I'm trying to implement a drag and drop window for users to upload images in the app.

I see that it was implemented in 1.4 and there is a working example for showing a list of dragged files

https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform/issues/3294

I'm simply trying to alter this example to work with images. The interface says theres 3 types, FilesList, Images, Text but no matter what I drag into the box it's returning as FileList

androidx.compose.ui.DragDataFilesListImpl@5e186db7

So changing the check from if (dragData is DragData.FilesList) to if (dragData is DragData.Image) is always false even if I drag an image in?

I don't see any way to alter this behaviour either? Anyone know why this sample is considering every input as a FileList and how do I get it to return Image if I actually drag an image in.

And I know I can read the image (if I decide its an image) from the file path I get back, but I'd really just like this to work as its seemingly described as possible without having to implement that.

The more I think and look at this, the more it seems like this is actually the intended behaviour if it's dragged from outside the app into the app. In the meantime I do have it working by taking the path and working with it myself.
