Not at the moment, but I will consider this for future versions.

Re: click on it nothing happens (1 replies, posted in Dropzone Support)

I need more information than that. Is this via the Mac App Store or the old (0.6) dock based version?

How are you trying to open it and what happens exactly?

Re: Dropzone 2 - Location (1 replies, posted in Feature Requests)

The alternative is Circles which is activated by dragging items to the middle right of the screen or moving the mouse there and clicking the half Circle that appears.

Try Circles, it gives you a much larger dragging target and is great if you have a lot of items in your menu bar.

Re: ImageShack (2 replies, posted in Dropzone Support)

Hi Michael

I had someone else have a similar issue and the solution was to re-install the ImageShack destination script manually by downloading it and double clicking it. Then delete your existing ImageShack destination in the preferences and re-add it.

Here's a link to the ImageShack destination:

Try relaunching the app if you're still stuck.

Re: Change the Circles position (2 replies, posted in Feature Requests)

I've got a lot of feedback from others who want this option as well so there's a good chance this will find its way into a future version.

Re: Issue when multiple desktops are activated (6 replies, posted in Dropzone Support)

I upgraded to 10.7.3 and I'm still not able to reproduce this issue. When you say "multiple desktops are activated" am I correct in thinking you mean you have added desktops using the plus in the top right of mission control (screenshot)

I tried adding a few desktops and Circles still activates fine on all desktops and in fullscreen apps. Do you have dual monitors or is there something else I'm missing here?

If possible, it would be very useful to see a short screen recording of this issue occurring. Thanks.

Re: Dropbox Error 404 (2 replies, posted in Dropzone Support)

Are you sure you entered the Dropbox UserID correctly?

Also, download the latest version of the Dropbox extension from http://aptonic.com/extend.php (it was just updated) and then try resetting up the destination from scratch using the steps in this guide:

Re: Print extension issues (18 replies, posted in Dropzone Support)

The Dropzone Print destination doesn't currently support printing of Word Documents or changing print settings.

I'm working on a better version of the Print destination. I whipped up the current one in a few minutes to just print images, text and PDFs but it has been a lot more popular than I expected so I am now improving it.

Re: Drag & Drop stopped working (4 replies, posted in Dropzone Support)

Try Dropzone 2.0. Earlier versions of Dropzone could have issues like this due to having to use some hacks to integrate with the dock. Dropzone has now moved to the menubar.

See http://aptonic.com/dropzone2

Re: change "install application" folder (4 replies, posted in Dropzone Support)

Note that there's now a preference in 2.0 to make Dropzone always install to the main Applications folder rather than the user Application folder.

To get to the option, open the Preferences, select your Install Application destination and hit edit. The option should be ticked automatically. Now hit update and you should be good to go. Note that last step - you MUST hit update for the database to be updated, otherwise the option will not take effect.

Re: Issue when multiple desktops are activated (6 replies, posted in Dropzone Support)

Thanks mzch. I have not been able to reproduce this myself yet, do you know if it happened on 10.7.2?

I am downloading the 10.7.3 combo update now. Once I've updated I will investigate further.

Re: Moving files within a drive is as slow as copying (3 replies, posted in Dropzone Support)

I'm not aware of any issues when copying to a USB drive. Make sure you are running the latest version (currently 0.6) and see if you still have problems.

If it's still failing, open the Dropzone preferences and do Cmd+Shift+D then paste me all output from the debug console after the failed move.

Re: Lion (2 replies, posted in Dropzone Support)

I can confirm that Dropzone is now fully compatible with Lion.

There was an issue with FTP not working and a few other minor things but these have all been fixed now. Make sure you are running the latest version (currently 0.6).

Re: Copy to selected folder (1 replies, posted in Dropzone Support)

You can do this, simply add a Copy/Move Files destination to your grid that points at the correct folder.

Re: UI status updates are slower than script (1 replies, posted in Dropzone Support)

See http://aptonic.com/api/index.html#debugging

This is usually caused by sending output direct to Dropzone via ruby without going through the $dz methods. Your script is not allowed to produce **ANY** other output whatsoever except what is produced by the $dz methods.

The $dz methods wait for an acknowledgment from Dropzone before continuing. This is the only way to guarantee that Dropzone has had time to process each command.

Paste your script and I'll take a look.

Re: Move window stays after move (1 replies, posted in Dropzone Support)

I did make some changes to the way file moving works in 0.4.

Take a look at the debug console after the failing operation by right clicking on the Dropzone dock icon, clicking Preferences... and then hit Command+Shift+D.

Paste any output here and I should be able to figure out the issue.
