Dragging a File Onto Fluxbox Toolbar

Hello.

My first post in the Arch Linux forums. Let me start out by saying that I find the community great. Arch Linux is indeed an amazing distribution. It took me quite some effort to get my laptop working but I am immensely satisfied with the results I have managed to obtain.

I am using Fluxbox as a WIndow Manager and have configured it to suit my muscle memory from the Ubuntu days. One of the things that I have gotten used to from Ubuntu 12.04 is the ability to drag a file from a FIle Manager onto the taskbar and the corresponidng application to get automatically maximized so that I can drag the file onto it.

One example: Drag an image file onto an open session of LibreOffice Impress and paste it onto a slide directly.
Another: Drag a file to a GMail window tab on task bar and drop it as an attachment.
Another: Drag subtitle file onto VLC
etc.

I tried the following but could not achieve this behavior with Fluxbox.
OnToolbar Mouse1:Maximize
OnToolbar Mouse1:Click1

Can someone guide me in the right direction? Thanks in advance.

PS: Being new on the forums, I may be inadvertently breaking some forum norm, please do let me know if this is the case.
