拖动 (tuō dòng) — to drag, to pull (something heavy); to tow; (computing) to drag (a mouse operation)
Definition
拖动 (tuōdòng) literally combines 拖 ('drag/pull') and 动 ('move'), so it covers both physical dragging and the computer mouse operation. For the on-screen sense, pair it with 鼠标 — 把A∼到B is the standard click-and-drag pattern.
