Hi Eliot,
Indeed this is a tricky thing to do but we will discuss it and try to
find a more intuitive solution for the DnD behaviour.
Regards,

I think there's a lot more that could be done here. I'm used to
Arbortext Editor's tree view, which is where I often did most of my
editing, using the tags-off view essentially as a preview of what I
was editing in the tree view. That's not possible with the OxygenXML
tree view.
However, the Arbortext tree view did let you move things around
unambiguously by giving you different insertion point indicators
depending on precisely where you move your cursor. I'm sure this is
tricky UI stuff to implement but that's what I was looking for.
For example, if I drag to after an element I'd like it to default to
moving to the end of that element's content but if I drag a bit to
left, for example, it moves the insertion point to after the element,
then after that element's parent, and so on.
I would never have intuitively thought to just drop my selection onto
an element and have it go someplace--I was looking for an explicit
insertion point indicator.
Cheers,
Eliot
