Silverlight 2 - Drag and Drop Part 2 of 2

01.13.2009

This is part 2 of the drag and drop videos, this is where I show a different method than the one provided by silverlight.net. Basically I found the concept of capture mouse technique to be too limiting in my applications and this method was how I was able to do drag and drop in my application where during dragging of an object I needed to interact with other items. Hope this helps, and more videos are coming.

Thanks for the great example. However, there is one disadvantag to the mouse capture technologie: You can drop objects to coordinates outside the visible range (outside the browser window). Is tthere any chance to achieve this without the mouse capture technologie ? Thanks and regards, Thomas
