Moving grouped columns indicates it should work, but doesn't

[rheathParticipant]

I’ve had a couple of reports from users who have issues moving grouped columns.

In the screenshot below, you can see they are trying to move the N column to the right. They are being shown the green tick that indicates it’s a valid move, but when you drop the column nothing happens.

Obviously moving a grouped column also requires all columns under parents up to the first common parent to also be moved.

I hoped I could work around this by picking up the columnreordered event and recreating the grid with the new column order myself, but unfortunately the event doesn’t fire in this situation.

Thoughts?

It would be great if the columns moved OR there was an event I could listen to and do the move in my code OR if the green tick didn’t appear.

I’ve reproduced this on 4.0.0 and 4.1.2 in Chrome (latest) on Windows.

Thanks!

Hi Richard,

This is not an issue. It’s a not supported scenario. You can’t move columns from one group to another.

Hi Peter.

It’s an issue for my users as they are being shown the green tick indicator that shows it is a valid move and are confused when it doesn’t work.

If this isn’t supported in the the grid that’s cool, but could you show a different indicator, maybe a red cross to indicate this to users? Alternatively it would be great to still get the event, so I can handle the move in my code.

Thanks,

Richard
