TreeView Suggestion - Drag & Drop

Description

 
I would like to suggest adding drag and drop to the TreeNodes and an event fired when that happens.

Moderator comment: Additional TreeView issues can be found in other codeplex issues.

This would be useful for many projects. I was talking to a team in our organization who specifically chose not to use silverlight because no drap and drop events existed.

Who wouldn't want the D&D functionality built in?

I'm anxious for such an ability... I've spent the better part of a day trying to implement this on my own, only to be partially successful. I can't seem to get the TreeView to hold the state of the expanded nodes when it refreshes from the datasource.

I also would agree that drag and drop would be useful for treeview. I actually would kind of expect it to be there.

ok never mind, I used my mates treeview now.
It not only supports drag and drop but in the same assembly he has added a context menu so I have added right click options to my "drag and drop available" tree too.

you guys may find this useful ...

... he seems to be months ahead of you guys already and his assemblies are much smaller too ;)

This would be an excellent addition. Currently, our implementation is a bit clunky where users are having to click buttons to perform actions on selected nodes. Rather, they should be able to double click (which shouldn't just expand the node but expose the event) or drag and drop.

any ideas when this will be looked at guys ? i'm just curious because I need this functionality for a project i'm working on and a mate has already created a treeview, trouble is he is travelling round the world at the moment so I would rather use the "official" treeview for the support.

It would be cool if we could also create context menus on right clicks too, this would bring it online with more commonly known desktop application functionality.

Keep up the good work though :)

I've made the title a little more clear so people can tell at a glance what this suggestion is as well as changing it to a feature request vs. an actual bug. These suggestions have been noted!

I would definitely agree, this would be a huge plus!

Yes. I agree, This would be a very useful feature. Drag drop is something we use a lot in our products and it is disappointing that this was not included.
