    What/where is this 'green bull eye' :-)

    I used the '+' icon in the toolbar 
    and 'right click' 'add list...'

    Yes, I think SqueakMap has a icon with
    2 concentric circles, is it green.

    I have only 1 copy of StarBrowser4.sar on disk,
    my 3.4 image is clean (latest update: #5138)

    Cheers,

    PhiHo.

Do you mean that you made an ExtentionalClassification (green bulls 
eye), or that you used the menu to add the SqueakMap categories list?

The only things that receive drops (right now) are extentional 
categories (ones you define; they have the green bulls-eye icon).

If you made an extentional category and it wouldn't receive drops, 
there is a problem.

This works for me in a virgin 3.4 image. Did you load this over a 
pre-existing StarBrowser? I don't know if that'll cause problems or 
not.

In the future:
Classes should respond to drops like in the regular browsers; I 
haven't added it yet though (look at ItemDropReceiver). As should 
message categories and class categories.
