Change DragVisual Template in OnGiveFeedback event

[Konstantin]

Hello!
I want to change DrageVisual Template in OnGiveFeedback event instead of set e.SetCursor(Cursors.Cross); Is it possible?

I am setting DragVisual like this

        
private void OnDragInitialize(object sender, DragInitializeEventArgs e)
        {
           
                e.DragVisual =new ContentControl { Name = "DragVisual", ContentTemplate = 
                this.AssociatedObject.Resources["DraggedItemTemplate"] as DataTemplate, DataContext = items.Count() };
                e.DragVisualOffset = e.RelativeStartPoint;
                e.AllowedEffects = DragDropEffects.All;          
                e.Handled = true;
                
            }
        }

And then set cursor type in this method

        private void OnGiveFeedback(object sender, Telerik.Windows.DragDrop.GiveFeedbackEventArgs e)
        {            
            if (e.Effects == DragDropEffects.Move)
            {
                e.UseDefaultCursors = false;
                e.SetCursor(Cursors.Arrow);
            }
            else if (e.Effects == DragDropEffects.None)
            {                
                e.UseDefaultCursors = false;
                e.SetCursor(Cursors.Cross);
            }
            else
            {
                e.UseDefaultCursors = true;
            }
            e.Handled = true;
        }

Hello Konstantin,

The drag visual element in the WPF drag/drop lifecycle can be set only in the start of the drag operation. With DragDropManger, this means the DragInitialize event. However, you can still achieve your requirement. To do so, you can assign an element as the DragVisual on DragInitialize and then, on GiveFeedback or DragOver, replace its Content, Template, ContentTemplate or any other property related to its appearance.

private ContentControl dragVisual;

private void OnDragInitialize(object sender, DragInitializeEventArgs e)
{
   
	this.dragVisual = new ContentControl { Name = "DragVisual" };
	e.DragVisual = this.dragVisual;
	// other code here
}

private void OnGiveFeedback(object sender, Telerik.Windows.DragDrop.GiveFeedbackEventArgs e)
{            
	// other code here
	this.dragVisual.Content = newContent;
}

I hope that helps.
