Hello everyone, this is my first post.
I've just started using TortoiseSVN and I don't get the Right Drag Menu when I right-drag a versioned file within TC. It works properly in Explorer. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Some additional information: The Right-Click menu works fine, as do the icon overlays. The Right Drag Menu is described in the TortoiseSVN help file in section 5.1.2 Drag and Drop which says, "Other commands are available as drag handlers, when you right drag files or folders to a new location inside working copies or when you right drag a non-versioned file or folder into a directory which is under version control."
In Explorer, the right drag menu has these entries:
-----------------------------------------
SVN Move versioned files here
SVN Copy versioned files here
SVN Copy and Rename versioned files here
SVN Add files to theis WC
SVN Export to here
SVN Export all to here
-----------------------------------------
Copy Here
Create Shortcuts Here
-----------------------------------------
Cancel
-----------------------------------------
In TC, the right drag menu has these entries:
-----------------------------------------
Copy...
Move...
Create Shortcut
-----------------------------------------
Cancel
-----------------------------------------
I searched this forum and found a related thread:
http://www.ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?t=7388
But it doesn't address the Right Drag Menus. I found another thread:
http://www.ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?t=7101
But it's in German and I can't quite make it out.
Can anyone help? (with the the right-drag problem, not my German)
Thanks,
-Rob

The right drag extensions dont work within TC, sorry.
The author said, he could not find a way to call the requied functions from within TC.

Can't you use the right click menu to checkout files?

As Lefteous said, the Right-Drag menu is different than the Right-Click menu.
The Right-Click menu works perfectly and I can checkout working copies, commit, import, etc.
The Right-Drag menu lets you move and copy "versioned" files and directories to different locations within a working copy in a way that SVN can keep track of. You can also use the Right-Drag menu to add files from outside your working copy to make them part of your versioned project.
The ability to move files and directories within a working copy is one of the strengths of SVN over CVS and that's why I wish I could do this within TC.
