dragging and dropping DWG or PDFs into Plan view

Hey all -

I used to be able to drag and drop a PDF or DWG into ArchiCAD's plan view in AC 22. This feature works in AC 21 and AC 23. Did I miss a patch note?

Hello MMontgomery,

I just tested on AC22 with a PDF and a DWG. It works ! Can you be more specific ?

Dragging a PDF or DWG from a windows folder to the ArchiCAD plan view. Expected result is that the file is placed into the plan view as a drawing object. This works in AC21 and AC23, just not in AC 22. I feel like it must be something simple I'm overlooking. All layers turned on, all renovation elements showing.
