Files dropped from the OS on the Layers panel are placed with Place Embedded at the spot under the pointer, captured at drop time:

  • on a row, or the gap above it: directly above that row (not above the selected layer);
  • on the empty space under the last row: directly below it.

Several files in one drop keep their dropped order: each lands above the layer the file before it made, and a file that fails to land leaves the spot to the next. If the document is no longer active or the target layer was removed before placement, it reports an error instead of placing elsewhere. file.placeEmbedded gains optional above / below layer ids; the web shell routes the same way (PhotocraftApp::dropped_destinations). Preset files still open normally.

Related to #1174.

Rebased onto current main without the #10720 commit (drop routing, folder message, drag logging), so review stays separate.

Verified on the final commit: cargo test -p photocraft-engine --lib place_embedded_, cargo test -p photocraft-ui-egui --lib file_open (76 passed, including new tests for row/gap/empty-space targeting, drop order, and a failed first file), the panic_hunt test, clippy -D warnings on engine and ui-egui, cargo xtask layers, cargo xtask wasm (type-check of the wasm targets) and cargo check -p photocraft-web --target wasm32-unknown-unknown. Not done: no wasm runtime or visual check of the panel, and no cargo xtask test-corpus (no format crate touched). Dropping on the Layers panel when no rows are drawn (a filter that matches nothing) places above the active layer.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Drag and drop files onto the Layers panel to add them relative to the selected layer or group.
    • Files dropped on the canvas or Layers panel are placed in the document; preset files and files dropped elsewhere continue to open normally.
    • Browser-based drops now support placement in the Layers panel and on the canvas.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Drops retain their intended document and layer destination while being processed, and are rejected if that destination is no longer available.
    • Folder drops show a folder-specific error, and unreadable files report an error instead of being placed.

Walkthrough

File drops can target the canvas or Layers list. The app captures each placement destination before file reads complete, then validates the captured document and anchor before placing bytes.

Changes: Layer-targeted file drops

Layer / File(s) Summary
Drop target selection and destination capture

The UI records the clipped Layers-list bounds and detects drops over the Layers list or canvas. Placement routing captures the active document and selected layer. Tests cover target detection, preset routing, and obscured or unavailable targets.
Destination-aware drop queue and routing

The placement inbox carries file-read results and destinations. Web and desktop drop handling route files to opening or placement, report folder and read errors, and log drag-hover state. Tests cover read failures, folders, and ordered drops. The development guide and wiki record drag logging and PR verification details.
Captured-anchor placement

The placement consumer validates the captured document and layer anchor. The engine exposes place_bytes_at to insert relative to the supplied anchor. Tests cover destination changes and invalid imports.

Report Canvas file read failures in the web drop handler.

When bytes_async fails for a file dropped on the canvas, the else branch only calls log::error!. The file is dropped without a placement and without an in-app message. The Layers branch sends the error to place_inbox, but the canvas branch does not. Route canvas read errors through place_inbox too, so the existing DropPlace::ReadError path reports them.

Minor · Functional Correctness · Heavy lift

Bind browser canvas drops to their target document.

Canvas drops store no document ID. A browser read can finish after the user switches documents. place_next_dropped then calls place_bytes, which inserts into the active document at that time (crates/engine/src/cmd/file_cmds/open.rs:254). Store the document ID with Canvas drops, as Layers drops do. Skip placement when that document is no longer active.

468-475: Trivial · Performance & Scalability · Poor tradeoff

Read and place Layers-list files without blocking the UI thread.

Files dropped on the Layers list are read and placed synchronously in place_next_dropped. That method runs in each frame's UI pass. For an absolute path, photocraft_format::read_file reads the whole file, and place_bytes_at then decodes and commits it before the frame finishes. A large file can therefore stop the window from responding until both steps complete. The read is bounded only by MAX_OPEN_BYTES, so no smaller limit applies. This path also has no progress indicator or cancellation.

The canvas drop route for absolute paths already uses this synchronous file.placeEmbedded path. The new Layers route reuses it, so this is not a new blocking mechanism. Placement commands have no background job path. Only file.open has one. Moving placement off the UI thread needs a job-capable placement command. Because the blocking behavior predates this change, it can be deferred to a follow-up.

Add the Layers target to the routing matrix.

The matrix covers Canvas, both tab positions, and Elsewhere. It omits Layers. A change that routes a .grd preset to placement on the Layers list would still pass this test. The Layers assertions at lines 1404-1405 cover only image.png and brushes.abr. Adding Layers to the loop checks that Layers routes non-preset files to Place and preset files to Open.

Test the preset routing that the doc comment describes.

The doc comment says a preset file "goes to its library instead," but the test checks only the placement queue. /pics/set.abr does not exist on disk. Its open fails and reports an error notice, and the queue assertion still passes. A change that silently drops a preset would also pass this test.

Use a preset file that exists on disk, in a temporary directory as the neighboring tests do. Assert that the preset reaches its library and that no error notice is reported. If that library assertion is out of scope for this test, narrow the doc comment to the behavior the test checks.

Report unreadable Layers drops when the read fails, not when placement reaches them.

