Drag&Drop[V 3.1.3] - Drag and drop functionallity in Rainmeter, now with even more fancyness!

[FxbyV]

Code: Select all

[DragNDrop]
......
OnDropAction=[!HideMeter MeterText][!UpdateMeter Image][!Redraw][!Log $File$]

And the file path you get is only loged once, doesn't it? It surely cannot be saved. If you want to save it, use "!WriteKeyValue" instead.

Can you please write a little example? I found a doc section about that (https://docs.rainmeter.net/manual/bangs/) but I havent seen anything about how to do that with a picture

Thanks:)

[DragNDrop]
......
OnDropAction=[!HideMeter MeterText][!UpdateMeter Image][!Redraw][!Log $File$]

So I didn't found any meter named "MeterText", as well as named "Image". And the file path you get is only loged once, doesn't it? It surely cannot be saved. If you want to save it, use "!WriteKeyValue" instead.

So I worked on it a little bit: The drag and drop funktion now works but the saving still doesnt.

So I worked on it a little bit: The drag and drop funktion now works but the saving still doesnt.

Code: Select all

Codes skip.

You should re-organize the whole OnDropAction instruction, rather than only replace some single key words.

Drop Test.rar

By the way, for an image, opening a system dialog and choosing it may be a better way to link the image onto the skin. The drop link method is more suitable for linking a program. I don't know what kind of skin you are working on, but if a launcher skin,

Thank you for your help I got it working now

Commented on this plugin almost 5 years ago, and I finally implemented Drag & Drop into my suite today. Thank you theAzack9.

Greetings!

I don't know if i will have help on this issue here, i hope this plugin is still governed by dev.

I just tried out recently this dll, and works pretty nicely, tho the shortcut seems not working since it creates from exe another exe file, which is not a shortcut file. (windows says)
Sadly the substitution section was removed, so now i cannot replace the .exe to .lnk if it would work that way...

Is there a way to create .lnk shortcut file from every types?

Thank you for the help in advance!

Error in About Rainmeter Could not create directory: \\HITX\E\


I simple used the filepath without any quotes "", might help? Otherwise this dll seems to be very sensitive on paths and permissions.
I couldn't get path information on an .exe file from my Program Files folder since i messed up a bit of the folder permissions, so now rainmeter logs an error "!Log: Invalid type".

So probably there will be some addressing/permission issue for you.

[tass_co]

As you said, the problem is permission related.
Thank you

Thank you

I am glad if i could help!
Did you solved it? Or the problem still exists just at least found the cause of the issue?
