We are using the Task Panel as a menu, separating the menu groups into taskpanel groups.

We're letting the user drag items around within the groups but not across groups. However, we want to be able to save/load the positions of the menu items (taskpanelgroupitems).

We've looked at the ItemDrop event but it doesn't seem to fire at the right time. We're using this code to check out the positions, but the same item appears twice, where it was and where it is now;

Private Sub tpMain_ItemDrop(ByVal Item As XtremeTaskPanel.ITaskPanelGroupItem)

    Dim tpGroup As TaskPanelGroup
    Dim tpItem As TaskPanelGroupItem

    Set tpGroup = Item.Group

    For Each tpItem In tpGroup.Items
        Debug.Print tpItem.ID, tpItem.Index, tpItem.Caption
    Next

End Sub

Why? How do we go about saving the positions?

Still not possible with 16.3.1

The solution is:
- Store a reference to the item being dragged within BeginDrag: Set m_ItemDragged = Item
- Use xtpTaskItemAllowDragCopyWithinGroup instead of xtpTaskItemAllowDragMoveWithinGroup
- Inside ItemDrop:

Item.Group.Items.Move m_ItemDragged, Item:Index
Item.Remove
Set m_ItemDragged = Nothing
