Hello,

i confirm too that in firefox the external source open the file directly onto the page.

In Chrome and Internet Explorer the event.dataTransfert is not populated with the file.

Just saw this I have the same issue with Chrome see below
Issue 48

@jguyenot Did you find a solution?

Did some research and it might be related to my mistake of not implementing firefox requirements for drag and drop correctly in my demo.

Firefox needs a dragstart handler which sets some data on the dataTransfer instance of the event. See https://salesforce.stackexchange.com/a/214639

EDIT: aah well.. no it should work in my demo since its only items that are draggable by default.. research goes on.

Resolved it and released fix with rc.4. You can install with npm install ngx-drag-drop@next. It's still on a branch pending confirmation before I'll merge in master.

Failure reason was that Firefox seems to emit dragover with dataTransfer being null which the logic wasn't capable of handling. Now it is and falls back to default values.
