Class Ext.dd.DragDropMgr

Package:	Ext.dd
Defined In:	DDCore.js
Class:	DragDropMgr
Extends:	Object

DragDropMgr is a singleton that tracks the element interaction for all DragDrop items in the window. Generally, you will not call this class directly, but it does have helper methods that could be useful in your DragDrop implementations.

This class is a singleton and cannot be created directly.
