PreProcessing drag and drop files

Post by AstroBernd » 22 Jan 2022, 17:29

Bug: Drag and drop of image windows from the AA workdesk seems to work only for the Images box, not for the other ones (flat field, f. darks, dark frames). I typically hold my master darks and flats on the desktop during processing.

Improvement request: Also, i would like to be able to sort the file window on the lower left side by date (newest to oldest) to have the newest acquired files on top. With the newest browse function (very good function!!), it is not as critical anymore.

Thanks
Bernd

Hi, may you verify again? I could not find any problem in drag&drop. Does it work with AA7?

Hello Fabio,
It doesn't work for me neither in AA8 nor in AA7 (so, it is nothing new). It doesn't work in any of the AA variants (64bit, LAA, standard). Tested on 2 different laptops, both Win 10 Pro. It is not a major holdup, more an observation.
I have attached a screenshot.
Thanks a lot
Bernd

Could it be your technique? Tap touch pad and drag does not work. Tap release tap and drag works. At least for me.

In your screenshot you are dragging images labeled with [ ]
These images are not on disk, they are the ones opened in Astroart (in memory), they can be used only in the "Images" section, just for tests.

Hello Fabio, that’s the reason! Good to know. Not a problem, was just strange.
Iver, independent of using touchpad or mouse in my experience.
