Moving image files to workspace

In the Front end web design track, I am on Stage 3 and attempting to import the downloaded image files onto the workspace. When I drag the files onto the workspace the box pops up and says drop the files here. When I drop the files nothing happens. The files do move into the workspace. When I right click on the dark area of the workspace I do not get a menu.

What am I missing here and how do I get the img files into the workspace so I can actually use them?

Thanks

You have to drop them on the bottom left corner I think. The place where it reads 'Drop Files to Upload'. Not just anywhere in the sidebar. Is that what you did?

Alternatively you can right click anywhere in the sidebar and select Upload File, then browse to where your files are.

Paul, thanks for the quick response.

That is exactly what I was doing but it did not work. I finally got it resolved by moving from IE to Firefox. It works fine in Firefox so I guess that is where I will stay for now. I will try updatine IE later today to see if that works also.

Again, thanks for the response.

Ah ok. Looks like all versions of IE only have partial support for Drag and Drop which I think is the feature workspaces is using. http://caniuse.com/#feat=dragndrop
