This property also requires that you handle the change of hierarchy in code. If a row is dragged within a single component, use the onReorder handler. If the row is dragged from one component to another, use the onAdd and onRemove handlers.

View Demo

allowReordering

Allows row reordering using drag and drop gestures.

Type:

Boolean

Default Value: false

This property limits row reordering to the UI and does not affect the data source. You should also handle the effects of the drag and drop to the data source in code. If users reorder rows inside a single component, implement the onReorder handler.

For information on drag and drop between components, refer to the group topic.

dropFeedbackMode

Specifies how to highlight the row's drop position.

DragHighlight

Default Value: 'indicate'

This property accepts the following values:

"indicate"

filter

Specifies a CSS selector for draggable rows.

Type:

String

Default Value: '> *'

group

Allows you to group several UI components so that users can drag and drop rows between them.

Type:

String

Default Value: undefined

Set this property to identical values for the UI components you want to collect into a single group. This allows users to drag and drop rows between components, but only in the UI. To handle drag and drop in code, implement the onAdd and onRemove handlers. Both these handlers are executed simultaneously when a row is dropped to the target component, but onAdd is executed in the target component, while onRemove is executed in the source component.
