Disable drag&drop in solution explorer

Is there a way to disable the drag&drop functionality for Solution Explorer? Why would you ask? I'm using an wacom pen tablet for quite some years and I love it. But when you use it in solution explorer in combination with a source control like TFS or AnkhSvn it's a disaster when you accidentally move a file into an different directory.

I currently set visual studio to prompt when files are wanted to check out, but when a solution/project file already is checked out then the above problems still exist.

How do I turn off drag on my photos?

One way to disable dragging an image from an HTML page is to set the ondragstart property of an image element to a function that returns false . We can write: const img = document. querySelector('img') img.

There is a plugin to Visual Studio 2010 that will prompt you drag & drop files in Solution Explorer: http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/d491911d-97f3-4cf6-87b0-6a2882120acf

Sadly, turning off the drag and drop function in the Sollution Explorer is not possible.

Edit: The third post (by a Microsoft employee) in this Microsoft Forum thread confirms this.

Edit: Judging from this entry on Microsoft connect it also looks like this is something they have no intention of improving.
