Well, Bill, if you can figure this out, I (and I'm sure many others) will be *very* grateful.

Of course, you'll probably get it working at the same time 10.2 comes out with a working d&d api... ;-)

Seriously, though. If you figure this out, then I'll be happy, even if Apple delays the d&d api... I'm one of drag and drop's biggest fans, and it drives me nuts that my app doesn't have it.

That was a particularly amusing hunk of code to write-- very confusing given that I had never actually done drag-n-drop on Mac outside of Cocoa. There are some truly amusing anecdotes in some of the related tech notes..

-windowRef may not work and that may be exactly what the problem is! Thanks for pointing that out-- it dawns on me that what I likely need to do is convert the NSImage to a raw bitmap [not hard] and then convert that into whatever the heck it is that the Carbon based imaging code needs.

It shouldn't be too hard, but I'm posting it back to Cocoa-dev with the hopes that someone else has already figured it out and I won't have too...

I also thought that the -[NSWindow windowRef] method didn't work unless you originally created the window with -[NSWindow initWithWindowRef:] , or at least I vaguely remember it not working when I tried it, long ago with a plain old NSWindow created from a nib...
