FIXED:[ 099 2017.3580 ] Drop Script in Perform Mode

TouchDesigner 099
2018.3580

Windows 10
GTX 980

Interesting find here.

A component that’s viewer active will fire a drop script in network, but won’t fire as a floating window. Similarly, the drop script won’t fire in perform mode.

In the attached example all args should print to the text port, and the file path should appear in as the background texture. This works when the op is viewer active, but not when floating or in perform mode.

Works as expected in 088 build 62380

Decided to test this on a mac as well.

On a mac this works as expected. I’ll check another windows machine tomorrow once I’m in the office.

Checked on another windows 10 machine, and confirmed that this is misbehaving for 099 on win10.

Thanks for the report. Fixed in build 2017.3940.
