Vista Drag and Drop
-
I’ve noticed in PA2007b5 when trying to drag and drop a file from the archive to the Windows desktop, it gives you the “not-allowed” cursor.
If you try a second time, it will work fine.
Also, may I recommend the DevExpress VCL components. Their new ribbon control looks perfect and gives glass and all that.
Thanks
-
just me?
-
try b6 and let us know… devex is for .Net, and their Delphi version isnt out yet and wont support glass on the ribbon…

we use old devexpress vcl stuff in our delphi applications
but i didn’t realize the haven’t updated ExpressBars vcl yet.When are you gonna redo PA in C# like every other delphi shop is doing?
hehehehe

hehehehe5 years after Borland closes shop?

technically they did
what’s their new name now for ide’s? codegear or something? my CTO wrote them a pretty nasty letter. heheanyhow, same problem exists in b6.
If you drag a file from the archive to the desktop i get the “No-no” cursor. When I let go of the mouse button it goes back to normal, then when i highlight over the PA window, it’s back to the “No-no” cursor. A second attempt at dragging to the desktop is successful.

same problem in beta 7
open an archive, select a file and start to drag it. instantly you get the denied cursor. try it again and it works fine.
-
hate to be a bastard but it’s not fixed in beta 8 either.
i do a lot of dragging and dropping from archives during the day. any chance of this one getting fixed?
-
same in b9…
is this on your radar to fix? can you reproduce it?
-
The issue I have is that when I drag and drop in Vista, it goes through the actions of extracting but nothing appears in the folder I’m dragging to. I’m using b9, and it is reproducible

i’ve seen that on XP, too.

i’ve seen that on XP, too.
well in XP it works fine in general, so please report specific situation (there are hundreds of them possible). It is hard to troubleshoot if it works fine on general document…
-
oh, this problem i haven’t seen on XP…
the problem where you will drag and drop a bunch of files to the desktop or an explorer window. it goes through the motions of extracting everything, but nothing shows up in the window you dragged it to, and seemigly it’s gone… almost like it never copies from a temp folder or something… i haven’t reproduced that one on Vista yet since I’m having the problem that this whole thread is about

we will be checking it out over the weekend and I will let you know how it goes…

does that mean it may have been fixed in 10, or post beta 10?
no change in b10
-
please check with RC1… thanks
-
no change unfortunatley.
edit: correction. slight change.
now, when dragging to the desktop you still get the ‘don’t allow’ cursor, but when you drop it, it kind of hangs on that cursor for a while, then it actually does extract it to the desktop.
better than previous builds, but still not quite right.
are you able to reproduce this on your vista copy?
-
anything i can supply you with to help get this resolved before the final?
-
actually, this does appear to be a vista issue, but something that can be fixed…

i think that will explain the issue pretty well. i might try and put together a test app tomorrow.

just wrote a quick test app in delphi 6 doing nothing special. works fine. must be something PA is doing.

we couldnt figure it out for the final, but we will check it again for 10.01… Sorry!
-
no worries. just don’t let it fall off the radar and i’m happy.
also, i’m a delphi developer (it’s my job) if you need any help with it at all.
