DnD vs mouseDragged

Thread view:

- - 30 May 2005 06:43 GMT

I have a JPanel at one of the constraints (North, South, East, West) of
a BorderLayout and on mouseDragged, I relocate it to the nearest dragged
constraint.

There are many ways to skin a cat. The question is, is it better do do
it using DnD rather than determining using mouseDragged and then
relocate the constraint?

DnD is for (inter-)application data transfer, not for in-application layout
changes.
