take the results you get for “folder of images” and try hunting for
autopopulate. Alternately, you could look at the lower right-hand
corner of the umenu help file….

this is a very different concept, and you guys are discussing two
different things.

Greg/Dan:

Dragging a folder from the finder to a dropzone to autopoulate an
ubumenu is what you are suggesting.

what is being asked is

Drag from one pwindow or window, with a mac like icon being dragged
(the slightly transparent version) to another pwindow to enable some
functionality within max msp proper.

Like any cocoa app inherits from the OS, etc.

See?

I wasn’t thinking about cocoa apps at all. If you can do the dropzone stuff,
now about mouse stuff, and you’ve got the filename of the loaded film, then
you could use those bits to make something that might do the trick.

well, that’s kinda true, but if you really want to do that (i hope you have a really good reason!), you can fake a jit.window by putting a pwindow and dropfile in a patch, and formatting/sizing the window appropriately with commands to thispatcher and the pwindow.
