Drag file from windows and drop into flex application
Hi All,
Is there any way to drag a file from desktop(or any other location from hard disk) and drop it into flex application?
I can use FileReference upload/load API. But I don't want to use browse API instead I would like to give an option to user to drop a file on to flex application.
Regards,
Raj

If it's an AIR app there are tutorials and documentation online on dragging
and dropping from outside the program.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8718123/dragging-from-desktop-to-air-application
If it's a browser app then you may have to use HTML API to accept drag and
drop. You can code it yourself using HTML API and ExternalInterface or it
looks like Ardisia labs has components for it too. In my opinion, or I've
been taught, it's better to buy components if possible bc hundreds of
customers are using, testing and catching bugs.

Ardisia has a very good component that supports HTML Drag/Drop in Flex applications (non-AIR).
Take a look at: http://www.ardisialabs.com/demo/ (search for HTML DragDrop)
Documentation: http://www.ardisialabs.com/documentation/htmlDragDrop
Unfortunately, Ardisia is not free or open-source.

Agreed, I indeed have bought a license.
But not everyone would be able to afford it, hence added that note.
Thanks,

That’s my perspective as well.
$600 per developer for their component library is more than reasonable.

So give it a try and support these kind of Flex companies ;-)

Ardisia has a very good component that supports HTML Drag/Drop in Flex
applications (non-AIR).
Take a look at: http://www.ardisialabs.com/demo/ (search for HTML DragDrop)
Documentation: http://www.ardisialabs.com/documentation/htmlDragDrop
Unfortunately, Ardisia is not free or open-source.
Thanks,

Is this an AIR app or browser app? I know you can do it in an AIR app.
