[Solved] Grid with Drag and Drop to Download

[REB]

Google Chrome allows drag-and-drop file downloads (from browser to desktop).

Is it possible to display files in a Kendo UI Grid with multiple selection enabled, and allow users to drag-and-drop grid rows to download the associated files?

I've searched the forums but was unable to find other threads on this topic. From what I've seen in code, Kendo Draggable doesn't support dragging outside of the browser and having a grid with multiple selection enabled seems to interfere with native drag-and-drop support.

Has anyone encountered this scenario before, or seen any information on the topic? Thanks!

Hi Mr. Buffalo,

Your understanding is correct - Kendo Draggable does not work outside of the browser.
The scenario you described is not supported out of the box because the multiple selection marquee that appears on drag start and interferes with the native drag and drop of the browser cannot be disabled. In case using the native drag and drop is of a greater importance for you, please consider disabling the multiple selection.
