Drag to Move DNN Module 

Today I learned about a DotNetNuke feature that I have neveer noticed in all of my time working with the system.  Many of you are faimiliar with the Google Personalized homepage and how you can simply click-and-drag a gadget from one location to another.  Well DotNetNuke supports this as well.  I am not sure which version introducted this as I have not noticed it before, however you can simply click-and-hold on a module title (You must click on the text) and then you can drag it to another content pane on your page.

This functionality works just like the action menu's "Move to ..." options but provides a nice method to quickly move modules.  Below is a screen capture of a move in progress!

I think this has been there since the beginning of 3.x, maybe 3.1.1. :)

Actually apparently it was from the 2.x days, it was the first ClientAPI example.

I can't beleive I never noticed it before.

heheh, that must have come as quite a surprise.
I also recall it being added officially at about 3.11

One tip.. when you click.. wait for a couple of seconds before moving the mouse. Makes it work better.
