Description

Allow drag-drop of files directly into SEToolbox.

Need to detect the file type and act appropriately.

  • Detect .vox .vx2 files for asteroids.
  • Detect .sbc files for other content.
  • Detect 3D models, open 3D Import screen..
  • Detect image files, open image import screen.

And not throw an exception on invalid or corrupt content.

Research direction

The issue does not name files, tests, or an entry point. Start by locating SEToolbox's drag-and-drop handling and the existing 3D and image import screens, then trace how .vx2, .sbc, model, and image files are currently opened. Done means each supported type opens the appropriate workflow and invalid or corrupt content does not throw an exception.
