Yata Posted June 7, 2007 Author Share Posted June 7, 2007 I doubt this is PDN related, but none the less I feel it's worth posting. Sometimes I feel inclined to just drag a picture from the internet to PDN, this dose not work if I drag it to the PDN icon though. Which if I do, results in a "File cannot be found." window. However, if I drag it to the PDN interface while PDN has already been started, then it loads the image just like any other picture. Again, I have my doubts this is PDN related. Thank you.

Myrddin Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 ...this dose not work if I drag it to the PDN icon though... You mean like a desktop icon or Start menu icon? If so, then it won't as it's like dragging something into the .exe and not the program. Not sure whether that's the right terminology.

Yata Posted June 7, 2007 Author Share Posted June 7, 2007 Such as the icons you double click to start PDN, yes. I personally drag it to the QuickStart button.

Myrddin Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Ah, all mine are in the Start menu as small icons to fit them all on. And it's something you can't do with Windows nothing to do with PDN. I tried dragging once and accidently dropped it onto the taskbar and it came up with 'can't paste on the taskbar and stuff'.

sorin Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 I just wanted to add that the fact that Paint.NET is not able to open drag'n'dropped images or URLs is probably the most important missing feature. Today when we had multiple monitors it is high likely to want to drag and drop an image. Also, it should be able to keep the transparency if possible.
