The new AddEventDialog is not working for me in EG 0.5 beta 5
-Here is the error when I open it:

-The OK button is grayed out if you try to enter en Event manually
-A Description for the input field where you actually see the Event would be nice (maybe above), it looks a search field currently
-The Hint is missing that you can use also drag and drop to add events

Did you hit Enter after typing the event name?

The text in the textctrl is the event you will get. But i understand what you mean and will try to make it more visible.

I made some enhancements to the dialog (

Thank you, looks good!
I have one question though, why isn't it possible to resolve the plugins the Events come from? Or better, how can the list be populated? At the moment there is only a System and a <unknown> node.

No I didn't... How should I know that I'm supposed to hit enter?
After hitting Enter the OK button isn't greyed out any more, but I honestly didn't expect that you have to press Enter - why is that? Wouldn't it be better to activate the button whenever the Box is not empty?

That's funny, I didn't know that as well
It's cool though and worth a hint.
I was referring to the Hint in the old add event dialog, which I guess is helpful to people that are new to EventGhost:

What kind of question is that ?
Maybe, I did not understand it correctly.
However - the answer is: of course we can.
I've already used it in several plugins. As an example, I can give the
Music Bee plugin (main plugin dialog) or
Media Player Classic plugin (
Show MPC menu action).

You cannot drag and drop events into the AddEvents Dialog. you can only drag and drop them into the tree.
