FluentTerminal Can't drag and drop files to insert a path

Can't drag and drop files to insert a path

Open hanskokx opened this issue 6 years ago • 7 comments

I was trying to run a program, using a filename as an argument. I tried to drag/drop the file into the window to insert the path+filename. This didn't do anything.

I looked at this a while ago. Problem is that the UWP WebView is not acting like a real control for drop events, and when handling it in JavaScript I only received the filename, but not a complete path. Maybe adding the broadFileSystemAccess capability changes this, but I haven't tried it.

It would also have to understand whether or not you're using WSL or some windows command line to insert the proper path.

@felixse I have an idea, adding a transparent control above WebView to receive drop events and changing its Visibility according to Window.Current.Activated.
