RC - 14 Mar 2006 17:28 GMT

I want to drag rows up/down (for example, drag 3rd row to 1st row)
in JList. I setDragEnabled(true) for JList, but it doesn't work!

How do I drag rows in JList?

Thanks!

I suspect it's a bit more complicated than just doing a
setDragEnabled(true)....

Have a look at

setDragEnabled(true) allows the user to drag the selection in the list and
drop it in another component - not within the list itself.

You will have to add a mouse listener to the JList and re-arrange the items
yourself.
