This document describes the basic drag and drop mechanism and
outlines the approach used to enable it in custom widgets. Drag
and drop operations are also supported by Qt's item views and by
the graphics view framework. More information is available in
outlines the approach used to enable it in custom controls. Drag
and drop operations are also supported by many of Qt's controls,
such as the item views and graphics view framework, as well as
editing controls for Qt Widgets and Qt Quick. More information
about item views and graphics view is available in
\l{Using drag and drop with item views} and \l{Graphics View
Framework}.

\li \l{QStyleHints::startDragVelocity()} indicates how fast (in pixels/second)

\section1 Drag and Drop in Qt Quick
The rest of the document focuses mainly on how to implement drag and drop
in C++. For using drag and drop inside a Qt Quick scene, please read the
documentation for the Qt Quick \l{Drag}, \l{DragEvent} and \l{DropArea} items.
There is also an example \l{quick/draganddrop}{available}.
