Drag and drop PSPro X

[Ken Veal]

Is there anyway of dragging edited images out of PSProX into another
folder after they have been edited....................Ken

Out of Paint Shop Pro? As in don't save the image just drag it into a file?

No, I don't believe that is possible.

What I was thinking of was that after a jpeg image has been edited in PSPro X instead of using the save as method it would be much quicker to be able to drag and drop that edited and named image into a my pics folder

Just out of curiosity, I tried dragging dropping from several different image editing programs. None of them allowed this. I think the reason for that is, they do not contain the actual image. It's like VideoStudio, the image you're working on still resides in the folder on your system where you "retrieved" it from. When opening an image in PSPP, you're just creating a link to it, and PSPP places duplicate linked image on the screen for you to manipulate. Once you finish editing, any changes need to be applied. This is done with the Save or Save as commands. When you click the Save icon, it then applies the changes to the original source image. Save as however, creates another image, with a new name, having all the edits applied.

So basically it's the thumbnail representation you're working on in the program. Nothing is done to the original/source image, until you tell the program to apply them.

You can of course drag a picture INTO a photo editing program such as
PhotoImpact
Paint Shop Pro
PhotoShop

It is though a one way street - you cannot drag them OUT onto the hard drive.

Thanks men.Thought it might be something like Ron said but I was hoping
to be told that there is a "working" folder whare I could drag the edited image from.I only discovered yesterday that you can drag inwards instead
of double clicking on the image or going to file-open to get the image into PSPro, but was dissapointed I could not drag outwards.
