[Mac, 2.8.1] Mac dragging cursor and icon

Hi

my long time dream was to encapsulate a kind of GetSelectedContent on a wxWindow, like MacApp did, and use that for all data transfers be it pasteboard or drag/drop so this behavior would come from the right place. The drag region should show the outline of the selection or even the selection's bitmap being dragged. This unfortunately is not exposed AFAIK in our API, it could be something like a wxBitmap either upon a wxDropSource or upon a wxDataObject perhaps

Best,

Stefan

Hi,

In the mac version of dnd.cpp, the code defines the drag region (which defines the drag image) as a simple rect of 10 pixels. It then also uses custom cursor as additional information.

This behavior is quite not mac-like. As ALL application which allow drag and drop, show some kind of an image to symbolize what is being dragged.

Is there any intention of changing this?

If not, does anyone mind if I go ahead and change it?

Thanx
