drag 'n' drop reordering

[André.Bisseret]

Hi Josh,
Drawn from an HyperCard stack I developed a long time ago (but that I  
am still using).
You could try this :
---------------------------------
on mouseWithin
   moveOption
   pass mouseWithin
end mouseWithin

on MoveOption
   if  "card button" is not in the target then exit MoveOption -- In HC  
I had card and bg btns
   if the shiftKey is down and the optionKey is down then -- I don't  
remember why I used two keys :-)
       repeat until the shiftKey is up or the optionKey is up --
      set loc of the target to the mouseLoc --
       end repeat
    end if
end moveOption
--------------------------------
No sure it corresponds to your problem, but could be an idea ?

Best regards from Grenoble
André
