Drag and Drop

Within a Tree

Set the allowDragging property to true to allow users to drag nodes to new positions within the TreeView.

When dragging is allowed, users may drag any node to any position within the tree. Specifically, nodes can be dragged to a position above, below, or into (as a child of) other nodes.

You can customize this behavior by handling the TreeView drag/drop events:

  • dragStart: Occurs when a drag/drop operation is about to start. You may examine the node about to be dragged and cancel the operation by setting the event's cancel parameter to true.
  • dragOver: Occurs while the user drags the node over other nodes on the tree. You may examine the current target node and drop position and prevent the drop or modify its location setting the event's cancel and position parameters.
  • drop: Occurs when the user drops the node into its new location. You may examine the current target node and drop position and prevent the drop or modify its location setting the event's cancel and position parameters.
  • dragEnd: Occurs after the drag/drop operation is finished, even if it was canceled and the source node was not moved.

For more information on usage of these events, see the Drag and Drop demo.

TreeView

HTML
<div id="theTree"></div>
Javascript
onload = function() {

	// create the tree
   var tree = new wjNav.TreeView('#theTree', {
  	      itemsSource: getData(),
		   displayMemberPath: 'header',
           childItemsPath: 'items',
           showCheckboxes: true,
           imageMemberPath: 'img',
           allowDragging: true       
	});
    
   // get the tree data
   function getData() {
	  var imgUrl = 'https://demos.wijmo.com/5/PureJS/TreeViewIntro/TreeViewIntro/resources/';
		return [
    	{ header: 'Electronics', img: imgUrl + 'electronics.png', items: [
		     { header: 'Trimmers/Shavers' },
             { header: 'Tablets' },
             { header: 'Phones', img: imgUrl + 'phones.png', items: [
			     { header: 'Apple' },
                 { header: 'Motorola', newItem: true },
                 { header: 'Nokia' },
                 { header: 'Samsung' }]
		     },
            { header: 'Speakers', newItem: true },
            { header: 'Monitors' }]
	  },
      { header: 'Toys', img: imgUrl + '/toys.png', items: [
      	   { header: 'Shopkins' },
           { header: 'Train Sets' },
           { header: 'Science Kit', newItem: true },
           { header: 'Play-Doh' },
           { header: 'Crayola' } ]
	  },
	  { header: 'Home', img: imgUrl + 'home.png', items: [
      	  { header: 'Coffeee Maker' },
          { header: 'Breadmaker', newItem: true },
          { header: 'Solar Panel', newItem: true },
          { header: 'Work Table' },
          { header: 'Propane Grill' }]
	   }
	   ];
	}
}

Between trees

Setting the allowDrag property to true allows users to drag and drop nodes within the same TreeView.

To allow dragging and dropping nodes between different TreeView controls, you must handle the dragOver event and set the cancel parameter to true if the operation is invalid, or to false if it is valid.
