Feature Request: Support for Drag and Drop Functionality #16830

Closed krabhi1 closed 1 month ago

krabhi1 commented 2 months ago

Check for existing issues

Describe the feature

I would like to request the addition of drag-and-drop functionality in the Zed editor. This feature would allow users to easily move files within the editor or between different sections of the interface by simply dragging and dropping them.

If applicable, add mockups / screenshots to help present your vision of the feature

Hey @krabhi1, can you give me more details on specifically which things you are wanting to move? Zed has quite a bit of drag and drop functionality, but we are missing some things, such as:

like dropping files from file explorer to zed

Drag and dropping files from Dolphin doesn't work. This seems like a normal use case to me, but sadly does seem to be supported (yet).

(I wasn't sure if this warrants a ping, but this is in reply to Joseph's question for more feedback)

This should be fixed in 0.153 now that X11 drag and drop support got merged:

Confirmed! I can now drag and drop files out of Dolphin into Zed. Thank you! :heart:
