Detecting Hovering Dragged Files

from Stardock Forums

Does anyone know how I can make a DesktopX object respond to dragged files that are hovering over the object before they are dropped?

Sub Object_OnDropFiles (files) responds after the mouse is released and the object does not seem to change state in response to a "mouse over" even though the operating system changes the cursor to indicate that files can be dropped.

Unfortunately this is not supported, but has been requested to the developers previously.

As a workaround, you can access the CursorX and CursorY properties of the System namespace, then compare against the object's or the object's parent's boundaries.
