Column Reordering Indexes

[Alex]

Hi,

I'm working on a solution for my team's grid implementation. We need to prevent certain columns from being reordered into the last column position if that last column is designated as immovable. Is there a way to retrieve the target index of where a column is being moved to, so we can conditionally restrict reordering?

Thank you!

Hello Alex,

You can use the orderIndex of the columns to determine the new order. You can also lock the last column and use the approach demonstrated in the following example (with a small modification by changing the sort order) or you can manually ensure that you put the last column with the highest orderIndex after the reordering:

• https://stackblitz.com/edit/react-tkghyx-medo2z?file=app%2Fmain.jsx

The above example uses the locked functionality and the custom code ensures that no column can be put before the locked columns.

Hope this helps.
