[suggestion] Add the ability to drag and drop documents to the "Compare Documents" window

Post by Jensen Head »

In the current version of the application, to select a document with which you want to compare the current open document, you need to either click the button with the yellow folder, or click on the "Click here to select the new document ..." area, or double-click on the large area with the icon PDF. I suggest the ability to drag and drop a file from the file manager onto the PDF icon area.

Hello Jensen Head,

The Comparison tool is still undergoing active development, so I will pass your suggestion to the devs working on it for consideration!

Kind regards,
Stefan

[bug] When dragging a document from the file manager to the right half of the "Compare Documents" window, the document is not added to the "New Document" block, but to the "Old Document" block (left).

Hello Jensen Head,

I managed to reproduce this, so I created this ticket for our devs:
#6701: Editor 383: Dragging files over the compare document window always puts them on the left.

Kind regards,
Stefan

Fixed an issue with the 'Drag and Drop' of files placed on the right side of the 'Compare Documents' dialog box. Previously, dropping files there replaced the documents on the left side of the dialog box.
