[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Re: Drag and drop woes

[David Huebel <davidhuebel@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Duong,

Thank you for the suggestions.  Sorry for the bogus report.  I used this
wonderful program to figure out that I wasn't actually setting the data
after all:

I find the drag effect provided by Eclipse to be most confusing.  It appears
to use a graphical copy of the currently displayed part of the current
selection.  Not only did it show me dragging the current selection when in
fact the drag data was null, but when I select several screenfuls of data
in my TableViewer, it shows me dragging just the few rows that are on the
screen when I initiate the drag.  It could be very confusing to users who
go through many screenfuls of data ctrl-clicking the rows they want, and
then see only one row being dragged.  Is there any way to turn this effect
off?
