## Summary - Allow placeable create items (transforms/actions) to be **click-dragged** from the context dialog onto the pipeline or workflow canvas (fixes #3111). - **Hop GUI (native):** ghost icon follows the pointer after the dialog closes; place on mouse-up (hop-split supported); Esc / drop outside cancels. - **Hop Web:** HTML5/SWT drag-and-drop from the dialog onto the canvas, with display→canvas coordinate conversion for correct placement. - Plain **click** placement is unchanged; **ALT-Click** favorites still work. Tooltip and user docs updated with the shortcuts. ## Test plan - [ ] **Native Hop GUI — pipeline:** open context dialog → click-drag a transform onto the canvas; icon follows pointer; release places it; hop-split when dropped on a hop. - [ ] **Native Hop GUI — workflow:** same for actions. - [ ] **Click** (no drag) still places at the original canvas click location; **Ctrl-click** still opens the editor. - [ ] **ALT-Click** toggles favorites without closing the dialog; tooltip shows favorites + click-drag hint. - [ ] **Hop Web:** drag from context dialog onto pipeline/workflow canvas; drop position matches cursor; cancel by releasing outside the canvas. - [ ] Esc cancels an in-progress native placement drag and removes the ghost icon. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
