Drag and drop

[Michael Herron]

Tiff images dragged and dropped onto the ImageJ icon should open  
shouldn't  they?
On my mac (G5, OS 10.4.3) this does not seem to work. Any idea why?

Yes, the should.

Are you using ImageJ 1.35g or later? Earlier version of ImageJ on OS X
required the QuitHandler plugin for drag and drop to work and the file
would sometimes not open if ImageJ was not already running.

Windows users should also upgrade to 1.35g or later to prevent another
copy of ImageJ from being launched when a file is dragged and dropped
on the ImageJ icon.
