Mark, it should, but doesn't. I couldn't figure out how to get dnd with the
gedit widget to work properly (it would drop the value twice). What yo have
works with other widgets. However, it shouldn't be so hard. Below I show how to
do this through RGtk2, a fix I'll put on my todo list for the package:
library(gWidgets)
options(guiToolkit="RGtk2")
w <- gwindow()
g <- ggroup(cont=w)
lab = glabel("drag me",container=g)
ed = gedit("drop here",container = g)
adddropsource(lab)
## do this:
library(RGtk2)
gSignalConnect(getToolkitWidget(ed), "drag-data-received", f=function(w,...) {
print("arrived")
val <- w$getText()
svalue(ed) <- val
})
--John
