Overview

An interface which can be implemented by LayoutManager for better integration with ItemTouchHelper.

Summary

Methods

Called by the ItemTouchHelper after a View is dropped over another View.

A LayoutManager should implement this interface to get ready for the upcoming move operation.

For example, LinearLayoutManager sets up a "scrollToPositionWithOffset" calls so that the View under drag will be used as an anchor View while calculating the next layout, making layout stay consistent.

Parameters:

view: The View which is being dragged. It is very likely that user is still dragging this View so there might be other calls to prepareForDrop() after this one.
target: The target view which is being dropped on.
x: The left offset of the View that is being dragged. This value includes the movement caused by the user.
y: The top offset of the View that is being dragged. This value includes the movement caused by the user.
