Re: [flexcoders] Flex 3 Tree - Moving Nodes

[Martyn Bowis]

Another alternative is to have the node you are dragging over open after two seconds and display a placeholder child.  If you want to make it a sibling, that will be your first option before the node has time to open.  If you want it to be a child, wait a couple of seconds whilst the node opens to display any current children (and if not a placeholder child that you dynamically create for that purpose) Cheers, Martyn Alan Rother wrote: Yeah, I tried something similar, but since all of my nodes are essentially the same (all pages) and can all be a parent or a child (leaf or branch as it were) but the problem I'm running into is how do I discriminate between intent, in other words how do I know if the user wanted to move the page between two pages on the same level (re-ordering) or if they wanted to move the page to be the child of the page is was dropped onto. That ExtJS example seems to be doing what I want (albeit, you cant drag a file to another file, only folders) I have to believe Flex can do this as well, I really don't want to do it in Ext... =] -- Alan Rother Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion MX 7 Developer Manager, Phoenix Cold Fusion User Group, AZCFUG.org __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 3922 (20090309) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com -- ============================ Dr Martyn Bowis (PhD Engineering) Director Net Design Ltd New Zealand www.netdesign.co.nz Mob: +64 21 932626 Skype: mbowis MSN: mbowis @ msn.com Truth brings Freedom ============================ The content of this email is confidential.
