Hello,
I am interested in your script, but how can you drag multiple folders simultaneously.
If you could help me, thank you in advance

Subject: Dragging folder to a field under linux adds "file://" before thefolder


Hi,

i want to drag a folder into a field to get the path displayed. I am using the following code in the field script:

ON dragEnter
       IF there is a folder the dragdata["files"]
   THEN
       set the dragaction to copy
   END IF
END dragEnter

ON dragDrop
      set the text of me to the dragdata["files"]
END dragDrop


This works fine under Win and Mac OS x. The path is displayed correctly. Under Linux there is "file://" added before the path.

For example the path /home/matthias/desktop becomes file:///home/matthias/desktop

If i do not use any script in the field, the path is displayed correctly without the leading "file://". But I need to use a field script, because my original script is doing some adjustments to the path (replace backslash with slash under windows). Is this Linux specific? Or am i doing something wrong? I know i can solve this with "replace "file://" with "" in field ...." , but i would like to know and understand why "file://" is added to the path.

Regards,

Matthias
