You can provide different data flavors in the drag, one of which is the promised-files type that the Finder looks for. -dragPromisedFilesOfType: is a convenience method that creates a drag that just has the promised-files type in it; I think you’ll have to abandon it and create the drag yourself, declaring the promise type explicitly. —Jens_______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
