TreeList Drag Drop with the Ability to Move Siblings

[Joey]

It seems that the current implementation of Kendo's TreeList drag and drop allows for moving a node from one parent to another but does NOT allow for moving the order in which siblings appear. What are my options for doing this? I need a hierarchical grid with additional columns - that's why I chose TreeList. I also need the ability to move items around in the tree.

Hello Joey,

Thank you for the interest in Kendo UI.

Unfortunately, using the Kendo UI TreeList widget with the Sortable widget is a known limitation. This is because the TreeList is using virtual DOM:

Let me know if you need additional information on this matter.

So what are my options then? Is it possible to make a TreeView with columns? Since TreeView does have the drag and drop capability?

Hello Joey,

I can suggest one custom implementation shared with us by one of our customers. This functionality is similar to the Sortable functionality:

Please have in mind that this is a custom implementation, which is provided "as is" and is not officially supported by Kendo UI. Feel free to modify the implementation, according to your preferences.
