    Methods in java.awt.dnd that return DragGestureEvent
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `DragGestureEvent` | DragSourceContext.`getTrigger()` Returns the `DragGestureEvent` that initially triggered the drag.

    Methods in java.awt.dnd with parameters of type DragGestureEvent
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `protected DragSourceContext` | DragSource.`createDragSourceContext(java.awt.dnd.peer.DragSourceContextPeer dscp, DragGestureEvent dgl, Cursor dragCursor, Image dragImage, Point imageOffset, Transferable t, DragSourceListener dsl)` Creates the `DragSourceContext` to handle the current drag operation.
    `void` | DragGestureListener.`dragGestureRecognized(DragGestureEvent dge)` This method is invoked by the `DragGestureRecognizer` when the `DragGestureRecognizer` detects a platform-dependent drag initiating gesture.
    `void` | DragSource.`startDrag(DragGestureEvent trigger, Cursor dragCursor, Image dragImage, Point dragOffset, Transferable transferable, DragSourceListener dsl)` Start a drag, given the `DragGestureEvent` that initiated the drag, the initial `Cursor` to use, the `Image` to drag, the offset of the `Image` origin from the hotspot of the `Cursor` at the instant of the trigger, the subject data of the drag, and the `DragSourceListener`.
    `void` | DragSource.`startDrag(DragGestureEvent trigger, Cursor dragCursor, Image dragImage, Point imageOffset, Transferable transferable, DragSourceListener dsl, FlavorMap flavorMap)` Start a drag, given the `DragGestureEvent` that initiated the drag, the initial `Cursor` to use, the `Image` to drag, the offset of the `Image` origin from the hotspot of the `Cursor` at the instant of the trigger, the `Transferable` subject data of the drag, the `DragSourceListener`, and the `FlavorMap`.
    `void` | DragSource.`startDrag(DragGestureEvent trigger, Cursor dragCursor, Transferable transferable, DragSourceListener dsl)` Start a drag, given the `DragGestureEvent` that initiated the drag, the initial `Cursor` to use, the `Transferable` subject data of the drag, and the `DragSourceListener`.
    `void` | DragSource.`startDrag(DragGestureEvent trigger, Cursor dragCursor, Transferable transferable, DragSourceListener dsl, FlavorMap flavorMap)` Start a drag, given the `DragGestureEvent` that initiated the drag, the initial `Cursor` to use, the `Transferable` subject data of the drag, the `DragSourceListener`, and the `FlavorMap`.

    Constructors in java.awt.dnd with parameters of type DragGestureEvent
    Constructor and Description
    `DragSourceContext(java.awt.dnd.peer.DragSourceContextPeer dscp, DragGestureEvent trigger, Cursor dragCursor, Image dragImage, Point offset, Transferable t, DragSourceListener dsl)` Called from `DragSource`, this constructor creates a new `DragSourceContext` given the `DragSourceContextPeer` for this Drag, the `DragGestureEvent` that triggered the Drag, the initial `Cursor` to use for the Drag, an (optional) `Image` to display while the Drag is taking place, the offset of the `Image` origin from the hotspot at the instant of the triggering event, the `Transferable` subject data, and the `DragSourceListener` to use during the Drag and Drop operation.
