Drag and Drop option does not work for some reason on Windows 10 :/

I can import files when I click - import>file select manually. But its too time consuming if I have multiple different images, so Id like to import then right away by dropping them in the workspace area so that I get the import widow.

Can someone tell me what I can do? I have Windows 10 and Tvp 10.5

No, you can't use DragnDrop or the clipboard, unfortunately.

I assume your files are all named differently, not following any scheme? In that case you could use a renaming app to change their name to something like image001, image002 and so on, which will be imported by TVP in one go.

Hello, what do you mean clipboard? It worked fine on a laptop a few months ago, when I could drop and drag, the same windows 10 and tvpaint, but it doesnt seem to work on my new PC :/

I have random names on files, but they are either ending with jpeg or png. It worked fine before to drag and drop, so I wonder if there is some option I can click

The file extension doesn't matter, only the file name.

Just tested, I can drag'n'drop on Mac, just never used it because TVP at full screen obscures any finder window.

Hello, is your TVPaint 32 bit by any chance? Yesterday I had a user who had a similar problem and using a 64 bit build fixed it, it was on v11, though.
