Drag/Drop:Allow Dropping Property

Short Name: Allow Dropping

Installed With: Base Package

Class: TreeControl Properties

If TRUE, LabVIEW automatically accepts drops containing the LV_TREE_TAG, LV_TEXT, or LV_TREE_ITEMS data types. The LV_TREE_TAG data type is a string that represents the tag from which you drag. The LV_TEXT data type is of type string. The LV_TREE_ITEMS data type is an array of a cluster containing an array of strings, from left to right, in the item you are dragging, an integer representing the glyph index associated with the item from which you are dragging data, and an integer representing the indent level of the item from which you are dragging.

Use the Control events for more control over how users drag items within controls.

This property is similar to the Allow Dropping item on the shortcut menu of a tree control.
