Object: TextDropContext

Object: TextDropContext

The TextDropContext object provides information about the text into which you dragged and dropped an object. Do not set the DoProceed property to TRUE if you change the number of curves in the associated event or if you execute similar operations.

Note  To test the example script, you must first save the script and register the script as a user command in the dialog box that opens when you select Settings»Extensions»User Commands.

The following example executes the MyOnDropTextEvent user command when channels are dragged and dropped onto a text. The user command displays the names of the channels that you dragged onto an object. The user command also displays information about the objects you dragged into the channels. The user command receives two parameters. The first parameter corresponds to a TextDropContext object and provides information about the text onto which you dragged and dropped an object. The second parameter corresponds to a DropInformation object and provides information about the object which you dragged and dropped onto another object:

Call AddUserCommandToEvent("Report.Events.OnDropText", "MyOnDropTextEvent")

Sub MyOnDropTextEvent(Context, DropContext)
  Dim oMyDropElement, sOutput, oMyText
  sOutput = "Names of dropped channels:"
  For Each oMyDropElement in DropContext.DiademElements
    sOutput = sOutput & VBCrLf & oMyDropElement.Name
  Next
  Call MsgBox(sOutput)
  Set oMyText = Context.Text
  Call MsgBox(Context.Sheet.Name & VBCrLf & oMyText.Name & VBCrLf & oMyText.Text)
  Context.DoProceed = TRUE
End Sub
