      None of it is bugs...or maybe middle mouse button is...I can't test so I dunno...

      but Ctrl+Shift shouldn't be seen as holding down Ctrl anymore...rather it should be seen as activating Drag 'n drop. As I wrote above...it's all how it works in Explorer. If you click on a not selected item, that item gets selected and you can drag 'n drop it...

        When middle mouse button is selected for drag 'n drop, clicking an item with the middle mouse button in the playlist editor selects that file. If you then move the mouse cursor, the item follows. I.e. it behaves as if the left mouse button is held down, while no mouse button is pressed.
        To end this, I had to press left or right mouse button.


        [edit]
        Select a few files (or just one). Then click one the selected files with the middle mouse button. Then try to drag another file. Instead of selecting and dragging that file it will drag and drop the previously selected files.
        If you do not middle-click one of the selected files before dragging, there's no problem.


        [edit2]
        With both mouse-buttons selected for drag 'n drop...

        Select a file. Then drag 'n drop another file.
        If you drag 'n drop that file by clicking and holding left and then right mouse button, it'll work fine.
        If you drag 'n drop that file by clicking and holding right and then left mouse button, the previously selected file will be dragged instead...

        If you're bored go here or, if the boredom is more serious, here.

          Well, I'll have to halt this development until I can get myself a three-button mouse...impossible to say from this what is actually going on...

          The edit2 I see where it's coming from though...will fix it.

                Any complaints to the plugin? I'm not sure it will do much more than it already does in this version...so maybe submit to get a broader user base?

                      One suggestion: rename the plugin to 'Drag 'n drop from Playlist Editor', since that's what it does?

                        I can't drop to the DL. Am I doing something wrong?

                        If I have my usb-mp3player as a root in DL it would be very nice to be able to move the files from the playlist editor directly to that drive inside DL.

                          You can only drop to a playlist in DL for now...though I think what you suggest should be implemented.

                            That'll be great

                            //edit//
                            On many mp3-players (like mine) the files are sorted in the chronological order in which they are copied to the device. So if it is possible to make it drop the files in the same order they are listed in the playlist editor, that'd be even better.

                              See if version up on site now puts them in the correct order...

                                Perfect! Drops files to WindowsExplorer works just fine in the order of the PlaylistEditor.

                                As long as d/d to a folder inside DL does not work, drop to an usb device will not work either, obviously.
