ScriptName The name of the script to run

Returns "OK" on success.

Description

Sets the drag enter handler.
Specify a filename and script name to have this script being called when a drag operation enters the window. This gives you the possibility to draw something like a note "Drop here".
The script parameter will be the drop area reference.


With plugin version 6.0 or newer the script name can be a script ID number. In that case the plugin queries the script name for the given script ID. This allows to call scripts by ID and avoid problems if scripts are later renamed.

Notice: FileMaker 19.2 adds a fmplugin extended privileges. If you have such an extended privileges to allow the plugin to trigger scripts, you need to grant permissions for it. If such a privilege is not defined, the plugin is allowed to trigger scripts. See FileMaker product documentation for details.

Examples

Registers drag enter handler:

MBS( "DragDrop.SetDragEnterHandler"; $dropHandle; Get ( FileName ); "MyDragEnter")
