Drag and drop stopped working

Cubase
1

Hello. Urgently ! Help!
Drag and drop stopped working. It is not possible to drag anything from external sources. Only works inside Cubase 13

Hi,

Could give us an example, what exactly doesn’t work for you, please?

Are you on Mac or Windows?

Suddenly disappeared. I can’t drag any sample from any folder on the disk. Before that everything was fine, I don’t know what happened. Is there a function to turn drag and drop on and off in the settings? …I have Windows 10…Cubase 13 with update
… SpectraLayers 10 - drag and drop works, everything is fine, but stopped working on Cubase 13

Hi,

No, the is no settings like this.

So did you try to drag and drop an audio file from the File Explorer to Cubase? What file type, please?

5

The issue has been resolved. Something happened to the license after the last update. Updated again, everything was back in place. Thanks for support.

Hi all. And again the same problem!!! Drag and drop files from external sources does not work again. The update doesn’t help. Do I need to uninstall all of Cubase 13???

Double check the Lock state of the track, please.

Hey brother.

What does that mean exactly?

I have the same issue on Cubase 13 where in other version of Cubase there is no issue.

Can you please assist?

Thanks :slight_smile:

Thanks.

Hi,

Could you make a video screen recording, please?

15

Here the guy shows the issue at the start.

In my case I don’t run CUbase as administrator so the solution is not relevant:

Thanks.

Hi,

Is the problem thah you cannot drag and drop within a track, or you cannot drop any content to the track, please?

Could you make a video of your problem, please?

17

The problem is that I cannot drag and drop audio files to tracks in Cubase 13.
As shown in the video I posted at 1:50 - 1:58.
It is exactly what I have.

If you still need a video, please let me know.

Thanks :slight_smile:

Hi,

A video can help, because we can see some details, you don’t describe or you don’t see.

Do you drag and drop from File Explorer, from MediaBay or from Pool? Do you get any hint with the cursor? What exaclty happens after?

19

Here we go.
On the same computer it doesn’t happen with Cubase 10.5.

Thanks.

Hi,

I see. This is a known issue. The drag and drop doesn’t work from the File > Import Audio dialog.

Please open File Explorer and drag and drop the file from this window.
