This works correctly for me, using VS2005 and VA 1626 with C++. However it depends on where I drag the item in VA Outline. You need to look at the horizontal position of the dragged item.

Using this code:

static void dragThisIntoRegion() { }

#pragma region EMPTY_REGION

#pragma endregion EMPTY_REGION

If I simply drag the function then I see this:



Note that the dragged item is at the same "level" (horizontal indentation) as the start of the region. When I do this the item is placed after the end region line.

However if I drag it sideways, so that it is shown as a child (greater horizontal indentation) of the start region:



then it is placed inside the region.

This was a little "odd", but thinking about it, this gives you more control for less dragging. If there are a lot of children underneath a node this allows you to quickly and easily move the items to below the child node, without having to drag down the list and position the item after the end of the parent node.

It depends on how complex your VA Outline tree is, and what you are trying to do.
