Drag&drop task that is outside of visible timeline

Dear Syncfusion Team,


Recently I've modified our Gantt solution with better task visibility in gantt - to inlcude tasks that are not contained by timeline, but start/end data is with range.


Everything works well expect drag&drop  - as when task is wayy outside of timeline and user triggers drag&drop - it modifies date to either start, or end of timeline.

Example: timeline start (dd.MM.yyyy): 01.04.2019- end 08.07. 2019

task starts 10.03.2019, lasts for 26 days - once dragged it automatically moves to start date of 01.04.2019 (no way to drag between 10.03 ad 31.03)

Below scenario in stackblitz ('Peform soil test' task) :

I would be grateful for any tips, or future feature request for that scenario,

Best regards,

KJ
