How do I detect if item is being dropped into a container? #381

Hello,

I have created a call back function which is called by "dnd-drop" attribute.

In this function, I have access to "index". However, I can't see any way of checking if this index is within a container or a root index in the list?

Am I missing something?

kind regards, Sean

in your dnd-drop callback, you can get the event. Inside this event is the path - if your structure is fixed then you can easily check if it's nested inside a container or not (for example, anything dropped into a container returned true for event.path[4].nodeName === "LI"
