Product idea submission: Enhancing Creo Toolkit APIs to Support Drag and Drop Event Handling.

[Sampath]

The Creo Parametric CAD application currently supports drag-and-drop functionality for opening design files directly within the session view area. However, as part of a customization initiative using Creo Toolkit,

I am seeking the ability to intercept these drag and drop events when a file is dragged into the Creo Parametric session. At present, there appears to be no API available within the Creo Toolkit that facilitates the interception or handling of these specific events.

Upon reaching out to PTC support, I was directed to knowledge article CS230497, which confirms that capturing drag and drop events through the Creo Toolkit is currently not supported. The support team recommended submitting this as a product enhancement idea.

Therefore, I’m formally requesting the addition of APIs to the Creo Toolkit that would enable developers to capture and respond to drag-and-drop events within Creo Parametric. I invite fellow community members to vote for this proposal to help make Creo Toolkit more flexible and responsive to advanced customization needs.

Most of the notifier are driven by menu picks, not by reaching a Creo function. But you say that even this PRO_WINDOW_OCCUPY_POST notifier is not informing you. I can imagine a

mix of not triggered notifier with this event could help. 

One the other hand, I have no idea why PRO_MODEL_RETRIEVE* can’t be fired on drop. Okay it is not menu driven, but PTC‘s handler could call the same notifier.
