Is there any way to access information about where in the RadTreeView an item has been dropped?

[Praveen]

I have an existing RadTreeView, and would like to allow users to drop the items at another location within the tree .  All I need to capture is the drop target details. It seems to be available within "DragEventArgs.Data" property but this seems to be inaccessible through code.  It has the type "Telerik.Windows.DragDrop.Behaviors.DragPayload.FullTrustPayload" and I can't access it.

Is there any way to access information about where in the RadTreeView an item has been dropped?

TIA

Hi Praveen,

I guess you mean the DragEventArgs of the DragDropManager's Drop event. If so, you can get the object that holds the information about the dragged treeview item from the TreeViewDragDropOptions object.

var options = DragDropPayloadManager.GetDataFromObject(e.Data, TreeViewDragDropOptions.Key) as TreeViewDragDropOptions;

The options' object also contains information about the drop target.

In addition you can take a look at the Drag and Drop help article which describes the drag/drop functionality of RadTreeView. Also, you can take a look at the DragDropPayloadManager article that describes how to extract the DragEventArgs.Data object.

I hope this information is useful.

Regards,
