Once you've loaded a track to the preview deck you should be able to drag it to a deck or sampler.

This is related to Bug #⁠408111.

...it'd be great if you could drag a track from any deck to any other deck.

The way I imagine we would implement this would support deck to deck dragging as well (in the simplest form though it wouldn't do instant-doubles. that's a lot more complicated)

Currently WWaveformView and WSpinny supporting dropping files onto them. Both of these have valid mouse drag events. I can't modify them so that I can a pick a track while mouse drag. The valid place where I can add a mouse drag event is were the track name and album name are written. Any other ideas? Or am I missing something

Being able to drag the track name onto another deck would be very helpful. It would be great to be able to do this via controller scripts as well, but we definitely need some way to move a track to another deck.

Is this not a duplicate of Bug #⁠408111?

Nope, this is just to support dragging tracks between decks just like you would from library to a deck. Instant doubles is way more complicated (copies the entire deck state, not just the track).

I just posted a duplicate over at bug #⁠1271812, but with an extra request to enable library-style right clicking on track titles. Copying comments from there:

It would be good if it were possible to drag tracks from decks/samplers to other decks/samplers/the library. Obviously dragging on the waveform is no good, but currently dragging on the track title/artist/album in the deck/sample does nothing, and this could be a good pick-up point.

Like-wise, it's not possible to right-click on a track in a deck/sampler at the moment. It would be good if the track titles/artist/album in the decks/samplers acted the same as the track rows in the library for right clicking.

Hm, I think we have a bug for the right-click of track text widgets but I can't find it at the moment. Maybe we should rename bug #⁠1271812 to address it.

At the moment, on a recent git build, on linux, using LateNight, it's only possible to drag from the artist name, and not the track name. I guess that's a bug? It halves the draggable area...

Hm, yes it should work for both widgets (it's actually the same widget/code for both). I wonder if this is some kind of occlusion bug where there's an invisible other widget on top of the track name. Could you run with --developer and hover over the area that is not draggable and post the object name of the widget you're clicking on?
