The drag command in testcomplete needs co-ordinates. You need to know the object to be dragged and the destination and that is, for the Drag method, co-ordinate based.
but! Never fear... I've got a code for that.
In Javascript:
function dragCalculatedDistance(startObject, destinationObject) {
var startPoint, targetPoint, dragX, dragY;
// Drag from the center of object A to the center of object B
startPoint = startObject.WindowToScreen(startObject.Width/2, startObject.Height/2);
targetPoint = destinationObject.WindowToScreen(destinationObject.Width/2, destinationObject.Height/2);
dragX = targetPoint.X - startPoint.X;
dragY = targetPoint.Y - startPoint.Y;
startObject.Drag(-1, -1, dragX, dragY);
}
As noted in the comments, this will drag from roughly the center of the starting object to the center of the destination object.

Why automate? I do automated testing because there's only so much a human being can do and remain healthy. Sleep is a requirement. So, while people sleep, automation that I create does what I've described above in order to make sure that nothing gets past the final defense of the testing group.
I love good food, good books, good friends, and good fun.
