Drag-and-Drop, how to drag the element itself?
Hi, i'm novice at JavaFX and i'm little bit confused.
The situation: I have the main HBox container with two VBoxes in it. In the first VBox i have an element, another VBox (Let's say - card element).
The question: How can i make this card element between 2 VBoxes (i mean - this element needed to be snaped to the mouse cursor until it's droped)? Example on the screen (not my work, just found the demo)
Pls, help me. :boohoo:

HBox/VBox doesn't really allow that because these always position elements next to/on top of each other
For drag and drop like that, you need something like
AnchorPane
that allows you to reposition stuff using coordinates
you could try to either put the HBox in an AnchorPane and move the element to drag out of the VBox and onto the AnchorPane while dragging
or you replace the HBox by an AnchorPane💤
