IlvGraphic
with the mouse and drag it to a new position. -
To copy an object, press and hold the Ctrl key while moving the
IlvGraphic

How to Run the Sample as an Application
This sample can
be run as an application.
The installation directory contains
an executable JAR file,
dragndrop.jar
,
that allows you to execute the sample with a double click from a
file browser. Note that if you are using Internet Explorer, you can
open the installation directory
and execute the JAR file from the browser. This
technique may not work in other Web browsers.
