Dragging and dropping files into Cline is a quick way to add images, code, and other files to your conversations.

<Note>Due to VS Code quirks, to drag and drop files into the Cline chat input, you need to hold `Shift` while dragging.</Note>
Dragging and dropping workspace files into Cline will automatically create a [file mention](/features/at-mentions/file-mentions). This allows you to reference the file in your conversation without needing to type out the path.
### Dragging from Finder/File Explorer
You can drag files directly from your system's file manager into Cline:

### Supported File Types
Cline supports dragging external images, pdfs, csv, excel, and other text files from your file system, as well as files from your workspace.
