I think he means dragging text from another text application(i.e. gedit) and dropping on his application to the Tmemo.

That's exactly what I did. Just select some text in gedit then drag-drop it to a memo. The lazarus application thinks you're dropping files, this is why my solution works(see above).

Hi !

TForm1.FormDropFiles does not work. Dropping does not clear previous content.
As well as  Memo.SelectAll does not do it.

So it seems that mouse wheel button is the only way. (linux/gtk2)

It works for me on Linux mint. I can make a video if you like. What is your system?

OH1KH:
Fedora26/LXDE

balazsszekely:
Unfortunately I don't have Fedora so I cannot test. I have one more question though. Does Form1 FormDropFiles triggered when you drag-drop something over the memo?
