That's not something that Player 8.5 is going to support I think. There might be other tricks but the Player itself won't understand the drag and drop.

I'm wondering if a Flex 2.0 application (and the new Flash player) has the ability to enable a user to drag a file or folder *from the file system* onto a Flex app and have the app perform an action (such as reading meta data on the files, uploading them, etc.). Does anybody have any insight about this? thanks, David -- David Katz [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Yahoo!
