Somehow I must’ve missed the proper documentation for something as simple as this. Searching via Google does not exactly yield useful results either.

So, here’s what I want to do: Draw a rectangle (div), make it draggable and drop it somewhere else, with a proper validation that the drop point is an actually valid one.

How would I go about doing that with the tools provided by the Visual Studio 11 Beta?

All I’ve found so far is the onDragging-Event which is not really helpful due to the scarcity of information provided.

Code sample would be great, I could also live with a link to some blog or such.

Edit: Drag and drop through touchscreen input, that is, not through the “normal” mouse interaction.

    Just got a reply from a Microsoft employee: It’s a bug:
    http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winappswithhtml5/thread/88cfb689-2e38-417c-a2be-9682f1a23ae4/

    So, until that bug is fixed, it seems you really have to roll your own.
