ASPxClientTreeListEndDragNodeEventArgs.targetElement Property

Gets the target element.

Declaration

targetElement: any

Property Value

Type Description
any

An object that represents the target element to which the dragged node has been dropped.

Example

This example demonstrates how to implement node dragging outside the ASPxTreeList. The ASPxClientTreeList.StartDragNode client event is handled to add the cart image to the list of target elements, so that an end-user can drag nodes to the cart. If a node has been dropped to the cart, the cart image changes (in the ASPxClientTreeList.EndDragNode client event handler) and the node is painted red (using the server ASPxTreeList.HtmlRowPrepared event).

The image below shows the result:
