InterDragManagerEvent

Package	mx.events
Class	public class InterDragManagerEvent
Inheritance	InterDragManagerEvent DragEvent MouseEvent Event Object

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Product Version:

Flex 3

Runtime Versions:

Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

An event sent between DragManagers that are in separate but trusted ApplicationDomains to handle the dispatching of DragEvents to the drag targets. One DragManager has a DragProxy that moves with the mouse and looks for changes to the dropTarget. It cannot directly dispatch the DragEvent to a potential target in another ApplicationDomain because code in that ApplicationDomain would not type-match on DragEvent. Instead, the DragManager dispatches a InterDragManagerEvent that the other ApplicationDomain's DragManager listens for and it marshals the DragEvent and dispatches it to the potential dropTarget.

Public Properties

	Property		Defined By
		action : String The requested action.	DragEvent
		altKey : Boolean Indicates whether the Alt key is active (true) or inactive (false).	MouseEvent
		bubbles : Boolean [read-only] Indicates whether an event is a bubbling event.	Event
		buttonDown : Boolean Indicates whether the primary mouse button is pressed (true) or not (false).	MouseEvent
		cancelable : Boolean [read-only] Indicates whether the behavior associated with the event can be prevented.	Event
		clickCount : int [read-only] Indicates whether or not the mouse down event is part of a multi-click sequence.	MouseEvent
		commandKey : Boolean Indicates whether the command key is activated (Mac only.) The value of property commandKey will have the same value as property ctrlKey on the Mac.	MouseEvent
		constructor : Object A reference to the class object or constructor function for a given object instance.	Object
		controlKey : Boolean Indicates whether the Control key is activated on Mac and whether the Ctrl key is activated on Windows or Linux.	MouseEvent
		ctrlKey : Boolean On Windows or Linux, indicates whether the Ctrl key is active (true) or inactive (false).	MouseEvent
		currentTarget : Object [read-only] The object that is actively processing the Event object with an event listener.	Event
		delta : int Indicates how many lines should be scrolled for each unit the user rotates the mouse wheel.	MouseEvent
		dragEventType : String The event type for the DragEvent to be used by the receiving DragManager when creating the marshaled DragEvent.	InterDragManagerEvent
		draggedItem : Object If the dragInitiator property contains an IAutomationObject object, this property contains the child IAutomationObject object near the mouse cursor.	DragEvent
		dragInitiator : IUIComponent The component that initiated the drag.	DragEvent
		dragSource : DragSource The DragSource object containing the data being dragged.	DragEvent
		dropTarget : DisplayObject The potential drop target in the other ApplicationDomain (which is why it is a DisplayObject and not some other class).	InterDragManagerEvent
		eventPhase : uint [read-only] The current phase in the event flow.	Event
		isRelatedObjectInaccessible : Boolean If true, the relatedObject property is set to null for reasons related to security sandboxes.	MouseEvent
		localX : Number When mouse locking is disabled, the horizontal coordinate at which the event occurred relative to the containing sprite.	MouseEvent
		localY : Number When mouse locking is disabled, the vertical coordinate at which the event occurred relative to the containing sprite.	MouseEvent
		movementX : Number When mouse locking is enabled, the change in mouse position in the X direction since the last mouse event.	MouseEvent
		movementY : Number When mouse locking is enabled, the change in mouse position in the Y direction since the last mouse event.	MouseEvent
		relatedObject : InteractiveObject A reference to a display list object that is related to the event.	MouseEvent
		shiftKey : Boolean Indicates whether the Shift key is active (true) or inactive (false).	MouseEvent
		stageX : Number [read-only] The horizontal coordinate at which the event occurred in global Stage coordinates.	MouseEvent
		stageY : Number [read-only] The vertical coordinate at which the event occurred in global Stage coordinates.	MouseEvent
		target : Object [read-only] The event target.	Event
		type : String [read-only] The type of event.	Event
