Can i Drag files onto folder in dock?

Last question.

Thursday, February 22, 2007 by jimmyyy | Discussion: Docks

Its cool how you can drag a a file onto a dock icon exe and that program will launch opening that file. (like the Mac dock)

Is it also possible to drag a file onto a folder in the dock and it will copy or move the file into the folder, do you have to hold down ctrl when dragging of somthing?

If theres no option for this it would be a great option.

if theres no option for this does anyone know any software that can do this?

Drag & Drop, No - you end up dropping a new shortcut on the dock.
But you can right click a file and choose cut or copy and then right click the folder on the dock and choose paste

(Sir)Lantec,

Thanks for the reply, really liked that last wallpaper post.

PS i also tried ctrl-X & Ctrl-V, the cut works but the past doesn't.



That would be a great addition for a future release if any one wants to forward this.

'Ctrl + drag/drop' from desktop into dock folder


Also be cool if u could add an icon to the flyout menu by cut&past.

Yep. Winstep Xtreme can - you can't beat it in terms of functionality.
