public class DragIcon : Widget, Accessible, Buildable, ConstraintTarget, Native, Root

GtkDragIcon is a Root implementation with the sole purpose to serve as a drag icon during DND operations.

A drag icon moves with the pointer during a drag operation and is destroyed when the drag ends.

To set up a drag icon and associate it with an ongoing drag operation, use get_for_drag to get the icon for a drag. You can then use it like any other widget and use set_child to set whatever widget should be used for the drag icon.

Keep in mind that drag icons do not allow user input.
