Hi Jacque,

Sorry, I'm coming a bit late...
I have done such a thing in a project where the user can drag and drop images, movies, sounds and texts from a palette that displays their images in order to build a multimedia document. So between two stacks. I had a specific stack for this purpose displaying an image created on-the-fly by taking a snapshot. This tiny stack was shown at mouseDown, covering exactly the actual image in the palette and then the user could drag it where he/she wanted. A pending message told me where the mouseUp occurred and I acted accordingly. I used this method since I wanted the stack to move smoothly to its starting position if it was not in a "right" place and this feature made the job much more tricky :-) As far as I remember, a lot of code, some focus and cross-platform issues and so on, but a fine result :-)

Best Regards from Paris,

Eric Chatonet.

PS. If you are interested in more details, write me off list.

I have a list field that operates like an index; clicking on a line causes the stack to display content based on the text of the line.

I also need the field to support drag and drop, so that users can create their own lists by dragging lines from the index into a different field in a substack.

I tried setting the dragData on a mousedown in the index field, but even if I pass mouseDown, the index behaviors no longer function. The field does not recognize "mouseup" or "selectionchanged" and nothing happens. Actually, when I try dragging a line, the selection changes to whatever line the pointer is over. Does anyone have a trick for making a list field behave in two different ways -- that is, normal line selection as well as supporting dragging lines to another field?
