Question

I’m dragging a node from one app to another. It’s working fine only if I previously select node. It’s because I collect data using GetNodeData(FocusedNode) method.

I’d like somehow auto-focus the node on node hover. Is it possible?

I’m using VirtualTreeView v. 4.8.7

If you want to focus and select node when you hover it, try the OnHotChange event with the following

procedure TForm1.VirtualStringTree1HotChange(Sender: TBaseVirtualTree; OldNode,
  NewNode: PVirtualNode);
begin
  VirtualStringTree1.FocusedNode := NewNode;
  VirtualStringTree1.Selected[NewNode] := True;
end;
