Drag and Drop

[Björnke von Gierke]

note that you can look at the script of the tools palette, if you allow the right click menu to work on ide stacks (preferences, general).

I did that once, and they fake the drag drop, by using a little stack that follows the mouse, and then checking where the mouse is over, once you release it. that is why it sometimes missfires, if you jerk the mouse away while releasing the button.

I also used the message watcher to see what happens when I drag an LC control from the LC tools palette to a card and I didn;t see any of the standard drag/drop messages.
