'Drag and drop' into EZ Drummer 3 not working

[jbmestelan]

Thanks for giving yabridge a shot!

• I read through both the troubleshooting and the known issues sections, and my issue wasn't listed there

Problem description

With EZ Drummer 3:

• drag and drop from the plugin to the host works alright; for example: to move a midi clip to the main sequencer
• BUT: drag and drop from a file manager (Thunar) to the plugin does not work

This prevents from assigning a custom user sample to a piece of kit.

What did you expect to happen?

• In the 'Drums' tab, select a kit element
• expand the dialog on the left of the screen
• drag and drop a sample from Thunar to assign it to the element

What actually happened?

Nothing happens when we drag and drop a sample from Thunar to the plugin window (or rather: the file icon moves back to Thunar)

Maybe it's not a bug in Yabridge. There's a related discussion in REAPER's forum. https://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=292802

I have this issue with all wine plugins. you can't drag from the DAW or a file manager into the plugin but you can drag out of the plugin. I use Reaper, Mixbus (which is Ardour) and Bitwig. Same problem in all hosts.
