Hi, Im new to SwiftUI and Im trying to implement some drag and drop functionality for some tabs in my application.

Im using .draggable(_) and .dropDestination for this and the issue I have is that as I drag the view, the mouse cursor changes to the copy cursor with the green plus sign and I don't like it but I can't figure out how to avoid it.

Any help would be appreciated.

@santalvarez Use draggable(_:preview:) to implement a custom drag preview and customize its appearance. The preview is rendered when a drag operation begins.

You should checkout Making a view into a drag source, it coveres how to define a custom preview for the dragged item.
