Grid Drag and Drop

Dear,

I use ASP.NET Web Forms with vb.net code.

First question:
I have a grid dgInventory bound to a JSON datasource. Customer can select items from the inventory grid en drag them to the dgOrderItems grid. I've enabled the  DropTargetID on both grids, but dropping on the dgOrderItems grid is not working, the records are not added to the grid.

Second question:
Is it possible to make a custom ContextMenu to move the selected items from the dgInventory to the dgOrderItems grid?

Code Behind:

        Dim lstInventory As List(Of iTOS.Inventory) = GetJSON(Of List(Of iTOS.Inventory))("https://xxx/api/InventoryStock")
        dgInventory.DataSource = lstInventory
        dgInventory.DataBind()

        Dim lstOrderItems As New List(Of iTOS.Inventory)
        dgOrderItems.DataSource = lstOrderItems
        dgOrderItems.DataBind()

Hi Peter, 

Thanks for using Syncfusion Products. 

Query#: Dropping of data from one grid to another grid not working 

We have analysed your query at our end and the reported issue may occur due to the DropTargetID definition in the aspx page. We suggest you to define the DropTargetID as shown in the below code snippet. 

 
Aspx page 

<asp:Content runat="server" ID="BodyContent" ContentPlaceHolderID="MainContent" ClientIDMode="Static"> 
 
    <div> 
          
                <ej:Grid ID="OrdersGrid" runat="server" AllowPaging="true" AllowRowDragAndDrop="true"  > 
                    <EditSettings AllowEditing="true" AllowAdding="true"  AllowDeleting="true" EditMode="Normal"></EditSettings> 
                    <ToolbarSettings ShowToolbar="true" ToolbarItems="add,edit,delete,update,cancel"></ToolbarSettings> 
                      <RowDropSettings DropTargetID="#DestGrid" /> 
                    <PageSettings PageSize="12" /> 
                    <Columns>  
                        <ej:Column Field="OrderID" HeaderText="OrderID" IsPrimaryKey="True" TextAlign="Right" Width="75" /> 
                        <ej:Column Field="CustomerID" HeaderText="CustomerID" Width="80" /> 
                        <ej:Column Field="ShipCity" HeaderText="ShipCity" Width="80" EditType="DropdownEdit" /> 
                        <ej:Column Field="ShipCountry" EditType="DropdownEdit" HeaderText="ShipCountry" Width="80" /> 
                        <ej:Column Field="ShipName" HeaderText="ShipName" Width="80" /> 
                    </Columns> 
 
                </ej:Grid> 
        <ej:Grid ID="DestGrid" runat="server" AllowPaging="true" AllowRowDragAndDrop="true"  > 
                    <EditSettings AllowEditing="true" AllowAdding="true" AllowDeleting="true" EditMode="Normal"></EditSettings> 
                    <ToolbarSettings ShowToolbar="true" ToolbarItems="add,edit,delete,update,cancel"></ToolbarSettings> 
                      <RowDropSettings DropTargetID="#OrdersGrid" /> 
                    <PageSettings PageSize="12" /> 
                    <Columns>  
                        <ej:Column Field="OrderID" HeaderText="OrderID" IsPrimaryKey="True" TextAlign="Right" Width="75" /> 
                        <ej:Column Field="CustomerID" HeaderText="CustomerID" Width="80" /> 
                        <ej:Column Field="ShipCity" HeaderText="ShipCity" Width="80" EditType="DropdownEdit" /> 
                        <ej:Column Field="ShipCountry" EditType="DropdownEdit" HeaderText="ShipCountry" Width="80" /> 
                        <ej:Column Field="ShipName" HeaderText="ShipName" Width="80" /> 
                    </Columns> 
 
                </ej:Grid> 
    </div> 
 
</asp:Content> 
    

 

For your reference we have uploaded the cs sample. Kindly refer it. 

This can also be achieved by defining dropTargetID in the server side as shown in the below code snippet and demo. Kindly refer it. 

………….. 
this.OrdersGrid.RowDropSettings.DropTargetID = "#" + this.DestGrid.ClientID; 
this.DestGrid.RowDropSettings.DropTargetID = "#" + this.OrdersGrid.ClientID; 
……………….. 
 



Query#: Is it possible to make a custom ContextMenu to move the selected items from the dgInventory to the dgOrderItems grid? 

We will check it at our end and update you the response soon. 

Please revert us if you need more assistance on this.
