The ondrop event activates when the mouse is released during a drag and drop operation and the element is dropped. If the Drag and Drop Response screen-level properties are defined, the screen will be submitted automatically. Information about the drag and drop operation is provided using the global pui.dragDropInfo object, which will contain the following properties:
- dd element - reference to the drag and drop element
- dd element id - the id of the drag and drop element
- dd record number - the record number of the subfile record being dragged and dropped when the operation is being performed on a grid element
- proxy - reference to the drag and drop proxy element; this will be the same as dd element if the "use proxy" property is not set
- target element - reference to the drop target element
- target element id - the id of the drop target element
- target record number - the record number position of where the element was dopped when the target element is a grid
- event - the browser's event object; this allows you to retrieve information such as mouse position
- text - text description of the event
Example:
Increase the count of deleted items shown on the screen when an object is dropped into the trash can.
ondrop: if (pui.dragDropInfo["target element id"] == "Trash") changeElementValue("DeletedItems", Number(get("DeletedItems")) + 1);
