If I drag a file from the thumbnails window to an explorer window, it shows the "+" icon as if it should be able to copy files this way. However, when you drop the file, it doesn't copy.

Sorry! I didn't read your post carefully. I thought you were trying to drag images to the IrfanView window. Why on earth would you try to drag images from the Thumbnail browser to the Windows Explorer window? You can copy and move images within the thumbnail viewer or drag and drop files within Windows Explorer.Last edited by Bhikkhu Pesala; 08.03.2008, 12:28 PM.Before you post ...

It is confusing. It looks as though you could drag and drop a thumbnail to another application but AFAIK all you can actually do is to drag and drop onto the tree area in the same window.
You cannot even drag and drop a thumbnail somewhere else in IrfanView. One very useful place to drag to would be the Slideshow list. That will accept drag and drop from external sources like Explorer but not from its own Thumbnail window.
P.S. Sorry, not quite true. You can also drag and drop a thumbnail into the main IV display window.Last edited by Mij; 08.03.2008, 03:41 PM.
