This is from the thread 'Re: dragASprite / Modified Filer' description
on comp.sys.acorn I have posted an article to comp.sys.acorn to suggest
the discussion is moved over to comp.sys.acorn.tech so that those who can
only read this group will be able to join in.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok, I have been thinking about implementing the multiple dragging in the 
Filer. One problem or dilema I have come across is that when you select an
icon it gets inverted so would you drag an inverted icon? I think it would
look a little silly if you dragged a normal icon leaving an inverted icon
behind. In fact maybe it will look silly altogether.

Anyone got a good edge algorithm so that a rotating dash could be drawn around
the icons ala mac?
