Hi Björn,

we've tried to apply the drag and drop functionality to a combo field within a flex grid.
It's seems that a combo field could only be used as a "receiver-object" (drop) and not as a "sender" (drag).

Could you please check.

Thank's
Peter

Hi,

we checked, and believe it works perfectly ;-)

Well, there is one thing to pay attention to: if the dragsend contains the acutal value of the selected combobox then you need to flush the combobox when the user changed it so that the dragsend is rebuilt on server side. This means: in the from-combobox, set "flush" to "true".

If you do not want to flush (roundtrip opimitzation) then you can set as dragsend something like "combofrom:dummy", and as doprereceive "combofrom". In the event processing on server side you then need to pick the combofrom-value and tranfer it to the other combobox. Remember: all set-property-operations are executed before the actionListener processing, so first the fromcombobox's value is set, and then the drop processing is ececuted.

...next update (mo) will contain examples showing the usage with fields and comboboxes....
