Is this a Python Tk limitation or a Tk limitation in general? Google
suggests that Tk itself supports some form of dnd.

PyQt will do drag and drop on all platforms. GTK does drag and drop on
Unix/X11, and to a lesser degree Win32--not sure about OS X support. I
believe wxWidgets also does some level of dnd on all platforms.

Drag-and-drop *is* quite doable with Tkinter. But it's certainly easier
in PyQt:

self.setFlag(G.QGraphicsItem.ItemIsMovable, True)

You can contact me off-list if you'd like to see a drag-and-drop
application that I first wrote using Tkinter, then reimplemented using PyQt.

HTH,

Hi Alan,

What OS are you running on? And by 'drag and drop' are you meaning you want to drag and drop on a GUI window, or are you wanting a droplet where you can drop your file/folder on the application icon?
