# VirtualListView.ItemDrag Event
 
Fires when the user begins to drag an item.
 
**Namespace:** [Aurigma.GraphicsMill.WinControls](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/N_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_WinControls.htm.md)
 **Assembly:** Aurigma.GraphicsMill.WinControls (in Aurigma.GraphicsMill.WinControls.dll)
 
## Syntax
  
```
Public Event ItemDrag As ItemDragEventHandler
```
 
```csharp
public event ItemDragEventHandler ItemDrag
```
 
## Remarks
  
This event occurs when the user begins dragging an item. Typically its handler performs the task of dragging by calling the [DoDragDrop(Object, DragDropEffects)](http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/9zeew0h4) method. You can use it to drag items into and out of your application's [ThumbnailListView](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_WinControls_ThumbnailListView.htm.md) control.
