how to modify a reference of an element in ngx drag drop

I am using ngx-drag-drop in order to do drag and drop of complex element in angular 4



<mat-list-item *ngFor="let item of draggableListRight"
[dndDraggable]="item"
(dndStart)="onDragStart($event, item)">


in ts i have



 draggableListLeft = [
{
content: "1",
effectAllowed: "move",
disable: false,
handle: false,
},
{
content: "2",
effectAllowed: "move",
disable: false,
handle: false,
}]

onDragStart( event:DragEvent, item:any ) {
item.content = "lol"
this.currentDragEffectMsg = "";
this.currentDraggableEvent = event;
}


I want to be able to modify the content of the div while the drag and drop start, but I am unable to do that. I probably think that the lib is doing a copy of the element and I am not able to modify it after the drag started.



Is there a workaround ?
