You can use a drop target component to make an element a target for drag-and-drop behavior.

UiDropTargetBus

Services messages for the UiDropTargetComponent.

GetDropState

Returns the current drop state of the drop target component.

Syntax

eUiDropState GetDropState()

Following are possible values for eUiDropState.

enum eUiDropState
    {
        eUiDropState_Normal,
        eUiDropState_Valid,
        eUiDropState_Invalid
    };

Syntax

const AZStd::string& GetOnDropAction()

SetDropState

Sets the current drop state of the drop target component.

Syntax

Void SetDropState(eUiDropState dragState)

For possible values for eUiDropState, see GetDropState.

SetOnDropAction

Sets the action triggered when a draggable component is dropped on this drop target.

Syntax

Tip
A more flexible way to be notified when a drop occurs is to use the UiDropTargetNotificationBus.

UiDropTargetNotificationBus

Services notifications for the UiDropTargetComponent.

OnDrop

Occurs when a draggable component is dropped on this drop target. The draggable component is passed in. Implement the game logic of what should happen on drag and drop here.

Syntax

void OnDrop(AZ::EntityId draggable)

OnDropHoverEnd

Occurs when the focus stops being on this drop target during dragging. The draggable component that is being dragged is passed into this function.

Syntax

void OnDropHoverEnd(AZ::EntityId draggable)

OnDropHoverStart

Occurs when the focus starts to be on this drop target during dragging. The draggable component that is being dragged is passed into this function.

Syntax

void OnDropHoverStart(AZ::EntityId draggable)
