Dragging a picture within the same page operates as always.
To another page in the project
The receiving page is selected and the dragged item is cut and moved from the original page and pasted into this page. If the option key is down, a copy of the dragged item is pasted into this page.
To another application
The picture data and the picture’s file information will be made available to any applications that accepts interapplication drop and drag transactions.
From another application
Since ProView works from picture’s files, picture data being dropped from another application will be automatically saved as “Untitled.001” (the numbers will automatically increment) to the top of the drive on which ProView is running.
If the other application sends the file info, ProView will open the picture from that file.
From the finder
Either a single picture file or multiple picture files may be dragged into a ProView page. A single file will be opened as a normal “add picture”. You have several options when multiple picture files are dropped onto a ProView page.
If the pictures are dropped normally (with no modifier keys held down) all of the pictures will be added to the same page. Dropping multiple picture files with the option key held down will create a new pages for each picture and name the page that of the file name of the picture. The new pages will be opened with the default settings of the last page saved.
You may also hold down the combination of the option and control key. In this case each page will be resized to the picture. You do not need to press the modifiers until just before you drop the pictures (in case they conflict with other programs). Once the pictures are dropped, you do not have to keep the keys pressed while ProView adds the pictures. However, you may subsequently press any of the resize modifier key combinations during the add process and they will effect the pages being created. (These subsequent modifiers must be held during the creation of the pages.)
NOTE: You can stop a multiple picture drop by pressing command-period [ ‚åò-. ]
