"...don't think the default tree behavior is to set selectionItem on dragEnter..." No, it is not, but that is the technique all the examples I see use to determine the target tree node. But that technique changes the dragSource.
I am going to use a different UI for my needs this time.

There doesn't look like there is a documented way to do this, but maybe using some mx_internal stuff (_dropData) you can get what you want. ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tracy Spratt Sent: Monday, May 28, 2007 7:19 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [flexcoders] How to get the target node in dragEnter() I need a reference to the tree/xml node that is the current target of a drag/drop operation from within dragEnter. All of the examples I see use calculateDropIndex and set the selectedItem, but I do not want to select the tree item on dragOver. How can I tell what the drop target node is? Tracy
