I have a very simple app with a List that displays a custom drag
proxy. It works just fine in Flex 2, but in Flex 3 the custom drag
proxy does not show.
I simply override the protected ListBase.dragImage getter to return
my custom drag image (I am pulling the image source out of the
currently selected row) like such:
var renderer:CustomItemRenderer =
this.indexToItemRenderer(this.selectedIndex) as CustomItemRenderer;
var actualImage:Image = renderer.thumbImage;
var dragProxy:Image = new Image();
dragProxy.source = actualImage.source;
dragProxy.setActualSize(actualImage.width, actualImage.height);
return dragProxy;
I see the custom drag proxy moving around fine in Flex 2, but nothing
is drawn in Flex 3. I do get the drag indicator (red X when not over
a drop target), and when I drop the image it does show up. It is
just that the custom drag proxy does not show while dragging.
Any ideas?
