing to get a handle on. Does dragging from the browser to the desktop, and then from the desktop to TXB work? Internally, we had someone who wasn't able to drag from Firefox to TXB. Then he tried Internet Explorer and it worked. And then after it worked from IE, it also started working from Firefox.

I tried all of the above and none of it worked.

I also tested all these variations and none worked. I can live without this feature but it saved me a lot of time when it worked in the beginning.

Buona sera, Pesto

Since I downgraded from Vista to XP, I never had this problem again (among many others...).

Since this thread is well over a year old, I am guessing there is no fix lined up for this? I'm seeing this problem and it is very much a nuisance.
