It would be nice if we could view text/supported files when they are dragged and dropped onto Itsypad. It would be faster to do that instead of: right click → open with → select Itsypad

You can already do this, drop text files over existing tabs and it would open new tabs with the file you are dropping.

Oh. I tried it and it didn’t open. Let me try it again.

@nickustinov Won't it be better if you let the file open even when there are no open tabs? Why restrict drag and drop opening to occur only when dropping over an existing tab?
