Apologies for the cross-posting, but I'm not sure where this message
belongs.

Can anyone offer a strategy to incorporate drag and drop with a
mousemotionlistener for the same component?

To rephrase and explain, I'm using an extension of JButton which wraps
another object.  Using dnd, I can move the object from place to place,
and using mousemotionlistener I can physically reposition the extended
JButton in the JPanel.  My efforts to combine the two operations have
not been too successful.  It seems that the motionlistener grabs the
first few motion events and then the dnd listeners kick in.  This effect
makes perfect sense, but I'm looking for a way to implement both pieces
of functionality.

Any solutions/work arounds will be appreciated.
