Hi Roger,

I would guess that because you have started a drag operation, mouseUp
is not going to happen. Try looking for a dragEnd message instead.

Hello Sarah,

Thanks for responding. Unfortunately, dragEnd does not work. I also tried dragLeave and it works OK as a replacement for mouseUp. but it also works when in the process of dragging as you would expect. I really need to work this out as my app requires both drag and drop and mouseUp events. Any other suggestions or work-around?

Thanks very much, Roger

The only other suggestion I have is to have multiple dragDrop routines: one in the original button so if the user effectively cancels the drag by letting the mouse go on that button, you can handle it as if it was mouseUp. Then in the stack or card or destination object, have another dragDrop that actually deals with the dropped data.

Sarah
