Widget Drag and Drop

A generic drag and drop interface is implemented for sending document, entities, and associations between widgets. To accept these things a widget only needs to implement an event handler for the widgetDrop event on WidgetModule

Code Block

<components:WidgetModule xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
    xmlns:components="com.ikanow.infinit.e.widget.library.components.*"
    xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
    xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" 
    implements="com.ikanow.infinit.e.widget.library.widget.IWidget"
    widgetDrop="widgetmodule1_widgetDropHandler(event)">
	
	<fx:Script>
        <![CDATA[
			import com.ikanow.infinit.e.widget.library.events.WidgetDropEvent;

			protected function widgetmodule1_widgetDropHandler(event:WidgetDropEvent):void
            {                
                trace("Ents: " + event.entities.length);
                trace("Assocs: " + event.associations.length);
                trace("Docs: " + event.documents.length);                    
            }
		]]>
    </fx:Script>
</components:WidgetModule>

The WidgetDropEvent object holds 3 anonymous arrays: entities,associations,documents, any/all of these may have data in them.

To send dragged items to another widget, dispatch an drag event with the dataformat using WidgetDragUtil.WIDGET_DRAG_FORMAT:

Code Block

protected function widgetheaderdragimage1_mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
	var docs:Array = new Array();
	for each ( var doc:Object in docList.selectedItems )
	{                    
		docs.push(doc);
	}                
	var dragObject:WidgetDragObject = new WidgetDragObject();
	dragObject.documents = new ArrayCollection(docs);                
	var ds:DragSource = new DragSource();
	ds.addData(dragObject, WidgetDragUtil.WIDGET_DRAG_FORMAT );           
	DragManager.doDrag(dragImage, ds, event);
}

A widget header icon has been supplied in the widget library to allow uniformity between widgets, this icon can be added to a widget by adding it to the header block on all widgets (and implement the mousedown handler as shown above, supplying your specific data):

Code Block

<components:WidgetHeaderDragImage id="dragImage" paddingLeft="5" mouseDown="widgetheaderdragimage1_mouseDownHandler(event)" toolTip="Drag this to another widget/the query bar to send selected documents" />

When added to a widget it will look like:
