 Drag and Drop Upload Widget Implementation

OutSystems UI

We would like to request the implementation of a Drag and Drop File Upload widget within the OutSystems platform. This feature would significantly improve the user experience by allowing users to easily drag files from their local system and drop them into a designated area for upload. It should support multiple file types and sizes, offer visual feedback during the upload process, and integrate smoothly with existing workflows. Adding this functionality would modernize the platform and align it with current best practices for user interface design

Aren't there already enough Forge components available to do the job, both in ODC and O11.
This one in O11 is there for a long time and used a lot:

But really there are so many, I don't think OutSystems will add it to OutSystems UI.

For drag & drop file upload in ODC, I recently used the “Droppable File Upload” component by Product League.

It’s simple and very useful. Implementation is straightforward, just add your content to the DropZone, create an event, and add your custom logic.

Quick to set up and worth trying.
