# Class Ext.dd.DropTarget

Package: | Ext.dd
Defined In: | DropTarget.js
Class: | DropTarget
Subclasses: | DropZone
Extends: | DDTarget

A simple class that provides the basic implementation needed to make any element a drop target that can have draggable items dropped onto it. The drop has no effect until an implementation of notifyDrop is provided.

If a group is specified, then this object will only interact with other drag drop objects in the same group (defaults to undefined). | DropTarget
| dropAllowed : String The CSS class returned to the drag source when drop is allowed (defaults to "x-dd-drop-ok"). | DropTarget
| dropNotAllowed : String The CSS class returned to the drag source when drop is not allowed (defaults to "x-dd-drop-nodrop"). | DropTarget
| overClass : String The CSS class applied to the drop target element while the drag source is over it (defaults to ""). | DropTarget

## Public Properties

Property | Defined By
--- | ---
| available : boolean The available property is false until the linked dom element is accessible. | DragDrop
| config : object Configuration attributes passed into the constructor | DragDrop
| defaultPadding : Object Provides default constraint padding to "constrainTo" elements (defaults to {left: 0, right:0, top:0, bottom:0}). | DragDrop
| groups : object An object in the format {'group1':true, 'group2':true The group defines a logical collection of DragDrop objects that are related. Instances only get events when interact... The group defines a logical collection of DragDrop objects that are related. Instances only get events when interacting with other DragDrop object in the same group. This lets us define multiple groups using a single DragDrop subclass if we want. | DragDrop
| hasOuterHandles : boolean By default, drags can only be initiated if the mousedown occurs in the region the linked element is. This is done in... By default, drags can only be initiated if the mousedown occurs in the region the linked element is. This is done in part to work around a bug in some browsers that mis-report the mousedown if the previous mouseup happened outside of the window. This property is set to true if outer handles are defined. | DragDrop
| id : String The id of the element associated with this object. This is what we refer to as the "linked element" because the size... The id of the element associated with this object. This is what we refer to as the "linked element" because the size and position of this element is used to determine when the drag and drop objects have interacted. | DragDrop
| ignoreSelf : Boolean Set to false to enable a DragDrop object to fire drag events while dragging over its own Element. Defaults to true - ... Set to false to enable a DragDrop object to fire drag events while dragging over its own Element. Defaults to true - DragDrop objects do not by default fire drag events to themselves. | DragDrop
| invalidHandleClasses : Array An Array of CSS class names for elements to be considered in valid as drag handles. | DragDrop
| invalidHandleIds : Object An object who's property names identify the IDs of elements to be considered invalid as drag handles. A non-null prop... An object who's property names identify the IDs of elements to be considered invalid as drag handles. A non-null property value identifies the ID as invalid. For example, to prevent dragging from being initiated on element ID "foo", use:
    {
        foo: true
    }
| DragDrop
| invalidHandleTypes : Object An object who's property names identify HTML tags to be considered invalid as drag handles. A non-null property value... An object who's property names identify HTML tags to be considered invalid as drag handles. A non-null property value identifies the tag as invalid. Defaults to the following value which prevents drag operations from being initiated by <a> elements:
    {
        A: "A"
    }
| DragDrop
| isTarget : boolean By default, all instances can be a drop target. This can be disabled by setting isTarget to false. | DragDrop
| maintainOffset : boolean Maintain offsets when we resetconstraints. Set to true when you want the position of the element relative to its par... Maintain offsets when we resetconstraints. Set to true when you want the position of the element relative to its parent to stay the same when the page changes | DragDrop
| moveOnly : boolean When set to true, other DD objects in cooperating DDGroups do not receive notification events when this DD object is ... When set to true, other DD objects in cooperating DDGroups do not receive notification events when this DD object is dragged over them. Defaults to false. | DragDrop
| padding : int[] An array containing the 4 padding values: [top, right, bottom, left] The padding configured for this drag and drop object for calculating the drop zone intersection with this object. | DragDrop
| primaryButtonOnly : boolean By default the drag and drop instance will only respond to the primary button click (left button for a right-handed m... By default the drag and drop instance will only respond to the primary button click (left button for a right-handed mouse). Set to true to allow drag and drop to start with any mouse click that is propogated by the browser | DragDrop

Array of pixel locations the element will snap to if we specified a vertical graduation/interval. This array is generated automatically when you define a tick interval. | DragDrop

