Draggable items stuck inside a DockLayoutPanel about gwtquery-plugins

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Figured out the issue. DockLayoutPanel makes ample use of overflow: hidden in 
it's CSS. I just had to override starting with the widget I placed in the panel 
like so:

        Element parentElement = scrollPanel.getElement().getParentElement();

        parentElement.getStyle().setOverflow( Style.Overflow.VISIBLE );

        parentElement = parentElement.getParentElement().getParentElement();

        parentElement.getStyle().setOverflow( Style.Overflow.VISIBLE );

Or maybe use helper and appendTo options :

dragOptions.setHelper(HelperType.CLONE);
dragOptions.setAppendTo("body");

By appending the drag helper to the body, you avoid the problem of the 
overflow:hidden of the parent container,

We had similar problem with TabLayoutPanel, using appendTo fixed that too. 
Thanks :-)
