Custom DND Drop Action?

Administrator

How do I accept a dropped Morph, but do something other than the default add-as-submorph? I want to drop a Morph into a TextMorph and have it be automatically converted into a TextAnchor, but instead it becomes a submorph and takes over all available space so the contents of the TextMorph can not be changed. Thanks.

Cheers,
Sean

Never mind. I found #handleDropMorph:, which I missed the first time because it is not in the dropping/grabbing protocol, but is instead in events-processing. Maybe it should be moved?

Thanks! You saved me a search. :)

This is maybe a broader question (I personally struggle with it quite a bit)... since at least from my naive view it should belong to both (and protocols don't work like tags).

I agree. Maybe that will be Pharo's next fun enhancement!

Ouch! #acceptDroppingMorph:event: was the message I really wanted, but it was in the 'layout' protocol! That's just mean ;)
