WPF C#: Rearrange items in listbox via drag and drop

Question

I am trying to figure out how to move the items in a pre-populated listbox up and down via mouse drags.

I have looked at the Control.DoDragDrop method from microsof

Answer 1

This has helped me greatly thank you. Especially the generics version.

I made the following amendments:

Because I don't set the DataContext of the ListBox (just the ItemsSource), I use

var items = this.ItemsSource as IList;

in the Move method.

And at the end of "Move" I added:

this.SelectedItem = source;

as I want the user to have the moved item as the current selection.
