Topic: Save Text - how?

Save Text help:

Creates a new text file with dropped text

Just what is "dropped text"? I've tried dragging a text file onto the icon, pasting text, etc, but all that ever happens is my chosen folder opens and appears to be empty. I looked at the code and saw that it is supposed to ask me for a filename, but it never does...

What am I missing?

Thanks,
TomT

Re: Save Text - how?

The way you use text destinations is you drag text onto them. Like with the Save Text destination you would highlight the text in your browser or TextEdit or whatever and then hold down the left mouse button on the selection. The text should come away and you can drag it onto Dropzone.
