I've been tinkering with creating a Kanban board. This is my progress thus far. [url]http://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/cFjQ1Iq1pK[/url]

that's brilliant, this is on my to-do list - can you share :mrgreen:

Awesome John.... Where can we send the share donations?

Very impressive, John! Anxious to hear a few clues about how you accomplished this.

Very nice indeed John and would love to hear some more about the JS (plugin?) you are using. I myself am actually also working on a Kanban in Aware and I am using nestable: https://github.com/dbushell/Nestable but I have only done a proof of concept as of yet i.e made sure it works "integrated" in Aware. Next step for me is building the actual "module" and system integration into one of my apps.

Yes! I would love to do the same thing! How?? https://www.awareim.com/forum/d/10020

Would love to see a sample BSV if you can share more in the future.

[quote="JonP"]Yes! I would love to do the same thing! How?? https://www.awareim.com/forum/d/10020>[/quote] Well, first of all a drag and drop feature did exist in Aware where you could drag/drop "things" between different panels (queries for example) but that feature got removed somewhere in V7 I think it was. It was replaced by a better version of reordering "things" inside the one query (something I don't think is working now either by the way. I can't remember the details but I tried to get it working in V7 and found various bugs i.e I couldn't use it). Support promised to the best of my recollection to bring the drag/drop between panels/queries etc. back but I don't think it has gotten reintroduced again. IMO the drag and drop between panels and reordering inside them should both be available in Aware (and possibly improved/modernized). If you look at most webapps today, they use these types of operations all over and not having them makes an app look like something from the 90's. That said, when we don't have these operations etc. available, we can always tinker ourselves like I do (and others like John) but it requires some JS skills (and time quite frankly as you have to do your own solution and then integrate it in Aware). I can share a rudimentary sample BSV with the things I've done as soon as I have something more substantial but is a low priority on my list so might take a long while before that happens. If you are up for it, I would recommend you to take a stab at integrating something like nestable yourself (see my link + google nestable sample code) or any other drag and drop JS code/plugin. The upside to doing it yourself is you learn how "easy" it is to integrate whatever in Aware.

Thanks Henrik, I had been questioning my memory on that. I distinctly remember looking for (and finding) that capability because I needed it to create a Kanban board. That's frustrating that Aware's prioritizes moving toward a more headless DIY platform rather than the RAD platform that they had been promoting. Removing features/capabilities is not cool. I had relied on that being available (and working).

This has nothing to do with "factory" aware.
This is hacking into Kendo widgets with JS.
Ton's of stuff is built into Kendo - we only legitimately access a portion of it through what Vlad gives us.
There's quite a bit more.

So you're saying the entire Kendo library is available when Aware is installed via JS?

Very nice John.
Is the ListView Control part of the Kendo controls in AwareIM. I do not recall ever seeing that option.

AIM custom queries use the Kendo ListView. I tried using AIM custom queries plus some JS to build this, but ran into issues. It was turning into a black hole of workarounds. So what you see now is mostly JS leveraging AIM where it seems to make sense.

It seems that this Kendo example is possible, maybe support can include this feature in the near future

I pulled the CSS and concepts from this example to get started.

Well, it obviously looks nice but the key is....how to get it to update the appropriate attribute / record in the DB.

I am hopefull John Talbot's demo actually does that otherwise it has a great Gee Whiz factor but a Practicality Factor of zero.

Surely you jest. There is no half-assed up in here.

Does the Kendo code examples give you enough to copy and paste into an aware query and then add the attribute tags where needed? I would love to see a demo of behind the senses on how you did this.

Well, there used to be drag and drop functionality on standard queries which has been removed in the newer versions for some reason (as already mentioned) AND the fact that you can do drag and drop on a calendar styled query, means this functionality is in place, it's just not available in the configurator.

So maybe there is not much work to be done here, it just needs to be exposed again in the configurator, maybe in the next update

Support, please could you comment on this and confirm it is possible.

We are thinking of adding the Kanban board feature to 8.2. Please see the discussion in this thread:

Kanban component - PITCH IN (No Drag & Drop planned)
