Hi Andrew,

Thank you. Do you mind if I ask how you were able to get the copy and paste to work?

Hi Patrick,

I think medm must use a different drag-drop mechanism from that used by Qt.
The best I could do was use middle-click on medm to copy the PV name into the

copy-paste buffer, and then paste it to a Qt widget.

 

Regards

Andrew

Hi,

 

I was wondering if anyone has been able to get a Qt widget to accept channel name drops from MEDM?

 

Thank you,
Patrick
