[feature request] drag pictures from the list view to external applications #145

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

Wouldn't it be nice to be able to move/copy pictures from the list view to
external applications? especially the file manager for easy exports, or the
terminal for easy command-line operations, etc.

The good news is that I already have a proposal (attached) based on
revision 282 ;)
The copy seems to work perfectly for both file manager and terminal.
The move works also, but the database has to be refreshed manually.

Please feel free to comment!

great !
I wanted to implement that in the past (copy(only) from jbrout to external).
I didn't reach to make it works !
So I take the patch, and will enable only the copy !
("Move" is not a good idea, and will need to refresh the db)

Hum...  Just one thing: I have tested it on Linux, where a URI is like 
  file://localhost/album/picture.jpg
But on Windows, we expect something like:
  file://localhost/C:/album/picture.jpg
Therefore, Windows probably needs an extra '/' between 'localhost' and the file
absolute path.

FYI, I was testing (unsuccessfully) drag'n'drop to windows explorer, then I 
found:
"gtk inter application dnd isn't implemented on win32..."
