Detailed Description

The object cannot be instantiated and it is passed as parameter to ViewItems::dragUpdated attached signal. Developer can decide whether to accept or restrict the dragging event based on the input provided by this event.

The direction of the drag can be found via the status property and the source and destination the drag can be applied via from and to properties. The allowed directions can be configured through minimumIndex and maximumIndex properties, and the event acceptance through accept property. If the event is not accepted, the drag action will be considered as cancelled.
