I am trying to implement a custom drag & drop implementation for columns inside kendo grid. Is it possible to add for example something like CDK Angular drag and drop -> https://material.angular.io/cdk/drag-drop/overview , because current drag & drop implementation for one of our projects doesnt include everything that we need.

 

Currently we are looking for a solution to override the behavior of drag of element, dropping of element, showing placeholder when the element is dragged and similar, and we can't achieve them with default kendo drag drop on grid tables.

Hi Aleksandar,

Indeed, the use of the AngularMaterial drag and drop functionality on top of Kendo UI for Angular Grid is not supported. The limitation is caused due to the Grid rendering its representational DOM only after the Application is compiled. But the material drag and drop functionality can be applied only on default HTML elements.

I understand that this may be disappointing but the listed requirements are currently unavailable by the default columns reordering functionality of the Grid. Unfortunately currently there isn't a workaround that we can suggest as well. What could be done at this point is to log new feature requests asking for each desired functionality of the columns reordering behavior in our public Feedback Portal:

http://kendoui-feedback.telerik.com/forums/555517-kendo-ui-for-angular-feedback

That will allow our clients to vote for the respective features and we will be able to track the demand for them and eventually add them to our future development plans.

Please let us know in case we can provide any further information about this or any other Kendo UI for Angular related topic. Thank you.

Regards,
Svetlin
