Drag 'n drop outside of XYP minimizes target

Hi - low-level user and trying to DnD files from XYP to a program. Every time I try, the target program minimizes; I can just use Windows Explorer (works fine with the target program) but would prefer a way to do it with XYP; does anyone know how to do this?

have the same question here, but in my case, the target program goes below xyp right after I click on the file, so I need to change the window size and location of both xyp and target window to drag.windows explorer will not be on the top after I click on the file. Don't know if it is about system/program/window settings or should be doing inside xyp's code?

Just drag the item over the taskbar entry of the target window, which will bring its window up to the topmost position again?
Apart from that, XY would need to check if a click inside its window was released (when it is not on top of the stack) and as long that's not the case, stay on its current position on the stack)

drag over the taskbar entry is one way to do that, but a little bit bother. hope one day XY would implement this function,
