[RESOLVED] [2005] Simulating a Drag & Drop effect on a Shockwave Flash OCX

[Neverbirth]

As the title says, I'd like to make a drag & drop effect on a Shockwave Flash OCX (from a Listview), but it doesn't have the AllowDrop properties, nor the Drag events, so I wonder if it's really possible...

I tried doing it with the Form events, but it seems that when the cursor enters the Flash area that event isn't received, plus the Flash OCX doesn't have a MouseMove event, so I'm out of ideas on how to proceed with this one.

Any ideas?

Happy New Year to everyone on the forums!

Nobody? I've thought about making an invisible picturebox that goes front when the dragging starts, although I kind of don't like it.

I'm gonna post some request on the Adobe forums to see if they try to put support for this on future versions...

What are you trying to do, drag a file path onto the control to play it?

No, it's something more than that, the application is an editor to use along with other softwares, where some of the items to add can be created and customized at any time, and thus aren't predefined. These items are shown in a listview, and the intention for adding drag & drop support is to choose them, and drag them into the correct position.
