pjones1063 / AspeQt-2k24

AspeQt emulates Atari SIO peripherals when connected to an Atari 8-bit computer with an SIO2PC cable. In that respect it's similar to programs like APE and Atari810. The main difference is that it's free (unlike APE) and it's cross-platform (unlike Atari810 and APE).

Drag&drop seems erratic (sometimes works, sometimes not) #1

Any progress on fixing this bug? Its been here for ages and its the same bug for all RespeQt/AspeQt versions (under Windows 7/10 anyways).

What version are you seeing this in? Windows, MacOS, Linux?

Can you list what actions you are doing to replicate the problem?

AspeQt 2k22, Win64, "2022 Release" released this 29 Dec 2021

What I do: I open AspeQt. Drag a ATR file on one of the drive slots - all works well. I do it again and again and suddenly I get the "forbidden icon". I click around the desktop, try again and out of the blue it works again. And then again not.

This seems to be a common Qt error and this error is years old. You find it in all the AspeQt / RespeQt versions of the last years.

Writing this I found a way to reproduce the error every time. I will show you in this short video.

As you hopefully can see: if I move the dragged file into the AspeQt window while exactly over a drive slot - all works well as long as I keep the dragged file in the AspeQt window. If I enter the AspeQt window over a non-drive slot element the "forbidden icon" appears and it stays as long as I am in the AspeQt window.

Should be easy to fix. ;)
