TracksBoard.ItemSoundFileFromClipboardPaste method |
|
Remarks
Pastes one or more sound file items, previously copied into the clipboard from Windows Explorer, to the TracksBoard session's stream previously created through the TracksBoard.Create method.
Supported sound file formats are the same mentioned inside the LoadSound method.
Important note about items overlapping
Overlapping of two items on the same track is now allowed so, in case the new item should cause an overlapping and upon space availability, the new item will be automatically moved to the next track or to the previous track; if both previous and next tracks should in any case suffer an overlapping, a new track will be automatically inserted on the nearest position.
|
The availability of data files inside the clipboard can be verified through the TracksBoard.ClipboardDataAvailable method.
In case the clipboard should contain more sound files, invoking this method would cause available sound files to be attached all in a row on the same track: for every sound file successfully added, the TracksBoardDropFile event is raised.
In case the file(s) being pasted should be of an unsupported format, the TracksBoardDropFile event would be in any case generated with the nUniqueId parameter set to -1.
The exact same behaviour can be obtained through a drag & drop operation, performed through the mouse, by "moving" items selected in Windows Explorer directly into a track of the session.
