Drag item inside button and retrieve item info

[Benalish]

I created a button. Once I have dragged an item (for example, an object from the bags) into the button, how can I retrieve information about the item such as, for example, its icon?

This might point you in the right direction.

I haven't done anything like this before myself but this page sounds like it covers the task you are trying.

GetCursorInfo() says what's on the cursor. You can call that when your button receives something:

local f = CreateFrame("ItemButton","RdD",UIParent)
f:SetPoint("CENTER",-200,0)
 
local function onReceive(self)
  local cursorType, cursorID, cursorLink = GetCursorInfo()
  if cursorType=="item" then
    local _,_,_,_,icon = GetItemInfoInstant(cursorID)
    self.icon:SetTexture(icon)
    ClearCursor()
  end
end
 
f:SetScript("OnReceiveDrag",onReceive)
f:SetScript("OnClick",onReceive)
