Drag to move file to new instance issue after update to v7.3.3

Keyur Hariya · Mar 21, 2017, 3:35 PM

Hello,

I just updated my Notepad++ to version 7.3.3 and restarted it.
After restart I have lost the feature to Drag-Drop an open file and move/clone to new instance.
I made sure about the following option being unchecked:
Settings->Preferences->General->Lock(no drag and drop)

Is there any other option I need to check? Please help

Thanks,
Keyur.

Thanks Claudia!

This would fix the keyboard shortcuts. I am looking for Drag-Drop with mouse.
Is it also expected to be fixed in upcoming release?

Hello Keyur,

I think so. From commit (Fix drag and dropping tabs with multi-line enabled.)

Cheers

The Move/Clone To options aren’t back yet, but I just dragged/dropped multiple text files into an open NPP window and the tabs appear at the top just as they did in previous versions.

@Dave-Greene

what do you mean by

Move/Clone To options aren’t back yet

?

If I right click on a saved document tab I do see and can use the two functions.
