You can also use the drag-and-drop mechanism to import a generic file. This is done by dragging a file from your file explorer into the main view window of the Builder. If more information is needed to open the file, a specific dialog will appear to allow for this data. For example, if you drop a shape file (.shp) into the main window of the Builder, you need to specify the projection. See Figure 3.14.

| Note |
| when you drag and drop IVL files, the Builder treats the file as a prepared map. The file is opened and replaces the map currently displayed.
