How do I choose which scene receives a dragged file?

Let content drops pass through a nested scene to the intended scene below it.

Before you start

Open the scene containing the nested scene areas.

Where to find it

Scene Settings > Accept Drop.

Steps

  1. Disable Accept Drop on nested scenes that should not receive the file.
  2. Enable it on the intended receiving scene and save.
  3. Drag a test file into Preview and check the scene that received it.
  4. Review the main scene setting if no nested area should receive drops.

Check the result

The intended accepting scene receives the dropped content.

Helpful information

Accept Drop does not hide a scene. With no accepting target the drop is rejected; Sources-panel Add remains available.

If something is wrong

Check overlapping nested scenes, their Accept Drop settings and supported content types.
