I just upgraded to XXE Pro 6.1.0 after years of using a much earlier
version. But in this version, Alt-dragging doesn't work the way it used to.
I used to use split view and Alt-drag the (DITA) topic that was open in
one tab (after selecting the top-level element in the topic) onto an
xref in the other tab (or onto a topicref in a map). This would update
the href attribute of the xref/topicref to the topic I wanted.
But now, doing the same thing pops up a menu with Copy Before, Copy
Into, Copy After (all greyed out), and Cancel. Which means that all I
can do is cancel.
Is the old behavior still available?
Sorry but no.
Am I doing something wrong?
No, not at all.
Alt-Drag now drags the implicit or explicit *selection*, that is, text
or XML nodes. You want to drag the URL of a document in order to drop it
onto an xref or topicref.
The simplest way to do that is, after switching to source document A,
drag its file icon found in the node path bar and drop it onto target
document B (also visible because of the split view).
See attached screenshot.
