GfxDesigner: drag&drop for project.touchgfx

[ferro]

Hi Gfx Team,

Could you please implement drag&drop as an alternative to open a project.touchgfx ?

Thank you

Hello @ferro ,

In which case would the drag and drop be useful for you?

Do you want to be able to drag a .touchgfx project in the Designer main window at any time?
Do you want to be able to drag a .touchgfx file after clicking on "File" => "Open"?

Regards,

Hi @GaetanGodart 

"be able to drag a .touchgfx project in the Designer main window at any time?"

This would be ideal.

Until now, I've always closed the Designer, clicked on the project.touchgfx and let the OS handle it. Very slow. MSVC IDE spoiled me with my expectations - its very fast.

I just noticed that keeping the Designer open and opening a project.touchgfx via [file > open] is lightning fast.

[GaetanGodart · Accepted solution]

The new incoming version of TouchGFX Designer will open way faster, so if it is just to avoid closing then re-opening TouchGFX Designer because it is slow, it won't be that important soon.

Perhaps the new incoming version would be a sufficient solution and opening a new project from "File" => "Open" would be a sufficient work around while waiting for the new version?

Yes, it is good as it is. Thanks.
