```kotlin
interface DragAndDropModifierNode : DelegatableNode, DragAndDropTarget
```


A `Modifier.Node` providing low level access to platform drag and drop operations. In most cases,
you will want to delegate to the `DragAndDropModifierNode` returned by the eponymous factory
method.


## Functions

```kotlin
fun drag(
        transferData: DragAndDropTransferData,
        decorationSize: Size,
        drawDragDecoration: DrawScope.() -> Unit,
    )
```


Begins a drag and drop session for transferring data.

#### Parameters

| | |
| --- | --- |
| transferData | the data to be transferred after successful completion of the drag and drop gesture. |
| decorationSize | the size of the drag decoration to be drawn. |
| drawDragDecoration | provides the visual representation of the item dragged during the drag and drop gesture. |



```kotlin
fun acceptDragAndDropTransfer(startEvent: DragAndDropEvent): Boolean
```


The entry point to register interest in a drag and drop session for receiving data.


All `DragAndDropModifierNode` instances in the hierarchy will be given an opportunity to
participate in a drag and drop session via this method.

#### Returns

| | |
| --- | --- |
|  | true to indicate interest in the contents of a drag and drop session, false indicates no interest. If false is returned, this `Modifier` will not receive any `DragAndDropTarget` events. |