## Public Methods

Method | Defined By
--- | ---
| DropTarget( Mixed el, Object config ) Parameters: `el` : Mixed The container element `config` : Object Returns: void | DropTarget
| addToGroup( sGroup {string} ) : void Add this instance to a group of related drag/drop objects. All instances belong to at least one group, and can belon... Add this instance to a group of related drag/drop objects. All instances belong to at least one group, and can belong to as many groups as needed. Parameters: `{string}` : sGroup the name of the group Returns: void | DragDrop
| applyConfig() : void Applies the configuration parameters that were passed into the constructor. This is supposed to happen at each level ... Applies the configuration parameters that were passed into the constructor. This is supposed to happen at each level through the inheritance chain. So a DDProxy implentation will execute apply config on DDProxy, DD, and DragDrop in order to get all of the parameters that are available in each object. Parameters: None. Returns: void | DragDrop
| constrainTo( Mixed constrainTo, [Object/Number pad], [Boolean inContent] ) : void Initializes the drag drop object's constraints to restrict movement to a certain element. Usage: var dd = new Ext.dd... Initializes the drag drop object's constraints to restrict movement to a certain element. Usage:
    var dd = new Ext.dd.DDProxy("dragDiv1", "proxytest",
                    { dragElId: "existingProxyDiv" });
     dd.startDrag = function(){
         this.constrainTo("parent-id");
     };
Or you can initalize it using the Ext.Element object:
    Ext.get("dragDiv1").initDDProxy("proxytest", {dragElId: "existingProxyDiv"}, {
         startDrag : function(){
             this.constrainTo("parent-id");
         }
     });
Parameters: `constrainTo` : Mixed The element to constrain to. `pad` : Object/Number (optional) Pad provides a way to specify "padding" of the constraints, and can be either a number for symmetrical padding (4 would be equal to {left:4, right:4, top:4, bottom:4}) or an object containing the sides to pad. For example: {right:10, bottom:10} `inContent` : Boolean (optional) Constrain the draggable in the content box of the element (inside padding and borders) Returns: void | DragDrop
| getEl() : HTMLElement Returns a reference to the linked element Returns a reference to the linked element Parameters: None. Returns: `HTMLElement` the html element | DragDrop

| notifyDrop( Ext.dd.DragSource source, Event e, Object data ) : Boolean The function a Ext.dd.DragSource calls once to notify this drop target that the dragged item has been dropped on it. ... The function a Ext.dd.DragSource calls once to notify this drop target that the dragged item has been dropped on it. This method has no default implementation and returns false, so you must provide an implementation that does something to process the drop event and returns true so that the drag source's repair action does not run. Parameters: `source` : Ext.dd.DragSource The drag source that was dragged over this drop target `e` : Event The event `data` : Object An object containing arbitrary data supplied by the drag source Returns: `Boolean` True if the drop was valid, else false | DropTarget

The function a Ext.dd.DragSource calls once to notify this drop target that the source is now over the target. This default implementation adds the CSS class specified by overClass (if any) to the drop element and returns the dropAllowed config value. This method should be overridden if drop validation is required. Parameters: `source` : Ext.dd.DragSource The drag source that was dragged over this drop target `e` : Event The event `data` : Object An object containing arbitrary data supplied by the drag source Returns: `String` status The CSS class that communicates the drop status back to the source so that the underlying {@link Ext.dd.StatusProxy} can be updated | DropTarget
| notifyOut( Ext.dd.DragSource source, Event e, Object data ) : void The function a Ext.dd.DragSource calls once to notify this drop target that the source has been dragged out of the ta... The function a Ext.dd.DragSource calls once to notify this drop target that the source has been dragged out of the target without dropping. This default implementation simply removes the CSS class specified by overClass (if any) from the drop element. Parameters: `source` : Ext.dd.DragSource The drag source that was dragged over this drop target `e` : Event The event `data` : Object An object containing arbitrary data supplied by the drag source Returns: void | DropTarget

The function a Ext.dd.DragSource calls continuously while it is being dragged over the target. This method will be called on every mouse movement while the drag source is over the drop target. This default implementation simply returns the dropAllowed config value. Parameters: `source` : Ext.dd.DragSource The drag source that was dragged over this drop target `e` : Event The event `data` : Object An object containing arbitrary data supplied by the drag source Returns: `String` status The CSS class that communicates the drop status back to the source so that the underlying {@link Ext.dd.StatusProxy} can be updated | DropTarget

Configures the padding for the target zone in px. Effectively expands (or reduces) the virtual object size for targeting calculations. Supports css-style shorthand; if only one parameter is passed, all sides will have that padding, and if only two are passed, the top and bottom will have the first param, the left and right the second. Parameters: `iTop` : int Top pad `iRight` : int Right pad `iBot` : int Bot pad `iLeft` : int Left pad Returns: void | DragDrop
| toString() : string toString method toString method Parameters: None. Returns: `string` string representation of the dd obj | DragDrop
