Hi -
What I've done is put a layer (widget) in the left frame, then put an
onClick event which instantiates a copy of it to the right frame. Then they
can drag away on the right side. This also allows the user to create more
than one of the widget in the right frame. This seems to be working very
well for me, as I can also put other mouse events on it to have other
actions happen. For example, in the right frame widget, a mouse event is
added that will allow a right click to delete that specific instance of the
widget if the user decides he's clicked too many over.
This is all tied into a database which creates the icons on the left side
according to whatever data is loaded into a table. The user wants to be
able to configure these items in a certain way, that's why the dragging is
there in the right frame. I've got the dynapi2 threaded into pl/sql code
and it's dynamically rendered into an html document through a webserver. It
actually works very well, but is still a work in progress.
I'd be happy to explain more if anyone is interested.

Nope, cannot. Layers simply exist in the frame they were made in and that's
it. I would be amused to see one of these coding gods come up with a
simulation of dragging between frames by actually using a duplicate of the
layer being dragged in the target frame, but I could not imagine it working
well.

Can anyone tell me if it's possible to drag layers between frames? and some
example code would be helpful.
Thanks
