TDBCheckBox.OnDragDrop Event

Occurs when the user drops an object being dragged.

Pascal

property OnDragDrop: TDragDropEvent;

C++

__property TDragDropEvent OnDragDrop;

Description

Use the OnDragDrop event handler to specify what happens when the user drops an object. The Source parameter of the OnDragDrop event is the object being dropped, and the Sender is the control the object is being dropped on. The X and Y parameters are the coordinates of the mouse positioned over the control.

C++ Examples:

/*
This code comes from an application that contains a list box
and three labels, each with a different font and color.  The
DragMode property for each of the labels is dmAutomatic.
The user can select a label and drag it to a list box and
drop it. When the label is dropped, the items in the list
box assume the color and font of the dropped label.
*/

// This OnDragOver event handler permits the list box to
// accept a dropped label:
void __fastcall TForm1::ListBox1DragOver(TObject *Sender, TObject *Source, int X, int Y, TDragState State, bool &Accept)
{
   Accept = Source->ClassNameIs("TLabel");
}

/*
This OnDragDrop event handler implements the drop behavior.
*/ 
void __fastcall TForm1::ListBox1DragDrop(TObject *Sender, TObject *Source, int X, int Y)
{
  if (Sender->ClassNameIs("TListBox") && Source->ClassNameIs("TLabel"))
  {
    TListBox *DestList = (TListBox *)Sender;
    DestList->Font = ((TLabel *)Source)->Font;
    DestList->Color = ((TLabel *)Source)->Color;
    DestList->DoubleBuffered = true;
    DestList->Color = clWindow;
  }
}

void __fastcall TForm1::FormCreate(TObject *Sender)
{
  ListBox1->Items->Add("Not");
  ListBox1->Items->Add("In");
  ListBox1->Items->Add("Alphabetical");
  ListBox1->Items->Add("Order");

}

Delphi Examples:

Copy Code

{
This code is an OnDragOver event handler that won't allow a
label control to be dropped on a panel control and stops the
dragging of the label as soon as the user drags the label
onto the panel:
Note: Set the label's DragMode property to dmAutomatic.
}
procedure TForm1.FormDragDrop(Sender, Source: TObject; X, Y: Integer);
begin
  TForm1(Source).Left := X;
  TForm1(Source).Top := Y;
end;

procedure TForm1.FormDragOver(Sender, Source: TObject; X, Y: Integer;
  State: TDragState; var Accept: Boolean);
begin
  Accept := Source is TLabel;
end;

procedure TForm1.Panel1DragOver(Sender, Source: TObject; X, Y: Integer;
  State: TDragState; var Accept: Boolean);
begin
  Accept := False;
  if (Source is TLabel) and (State = dsDragEnter) then
    (Source as TLabel).EndDrag(False);
