Did "getting started" - but nothing happens...

[Thomas]

This is probably a stupid question, but..

I thought I'd experiment with drag-and-drop, so I did as instructed in the "getting started" subject in the documentation: added AllowDrag=True to the source and AlloDrop=true to the target:

<UserControl x:Class="CreditSuisse.SDP.Client.Application.Workspace"
             xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
             xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
             xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
             xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
             xmlns:telerikDragDrop="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls.DragDrop;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls"
             mc:Ignorable="d"
>
    <Grid>
        <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
            <ColumnDefinition Width="*"/>
            <ColumnDefinition Width="*"/>
        </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
        <StackPanel Grid.Column="0" Orientation="Vertical" Background="LightBlue" VerticalAlignment="Stretch">
            <TextBlock x:Name="item1" Background="Blue" Width="75" Height="75" VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Center" telerikDragDrop:RadDragAndDropManager.AllowDrag="True" Text="qwerty"/>
        </StackPanel>
        <StackPanel Grid.Column="1" Orientation="Vertical" Background="LightGreen" VerticalAlignment="Stretch" telerikDragDrop:RadDragAndDropManager.AllowDrop="True" Drop="StackPanel_Drop">

        </StackPanel>
    </Grid>

</UserControl>

Now, my user control displays nicely, but no drag-and-drop visual cues or anything.

It seems to me that the "getting started" subject is missing the last two-thirds...?

Hi Thomas,

Thank you for the feedback. If the GettingStarted article you are referring to is the Allowing Drag and Drop article, then you are right that its content only describes the process of allowing and not implementing the DragDrop operations. However, I agree that this can be little misleading sometimes. Therefore we will revise the article as soon as possible.

However, illustration of various drag and drop scenarios you can find in the HowTo section in the documantation.

I also updated your Telerik points accordingly. Should you need more info or have additional comments on the matter, please let us know.

All the best,
Tina Stancheva