A ReadError for a Layers drop waits in drop_places while a Free Transform is open. The failure notice then appears only after the user commits or cancels that transform. In the web shell, report the error in the place_inbox drain loop at frame.rs:103-108, or otherwise keep it out of the placement queue.

Minor · Handle the floating Layers layer before the generic covered-point rule. · layers.rs:344-346

crates/ui-egui/src/panels/layers.rs:344-346
Minor · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Handle the floating Layers layer before the generic covered-point rule.

The in-root floating Layers panel uses Order::Middle. The current Background-only registration skips it, and drop_target rejects covered points before it checks the Layers rectangle. An image dropped on that list can therefore open instead of starting Place Embedded.

Record the Layers LayerId and match that layer before the generic covered-point rule. Keep unrelated panels and dialogs on the existing open-file path.

The native Canvas branch currently stores DropPlace::File(f). If placement waits for another queued file or an active transform, the user can switch documents before place_next_dropped consumes the file. The DropPlace::File path then places the file in the new active document without checking the document that was active at drop time.

Use the existing destination-aware DropPlace::LayerFile path for Canvas drops:

Suggested fix

-                } else {
-                    self.drop_places.push_back(DropPlace::File(f));
+                } else if let Some(st) = self.session.active() {
+                    self.drop_places.push_back(DropPlace::LayerFile(f, DropDestination::Canvas { doc: st.doc.id }));
                 }

Thanks for this, @dark13b. A review against current main found these to address before it can merge:

  • This branch still includes commit d7bb456 from open PR Drops: route by a pure function, say when a folder is dropped, log how far a drag got (#10492) #10720 (drop routing, folder message, drag logging). Please land or rebase after Drops: route by a pure function, say when a folder is dropped, log how far a drag got (#10492) #10720 and drop that commit here, so review and credit stay separate
  • Merge current main: conflicts in apps/photocraft-web/src/web.rs, crates/engine/src/cmd/file_cmds.rs, crates/engine/src/cmd/file_cmds/open.rs, crates/ui-egui/src/app/frame.rs, crates/ui-egui/src/file_open.rs (+file_open/tests.rs) and crates/ui-egui/src/services.rs
  • The description still says native tests, the wasm build and visual checks have not passed. Please run cargo xtask wasm (apps/photocraft-web/src/web.rs changes) and the ui-egui tests, then update the description
  • crates/ui-egui/src/file_open.rs:378 and :411 use st.active_layer as the insertion anchor, so a file dropped between two other rows lands next to the selected layer instead. Could the anchor come from the row/gap under the pointer at drop time?
  • Several files dropped at once share one anchor and stack in reverse queue order (noted in the description). Please keep the dropped order or add a test that pins it

Push when ready and we'll take another look.

A file dropped from the OS onto the Layers panel is placed directly above
the row (or the lower row of the gap) under the pointer, captured at drop
time, instead of above the selected layer. Over the empty space under the
last row it goes below that row. file.placeEmbedded gains optional "above"
and "below" layer ids (a missing layer, or both at once, is an error).

All files of one drop share the spot; each lands above the layer the file
before it made, so they keep their dropped order, and a file that fails to
land leaves the spot to the next. The web shell routes the same way through
PhotocraftApp::dropped_destinations.

Rebased onto current main without the storytold#10720 commit.

Thanks @tanish2k09, all points addressed and pushed (head aab498b75, CI green):

  • Drops: route by a pure function, say when a folder is dropped, log how far a drag got (#10492) #10720 commit: dropped. The branch is now a single commit on current main, so Drops: route by a pure function, say when a folder is dropped, log how far a drag got (#10492) #10720 stays separate.
  • Conflicts with main: gone. The branch was rebuilt on main's place pipeline (PlaceInput / apply_place, DropPlace::At) instead of merged.
  • Checks: cargo xtask wasm, cargo check -p photocraft-web --target wasm32-unknown-unknown, the ui-egui tests, clippy, layers and panic_hunt pass locally and in CI. The description is updated, including what was not done (no visual or wasm runtime check of the panel).
  • Anchor: no longer active_layer. The Layers panel records its rows each frame, and a drop goes directly above the row under the pointer (or the lower row of the gap), captured at drop time. Over the empty space under the last row it goes below that row. file.placeEmbedded gets optional above / below layer ids (a missing layer, or both, is an error).
  • Several files: they keep the dropped order. Each lands above the layer the previous file made, and a file that fails to land leaves the spot to the next. Tests pin the order, the failed-first-file case and the row, gap and empty-space targeting.

Known limit: with no rows drawn (a filter that matches nothing) a drop goes above the active layer.

Thanks for the update, @dark13b. A fresh review against current main found these still to address before it can merge:

  • Thanks for working through all the points. Main has moved again: please merge or rebase onto current main, which now conflicts in crates/ui-egui/src/app.rs and crates/ui-egui/src/file_open.rs.

Push when ready and we'll take another look.

Resolve conflicts in ui-egui app.rs and file_open.rs (and engine file_cmds.rs, file_cmds/tests.rs): keep main's drop routing (DropRoute, target_at, folder_error, drop logging, cursor_pos fallback) and route Layers drops through it as placements, keeping dropped_destinations, Layers rows and the above/below anchors.
