Instant Actions
With Instant Actions you can instantly perform operations on the dragged content, without dropping the content first onto the shelf. While dragging, simply hover over the Instant Action button in the shelf and drop the files onto the action which you want to invoke (e.g. AirDrop or Messages).
Customizing Instant Actions
The shelf shows 4 actions which can be performed. By default, these are AirDrop, Messages, Mail and Create Dropover Link.
To assign different actions, head to the Instant Actions tab in Dropover’s preferences. From there, simply click on it and select a different action from the popover list which appears next to the icon.
