drag and drop for file upload? was created by dascher
I couldn't find any mention in this forum of a drag and drop feature for a file upload field - so here it is. Is there a way to do this rather than use the "Choose File" button? It seems like this kind of thing has been around long enough that it has become a pretty standard way to select a file. It doesn't look terribly difficult to implement on one's own - and it shouldn't impact any of the security features that Vis-Forms already has.

I'm hoping that your response will be that this feature will be in the next release appearing tomorrow...

Hello dasher,

I basically agree with your assessment.
I even created a wish list development issue for this.
However, only with a rather low priority and not explicitly addressed for the forum.

I have now changed both and the issue now reads as follows:
Issue [VF-769] Forum: Upload Field: UI: Add Drag&Drop possibility for local files

When we release the new feature, you will be explicitly informed about the release here in the topic.

Just for your information:
It's a bit more work than you described above.
We render visforms quite differently depending on the chosen UI framework.
For each of the supported UI frameworks and sub-layouts, the new feature needs to be implemented/adapted and also well tested.

Thank you again for your great suggestion!

Kind regards, Ingmar
