Drag and drop inside the RadGridView

[Paul]

I'm only looking for suggestions here, or any similar example should someone have one.

I have a RadGridView with a row template.  It has 14 columns.  The data template puts an image in one of the 14 columns.  The user needs to be able to click and drag this image to another column.  I'm assuming that I need to add drag events to the image in the datatemplate.  What would be needed for the grid?  

Again, this is a vague question, so I'm just looking for suggestions, or ideas on where to head with it.

Hi Paul,

In order to achieve the desired behavior the following steps are required:

 - Add RadDragAndDropManager.AllowDrag/RadDragAndDropManager.AllowDrop to the Image within the data template

 - Add Drag/Drop Query/Info events to perform DragDrop operation.

- Use the ImageSource or URI for transfaring the information about the image being dragged (stored in e.Options.Payload).

If you unfamiliar with the RadDragAndDropManager infrastructure I can recommend check these articles:
