This tiddler discusses the internal mechanisms that are used to implement drag and drop features in ~TiddlyWiki. See [[Drag and Drop]] for a general description of the features.

~TiddlyWiki uses the [[standard HTML 5 drag and drop APIs|https://www.w3.org/TR/2010/WD-html5-20101019/dnd.html]]. However, this is an area that is rightly notorious for cross-browser compatibility problems. Therefore, some features that you might expect to work won't necessarily work in all browsers.

The following widgets are concerned with drag and drop features:
|
|
|
|
* The DraggableWidget creates a draggable element that represents one or more tiddlers for dragging
|
|
** The ButtonWidget and LinkWidget incorporate the functionality of the DraggableWidget
|
|
* The DroppableWidget creates an area into which tiddlers can be dragged to trigger customisable actions
|
|
* The DropzoneWidget handles importing external tiddlers from files or by drag and drop from another browser window
|
|
|
|
The general sequence of a drag and drop operation is as follows:
|
|
|
|
# The user clicks down and drags the pointer on a draggable element such as the DraggableWidget, ButtonWidget or LinkWidget
|
|
# The draggable element moves with the mouse pointer until the click is released
|
|
# Moving the pointer over droppable elements such as the DroppableWidget displays a highlight indicating that the item can be dropped
|
|
# The configured actions are performed if the drag ends on a droppable element
