[LucaMs]

The B4XPages-B4J version project attached does not work. The same but B4J, does.

I can drag/drop a jpg file onto the target from file manager and it get's displayed.

I think you haven't tried the project I have attached. The DragDetected event does not fire (and consequently neither do the others, of course).

I have the exact same project but B4J, not B4XPages, and it works.

Yes, I downloaded your project, and it displays a jpg file dropped on the target.

Evidently I am unpleasant to my PC (too)

I can't do the video, but:

The file you are using has a jpg extension, and not a jpeg or something else?

Just saw your second video, now that's strange. I don't know what to suggest.

I just ran your project and it works as expected. Try the obvious first. Restart the PC.

You suggested something very "tiring" to me; restarting my PC takes at least... 20 minutes ☹

Anyway I try; maybe in the meantime... I'll have lunch! (6:47 PM, here)

Keep in mind that I'm a novice at this environment but I don't see why the DragDetected event would fire. It is linked to the 'ivSource' imageview which has nothing in it to be dragged. I tried giving it an image in the Designer and then trying to drag that image around. When I did, the image dragged and the event fired as expected.

As for dragging an image file from the desktop to the ivTarget imageview, it worked fine for me.

Tried: same result

Ehm... forget it. I just downloaded... my own project from first post and... now it works!

Please, do not ask me why (the only possible thing I think may be that the project I ran was not the one attached. I will try to check it).

I DON'T KNOW! Now they both work! Without changes; and you can see the animated gif...!

I FOUND THE INCREDIBLE PROBLEM !!!

It WORKS when I open the project by double-clicking on the main project file.
It DOES NOT WORK if I start B4J with administration rights, open the project by menu and run it!

Note that on my PC a single user exists: mine - administrator (Windows 7).

Hmmm, now that requires Erel's brain I think.

Maybe my PC requires Erel's brain, instead of its CPU

Drag and Drop File into Application under run as administrator

Whenever I have an application running (Visual Studio 2008, Notepad, etc.) under "Run as Administrator", I cannot drag and drop files from Windows Explorer into the application. I've tried running
