    Hi,

    I'd like to get an event whenever the user cancels a dragdrop operation (e.g. presses the escape key or just releases the mouse button). It seems like DragStatus.DragCancel is the status ... but I never get it from any event handler!?

    I'm using the internal build 2009_2_904

    Thank you

    Hello Jens,

    You should handle the DragInfo event - it is thrown when the user cancels the drag/drop operation.

    Hi, I need to catch the escape key event, or the "cancellation" event raised by pressing the escape key. The problem is that when I press escape, the DropInfo event is fired and and the DragStatus is DropImpossible, not DropCancel. That status is set when I drag over a not allowed element, so I can't distinguish when the event is caused by the escape key or by anything else.

    1.How could I handle it?
    2.Can I disable the escape key?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Alejandro,

    You can get whether the drag is being cancelled by checking for DragCancel status in DragInfo handler.
    About the esc key - unfortunately the is no option to disable this behavior.

    Kind regards,
