This won't be as easy a solution as i'm sure you were hoping for, but
if you go here http://www.ittvis.com/codebank/search.asp?FID=159
you'll find some code posted by Peter Mason that allows drag and drop
functionality for an ENVI display window. It uses a DLM he developed,
but he does include the source code for the DLM if I remember
correctly. So you could, if nothing else, potentially modify the
stuff he posted to work on a draw widget instead of an ENVI display.
Hopefully someone will post something a little more straightforward
though :)
