Thanks but this is exactly what I tried before writing this question. I was not able to actually take a node and make it a child of another node. The only exception to this is when the target node already has children and that the children are already visible in the tree. If the target node is close or has no children ... it's impossible ... at least for me :-)

I have used Tree DnD to rearrange xml regularly, though not recently. I wil look for a simple example. Have you tried this? As I recall, it can be difficult to drop the first child node into an empty parent.

So, here it is: I have a Flex Tree component in which I want to re-parent a node using drag & drop. Basically, I want to be able to take a node, drag it on top of another node and that the dragged node be added as a child. The standard Flex Tree will not allow this (unless I don't know how to set it up) and I didn't find any open source component on the net. Does any one have or has seen such a tree? Thanks!
