Can you share a code sample? Without taking a look at what you are doing. we could be just shooting blindly at what the problem is. First thing is first - are you removing the child from its present container and then re-adding it to the new target? The drag manager doesn't by default handle those kinds of things.

I have a list of things displayed in a Tree. You can drag one of them, and drop it in a Container. The Container is in charge of creating what the dragged object specifies, generally an UIComponent. If the object is dropped inside a Container, it succesfully sets the right parent for the object. Once the component is created, it can still be dragged around. The problem is, once i've created the object and the parent has been set, if the object is dropped on other Container the parent property doesn't change, it's always dropped on the Container it was initially dropped. Every Container object has dragEnter and dragDrop handlers. The drag & drop is done using the DragManager. Why can't I change parents on drag & drop?
