Unable to catch dropped files on the map

[trixon]

Is it possible to handle dropped files on the MapView?
I'm trying the following without any luck.

        mMapView.setOnDragOver(dragEvent -> {
            Dragboard board = dragEvent.getDragboard();
            if (board.hasFiles()) {
                dragEvent.acceptTransferModes(TransferMode.COPY);
            }
        });

        mMapView.setOnDragDropped(dragEvent -> {
            System.out.println(dragEvent);
        });

I think that the browser / OpenLayers catch the drag event on the map view so that JavaFX does not get it. I am able to get the dragEneterd and dragExited events, but not the dragOver.

I'm not sure if it would make sense to catch a drag event in the javascript layer and pass it out to the java object. We would need to convert it to to a DragEvent with the dragboard and actual coordinates. Might be doable.

@sothawo Thanks, good to know that I'm not doing anything wrong then.

I'm mostly focused on the Swing based WorldWind but I'm working on getting the other "map engines" up to par, but this is not a big deal right now.

Thanks for making OpenLayers manageable in desktop apps.

I'll leave this issue open, would be a nice addition to add when I find the time
