DataFormats.Bitmap

[LoSTMaN]

Hi,

Did someone have a idea why this code always return False when i drag a
filename.bmp in my PictureBox.

Private Sub PictureBox1_DragEnter(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
DragEventArgs) Handles PictureBox1.DragEnter
If e.Data.GetDataPresent(DataFormats.Bitmap) Then ============>>>
Here, always return false
e.Effect = DragDropEffects.Copy
Else
e.Effect = DragDropEffects.None
End If
End Sub


Thank you.

A file is dragged (DataFormats.FileDrop), not a bitmap. For example, if you
make a screenshot, DataFormats.Bitmap is an available format in the
clipboard.

Use
Debug.WriteLine(String.Join(vbCrLf, e.Data.GetFormats))
to display the available data formats.

(or Clipboard.GetDataObject.GetFormats instead of e.Data.GetFormats for the
clipboard)
