Can "IsDropAllowed" be changed into three bools?

[Rob]

Hello,

Can the "IsDropAllowed" property be changed to represent the three drop positions? For example "IsDropBeforeAllowed", "IsDropAfterAllowed", and "IsDropInsideAllowed"  This would allow me to container bind the properties and handle a significant amount of business logic via binding instead of in code...

For example, if I have a tree representing an org structure chart that contains departments/sudepartments like "Finance" and "Human Resources" and positions like "CEO" and "Sales Rep"...  This tree could be rearranged via drag'n'drop but we would like to restrict dropping inside of a position while not stopping dropping before or after a position...

My binding could look like this...

<telerik:HierarchicalDataTemplate x:Key="itDepartment" ItemsSource="{Binding Children}" ItemTemplateSelector="{StaticResource its}">
   <telerik:ContainerBinding.ContainerBindings>
      <telerik:ContainerBindingCollection>
         <telerik:ContainerBinding PropertyName="IsDropInsideAllowed" Binding="{Binding xxx, FallbackValue=true}" />
         <telerik:ContainerBinding PropertyName="IsDropBeforeAllowed" Binding="{Binding xxx, FallbackValue=true}" />
         <telerik:ContainerBinding PropertyName="IsDropAfterAllowed" Binding="{Binding xxx, FallbackValue=true}" " />
      </telerik:ContainerBindingCollection>
   </telerik:ContainerBinding.ContainerBindings>
   <TextBlock Text="{Binding ElementName}" />
</telerik:HierarchicalDataTemplate>

<telerik:HierarchicalDataTemplate x:Key="itPosition" ItemsSource="{Binding Children}" ItemTemplateSelector="{StaticResource its}">
   <telerik:ContainerBinding.ContainerBindings>
      <telerik:ContainerBindingCollection>
         <telerik:ContainerBinding PropertyName="IsDropInsideAllowed" Binding="{Binding xxx, FallbackValue=false}" />
         <telerik:ContainerBinding PropertyName="IsDropBeforeAllowed" Binding="{Binding xxx, FallbackValue=true}" />
         <telerik:ContainerBinding PropertyName="IsDropAfterAllowed" Binding="{Binding xxx, FallbackValue=true}" " />
      </telerik:ContainerBindingCollection>
   </telerik:ContainerBinding.ContainerBindings>
   <TextBlock Text="{Binding ElementName}" />
</telerik:HierarchicalDataTemplate>

Hi Rob,

Thank you for your feedback. I added your request as a feature request in our PITS and if the item gathers enough popularity, we will definitely consider implementing it.

I also updated your Telerik account accordingly.
