XYplorer drag-drop behavior

Post by boyett »

Hello guys,
I do a lot of drop and drag, how to make XYplorer behave like Windows File Explorer. Please see my video.

What am I missing here? Dragging from Windows File Explorer AND XYplorer lead to the correct directory in the input field for free file sync?

I believe the wish is for XY to remain in background during trans-app drag-drop.

I just alt-tab to the target window, but I have to admit, WE behaves more user-friendly in this case. :whistle:

SammaySarkar,
You're right, I just want the XYplorer remain in the background while dragging the folder. Is it possible with the XY? I been using XY for how many years now and I liked it, but I keep going back to WE because I do a lot of drag and drop.

Tried again: I still do not succeed here. :(

The workaround (drag via taskbar) is still valid:
