Hi,

We have embedded the webview2 controller in a PB2022R3 application to show an angular website.

We'd like to implement drag&drop from powerbuilder to webview2.

The idea is to show the dragging in the website and ondrop fires an event in pb so we can handle the drop in pb

 

However, we're not receiving the dragenter event in the website

We do receive a mouseenter event in the website, but not while dragging...

 

I found this in the documentation:

https://docs.appeon.com/pb2022/pbug/ch04s05s01.html --> (Webbrowser) Does not support drag & drop in the web page

However, the webview2 control has properties AllowDrop & AllowExternalDrop

Does pb set these to false? I don't see a way to toggle these?

Is this something that might be foreseen in the future?

Hi Tom;

  Yes as outlined in the PB 2022 R3 documentation the current Web Browser control does not support Drag & Drop functionality.

This would be an enhancement request in order to gain access to the properties that you mentioned (I assume from the Microsoft documentation).

Regards .. Chris
