Does anyone know how workspace implemets view by icon? Is it a scrollview
with its contentview set to matrix of cells that are associated with icons?
I am trying to write something that allows me to drag an icon from it to
another window(same application), virtually like you drag a icon(TIFF) from
work space to the demo program icon.
Any suggestions? Thanks!

Simply register a window from your application with the Workspace Manager and you will get a message whenever the user drags a file icon from a Workspace Manager window to your window. Take a look at the DrawDocument class in the source for the Draw program, provided in /NextDeveloper/Examples/Draw. As you might guess, this indicates that you need not be concerned with the exact implementation of the Workspace icon view window. (It probably is a ScrollView whose docView is a custom view...)
