Will someone please confirm that dropping a picture using AcceptPictureDrop creates a memory leak. It will only take you 30 seconds to either confirm or deny, so please let me know what you find. BTW, I'm on a Mac running the latest Snow Leopard, RB 2009 R3 Studio (enterprise). 1) Create new project 2) Add a canvas 3) In the canvas open event, add: me.acceptpicturedrop 4) In the canvas DropObject event, add the following lines: if obj.pictureavailable then me.backdrop = obj.picture end if Now, open up your Activity Monitor and watch your program's memory footprint climb as your drag pictures into the canvas. For me, each time I drag a picture object into the canvas, my app's memory footprint jumps 100% or more. I can't seem to find a way to free up the used memory either. Perhaps I just don't know how to use AcceptPictureDrop, but this is pretty irritating for me. Thanks. Last edited by ChickenScratch on Wed Feb 10, 2010 10:35 pm, edited 1 time in total.

To accept files from Finder, you will probably have to use AcceptFileDrop.
