Folks (those who may have an interest at least):

I just filed a bug: https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=22192

Does this ("Private" NOT Unicode aware) seem like a Feature or a Bug?

This is a documentation bug really - you can only store binary data in the
private key of the clipboard/dragboard (these things only store binary
data internally for all things).

So you need to textEncode/textDecode strings, and arrayEncode/Decode arrays
if you want to store either of those things there.

Warmest Regards,

Mark.


Thanks for the clarification Mark. I'm fine with treating it as binary and encoding/decoding my data as needed to keep it private and usable in our app. I would be nice to have that in the dragData dictionary entry whenever the docs can be updated.

I should learn how to contribute to updating documentation myself, but I have tried setting up GIT on Windows twice without success (obviously I am doing something basic wrong).
