10 @class wxDragImage
7c913512 11
0c1fe6e9
BP
12 This class is used when you wish to drag an object on the screen, and a
13 simple cursor is not enough.
7c913512 14
23324ae1 15 On Windows, the Win32 API is used to achieve smooth dragging. On other
0c1fe6e9 16 platforms, wxGenericDragImage is used. Applications may also prefer to use
23324ae1 17 wxGenericDragImage on Windows, too.
7c913512 18
0c1fe6e9
BP
19 @beginWxPythonOnly
20 wxPython uses wxGenericDragImage on all platforms, but uses the wxDragImage
21 name.
22 @endWxPythonOnly
7c913512 23
23324ae1 24 To use this class, when you wish to start dragging an image, create a
0c1fe6e9
BP
25 wxDragImage object and store it somewhere you can access it as the drag
26 progresses. Call BeginDrag() to start, and EndDrag() to stop the drag. To
27 move the image, initially call Show() and then Move(). If you wish to
28 update the screen contents during the drag (for example, highlight an item
29 as in the dragimag sample), first call Hide(), update the screen, call
30 Move(), and then call Show().
7c913512 31
0c1fe6e9
BP
32 You can drag within one window, or you can use full-screen dragging either
33 across the whole screen, or just restricted to one area of the screen to
34 save resources. If you want the user to drag between two windows, then you
35 will need to use full-screen dragging.
7c913512 36
0c1fe6e9
BP
37 If you wish to draw the image yourself, use wxGenericDragImage and override
38 DoDrawImage() and GetImageRect().

243 not having to redraw the updated window itself just before dragging,

246 the objects to be dragged, and leave the window itself to be updated by
247 the drag image. This can provide eerily smooth, flicker-free drag
248 behaviour.
