Hi everyone. I have an odd question.
Is it possible to use unity to make a program that lets you drag and drop files into the exported “game” you made?
Basically,
Can you make a white board program using unity?
Something for creating mood boards or recreating something like trello or milanote?
Based on a quick web search, this is going to be difficult, because drag and drop of files is handled by the OS and receiving files this way requires responding to a specific windows system message… and I don’t see an already implemneted way to implement this message in unity.
There’s this, but this is unstable and not exactly using documented functionality:
Appears what we said was against the rules or something @neginfinity . Didn’t realize what we talked about was against the rules. Now we know lol.
EDIT
(wasn’t told it was, just guessing by deleted replies).
(IGNORE THIS), wrong thread. Sorry for the mistaken post. I would delete this, but didn’t want to break the order of replies lol.
@N1warhead_1 : Confusing this thread with the other thread?
oh man, dang I didn’t even realize!
Thank you so much.
Sorry @neginfinity
check github too,

(not tested, and maybe theres more)
Thank you, everyone, for your insight.
Attempting to google this issue just gave me tutorials about project files.
try typing “github” in front of the search next time, that way it will mostly find existing repositories instead of a generalized search for the topic 
Not sure what happened, but nothing seemed to change on my end.
