V7 Kendo UI Wishlist

RLJB

I realise it's a bit late in the game for V7 (or perhaps it's early for V7.1), but would LOVE to have Kendo Grid with drag/drop reordering .... like this:

Here is a fiddle example: http://jsfiddle.net/JBeQn/

I'd also like to add a request to the above feature request.

I had to implement this in Aware as a server side with Up/Down buttons and not client side with JS. The reason was that, every time an item would shift up or down, there is a sequence number (an attribute) that also needs to updated, so if the item was moved up, it's sequence number would reduced by one.

If Support decides to implement this feature, please be sure to give us the power to attach process to each direction movement, so we can re-sequence the items properly at the server side as well. Our grids are sorted by that important sequence number.

Thanks!

This feature is already in version 7 (and in version 6 for that matter - using Sencha drag and drop)

That is pretty easy to implement Ben. I will try and extract that solution I can up with and do up a demo when I get a break in the traffic.
Works perfectly.

Mark, when you say "That is pretty easy", are you referring to implementing the re-sequencing? If yes, as I said in my post I've already done that currently using buttons as following.

My request was, when the dragging up or down for each row, be able to execute process.

Ah... yes.....

I understand what you mean now.

I did it the same way as you have in the screen shot

The critical thing is that when a Row is "dragged" up or down via Client's JS, the above row and below rows also need to get updated at server side with their seq #. A click on a button does a bunch of things in the backend process in my app. So we use drag & drop in V7 we need to be able to hook those processes to D&D, otherwise you will have wrong sequence numbers ad row numbers. That was my point.
