Tom,

Sorry replying so late.

I can't help with this, but I'm also interested in a solution.

My uneducated guess is that it could (only) be done currently
by handcoding it, and it would require good knowledge of both
the TreeList and fxruby's DND.

My impression is that f(ox|xruby) doesn't know that intra-app
DND is a simpler special case. I think it's all one paradigm.

It seems to me it should be possible to design a drop-in
replacement for the tree list that enabled the manual moving
of items.

In fact (waves checkbook), I'd donate $100 to anyone who could
do that for me.

Ha, this is in the spirit of rentacoder.com, ever seen that site?
:)


Thanks,
Hal
