Encapsulates a drag item

## NAME

QIconDragItem - Encapsulates a drag item

## SYNOPSIS

`#include <qiconview.h>`

### Public Members

## DESCRIPTION

The QIconDragItem class encapsulates a drag item.

The QIconDrag class uses a list of QIconDragItems to support drag and drop operations.

In practice a QIconDragItem object (or an object of a class derived from QIconDragItem) is created for each icon view item which is dragged. Each of these QIconDragItems is stored in a QIconDrag object.

See QIconView::dragObject() for more information.

See the fileiconview/qfileiconview.cpp and iconview/simple\_dd/main.cpp examples.

See also Drag And Drop Classes.
