No. The app be default should just dsplay it. if you want to add to the project, you 
do the current way of adding files.

I believe the problem is that IDEA is not a Java File Editor. It is a Java
Project Editor. Dragging and dropping a source file from the filesystem
would require more than just opening it in an editor window. It would
require the app to ask you: do you want to add this file to your project? do
you want to add its path to your project/source paths? do you just want to
temporarily look at this file without adding it to your project?  Obviously
Swing/Java can handle DnD from the filesystem and even more obvious ( to me
) is that the JetBrains team could add it in. The question really is how
does adding a random file to the project work? Rocket Science? No, but more
work than just enabling DnD.

Subject: WG: [Eap-features] Drag&Drop from file system to idea...


i tried different Drag&Drop stuff out with idea and i saw that idea
recognizes the dragged content -
one can see the logs in the console when you dragged the files over the
Project|Structure|Commander|Ant tabs ( only if they are closed <#614>),
output in the console window looks then like this : 
        dragOver
        java.awt.Point[x=13,y=39]
           before Structure
it seems like idea-guys want to add the functionality in the next builds
:)), but it would be great when it would work with the editor too ! ( there
is no console output now at dragging over the editor ).

Question to IntelliJ-developer : what exactly is planned to be implemented
in this context ?

3. I dont know if this is possible in Swing. Drag and drop a file from
Windows Explorer to IntelliJ - resulting in opening the file in the editor
window.

+1 :) yes, it's possible in Swing and i miss the option too !!!
