Detailed Description

A DropArea is an invisible item which receives events when other items are dragged over it.

The Drag attached property can be used to notify the DropArea when an Item is dragged over it.

The keys property can be used to filter drag events which don't include a matching key.

The drag.source property is communicated to the source of a drag event as the recipient of a drop on the drag target.
