V3.8 extends these capabilities and provides an important bug-fix for current users. Enhancements ------------ OverDrag - This versatile set of drag and drop features can now be extended to support any program's native d&d. You'll be able to open folders, scroll, rearrange, and minimize windows, expand branches in Tree view, and more, all while you drag. Mozilla - With Mozilla v1.4 or later, you can drag text and Urls from web pages & email to any DT-enabled window or object. NewView - Thanks to the author of this popular replacement for OS/2's help viewer, you can now drag text and access WPS objects from its help panels. This feature requires NewView v2.3.1 or later. 'Create Another' Menus - With v3.8, you can create any type of WPS folder directly from a standard file Open or Save As dialog. Point at a directory, use DT to popup its menu, then select any object on its Create Another menu. The WPS will handle the rest. Multiple File Drops - DT has always let you drop a file into a window to insert its name. Now you can drop any number of files to list them in the format of your choice: filename only, full pathname, or formatted directory entry. Bugs Fixed ---------- DragText - An attempt in v3.7 to fix a memory leak when dragging more than 255 characters of text resulted in a more serious memory leak elsewhere. This version should be leak-free. Mozilla - DT v3.8 includes a workaround for a bug found only in Mozilla v1.4GA. That version's use of a technique borrowed from DT conflicts with DT's OverDrag feature. A replacement file for Mozilla that fixes the problem is available here: http://e-vertise.com/dragtext/os2moz14fix1.zip DTProgram - The Scheduler function would delay execution of the next scheduled program if the machine went into a suspended state. v3.8 reduces this delay to a maximum of 30 seconds. DT's Basic features (d&d text, most OverDrag features, and DTProgram) are freeware and never require registration. DT's Extended features (files, access to WPS objects, and OverDrag's WPS features) offer a 6-week free trial. Continued use is only $20(US) through BMT Micro.
