    @class wxDragImage
    @wxheader{dragimag.h}

    This class is used when you wish to drag an object on the screen,
    and a simple cursor is not enough.

    On Windows, the Win32 API is used to achieve smooth dragging. On other
    platforms,
    wxGenericDragImage is used. Applications may also prefer to use
    wxGenericDragImage on Windows, too.

    @b wxPython note: wxPython uses wxGenericDragImage on all platforms, but
    uses the wxDragImage name.

    To use this class, when you wish to start dragging an image, create a
    wxDragImage
    object and store it somewhere you can access it as the drag progresses.
    Call BeginDrag to start, and EndDrag to stop the drag. To move the image,
    initially call Show and then Move. If you wish to update the screen contents
    during the drag (for example, highlight an item as in the dragimag sample),
    first call Hide,
    update the screen, call Move, and then call Show.

    You can drag within one window, or you can use full-screen dragging
    either across the whole screen, or just restricted to one area
    of the screen to save resources. If you want the user to drag between
    two windows, then you will need to use full-screen dragging.

    If you wish to draw the image yourself, use wxGenericDragImage and
    override wxDragImage::DoDrawImage and
    wxDragImage::GetImageRect.

    Please see @c samples/dragimag for an example.

            Icon or bitmap to be used as the drag image. The bitmap can

            Text used to construct a drag image.

        Start dragging the image, using the first window to capture the mouse and the
        second
        to specify the bounding area. This form is equivalent to using the first form,
        but more convenient than working out the bounding rectangle explicitly.
        You need to then call Show()
        and Move() to show the image on the screen.
        Call EndDrag() when the drag has finished.
        Note that this call automatically calls CaptureMouse.

        @param hotspot
            The location of the drag position relative to the upper-left corner
            of the image.
        @param window
            The window that captures the mouse, and within which the dragging
            is limited unless fullScreen is @true.
        @param boundingWindow
            In the second form of the function, specifies the
            area within which the drag occurs.
        @param fullScreen
            If @true, specifies that the drag will be visible over the full
            screen, or over as much of the screen as is specified by rect. Note that
        the mouse will
            still be captured in window.
        @param rect
            If non-@NULL, specifies the rectangle (in screen coordinates) that
            bounds the dragging operation. Specifying this can make the operation more
        efficient
            by cutting down on the area under consideration, and it can also make a
        visual difference
            since the drag is clipped to this area.

        The default implementation copies the window contents to the backing bitmap. A
