Dragging images from the DAM to a smartimage dialog in Touch UI

Is it possible to drag images from the asset finder to a dialog in Touch UI? It looks like not - I'm checking out this page in the Geometrixx sample /content/geometrixx-media/en/entertainment/summer-blockbuster-hits-and-misses.html

And if not, is there a recommended pattern for handling this in the new UI?

Thanks

This question was asked in past month - the answer is no - you need to switch to classic view and then drag your assets from the content finder to the component.

Sorry, I'm not finding the previous question to reference. Is this something that will be restored in the future, or is the idea that it would be a better authoring practice to upload from your machine directly to the page, rather than uploading to the DAM first? Or a better component design to just give the author a pathfield to the DAM rather than the smartimage?

I was talking to our Touch UI expert. They recommended do not attempt to code a classic UI solution (it works in Classic UI) and use in Touch UI. As pointed out in this thread - it will not work.

They said to look at the source code for image widget for touch ui dialog. This is how to perform this task in TOuch UI.
