What event are you sending with that? Plus the docs read that it needs
to be invoked from the mouseDown: method since that has an event to
attach it to. Even if that wasn't the case, the entire point is that
you can't put extra data on the pboard with that method. with mine all
the data you want arrives intact then you attach the file promise
stuff. Though I don't  use any extra types you can easily enough
change the code to support them.

Though do you have a code sampel with this working? Because when I
tried that method assumed that yes the mouse is down and being
dragged.
