drag and drop effects [message #741689]

I've been looking at the TableDragSourceEffect...and TableDropTargetEffect, and I would like to change/customize the visuals associated with Table widget drag and drop (e.g. so that selection, insertion highlighting appears slightly differently during drag and drop). Are there examples (in Eclipse or elsewhere) of extending (or replacing) the Table drag and drop effects? Is there any further documentation available on doing this?

Thanksinadvance,

Scott

Hi,

You can customize the image shown while the dragging from a Table, see the javadoc of TableDragSourceEffect. You can also provide your own drag under effect for a Table, see javadoc of TableDropTargetEffect.
I didn't find any article or example of this, but here is an article on Drag and Drop in SWT --> http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-SWT-DND/DND-in-SWT.html
