ALT-TAB and Drag and Drop

Post by *schrepfler »

I have noticed that it is possible to do D&D only doing the files-taskbar-application_tab-drop_on_application routine but not files-ALT-TAB-drop_on_application, as it's my favourite way to drop files can it be implemented :?:

This is my favorite too, and it is possible :D
If you have mouse selection mode set to windows standard, you can Alt+Tab D&D by using the right mouse instead of the left.
Of all the planets I've been to, this one is my favorite.

You can, but you need to move the mouse cursor out of the TC rectangle BEFORE using Alt+Tab, because otherwise TC will use only internal D&D, not external (OLE2) for speed reasons.
