Hi Sonali,



I was facing this problem this problem too, and I created a script to solve that this way:


  1. Retrieve the dragged object (with a find method, for example)


  2. Retrieve the destination object (the same way)


  3. Calculate the difference between dragged and destination objects top and left:

    - dragX = dragged object width / 2

    - dragY = dragged object height / 2

    - destinationX = dragged object left + dragX - ( destination object left + destination object width / 2 )

    - destinationY = dragged object top + dragY - ( destionation object top + destination object height / 2 )


  4. Perform the drag and drop to these coordinates


This should do the trick!
