Drag&Drop to the sidebar: calling code at the D&D target?

Jan Schulz  |     |  Tags:  lotusscript drag&drop sidebar  |  Comments (2)
Dear lazyweb: I've some problems with Drag&Drop into the sidebar.

The goal: drop any notes document to a sidebar target and do some LS magic with them (create a new document, call some functions from a LS-lib -> add a eProductivity Action from any NotesDocument).
The Idea: use a Folder and the Drag&Drop/AddToFolder events, add it to a Outline, add the outline to a form, add the form to the sidebar.
The Problem: using the "QueryAddToFolder"-event (and probably "QueryDragDrop" -> couldn't get it to fire...) on a folder will not work, because the event is called on the source folder, not the target :-(

Is there any way to get to the dropped documents in the target design element? And call LS function from there?

I also thought about java sidebar views (example @ SNAPPS), but some functions are in LS and I can't replicate them in java (source is hidden) :-( And I didn't find a way to call LS from Java.

Any Ideas?

1 Karsten Lehmann      Permalink There is a way to call Lotusscript from Java, at least for Notes 8.5.1.
You can use the NotesUIWorkspace.runAgent() of the new Java UI classes.
See this blog posting for details:
http://blog.mindoo.com/web/blog.nsf/dx/11.10.2009174606KLELHE.htm

For earlier Notes versions, there might be some workarounds like launching a Notes page via Notes URL from the Java sidebar plugin code. In the page you could call the Lotusscript code and pass the URLs of the dropped Notes documents.
