Cannot drag and drop on full row of NSOutlineView

Question

I have an NSOutlineView in which Ive implemented Drag and Drop, its values are populate via bindings.

Everything is working for the logic that I want, which is basically the ability to drop only in-between root level items, and children are not allowed to be dragged or dropped anywhere. So Im just trying to implement a re-order if you will.

My issue comes into play with where on the view my NSOutlineView is accepting drops. It appears that its only allowing me to drop on the far left side of the row. I can't seem to drop anywhere else. My rows are View based, and have an image view.

This shows it working

This is it not working.

Heres my code for the acceptDrop.

- (NSDragOperation)outlineView:(NSOutlineView *)ov validateDrop:(id < NSDraggingInfo >)info proposedItem:(id)item proposedChildIndex:(NSInteger)childIndex {

    // Check to see what we are proposed to be dropping on
    NSTreeNode *targetNode = item;
    // A target of "nil" means we are on the main root tree
    if (targetNode == nil) {
        //If were dropping on the physical item lets say no
       if (childIndex == NSOutlineViewDropOnItemIndex) {
            return NSDragOperationNone;
       }
       //otherwise we are in-between so lets return move.
       return NSDragOperationMove;
    } else {
        return NSDragOperationNone;
    }
}

Is it possible this has something to do with my view setup instead of my NSOutlineView code?

UPDATE:

It works on the very top row no matter where my cursor is, but only on the far left for all other rows.

Answer 1

This fixed it.

NSUInteger maxNumberOfRows = [[_hostController arrangedObjects] count];
// Check to see what we are proposed to be dropping on
NSTreeNode *targetNode = item;
// A target of "nil" means we are on the main root tree
if (targetNode == nil) {
    //If were dropping on the physical item lets say no
    if (childIndex == NSOutlineViewDropOnItemIndex) {
        [ov setDropItem:nil dropChildIndex:maxNumberOfRows];
        return NSDragOperationMove;
    }
    [ov setDropItem:nil dropChildIndex:childIndex];
    return NSDragOperationMove;
} else {
    //If its not a host we dont want to allow drop
    if (![self isHost:[item representedObject]]) {
        return NSDragOperationNone;
    }
    if (childIndex == NSOutlineViewDropOnItemIndex) {
        [ov setDropItem:nil dropChildIndex: [ov rowForItem:item]];
        return NSDragOperationMove;
    }
    return NSDragOperationNone;
}
