I tried doing that but it does not work. I added these two lines in the jquery window ready function. Even tried putting it in the  $.ig.loader function, but that does not work as well. Please assist. We have a need for this functionality and any help will be appreciated. Please respond to me at biren.ajmera@kochind.com as I'm not sure what email address this account is setup with.

$("#igGrid tbody").sortable();
$("#igGrid tbody").disableSelection();

Well, I have found solution. May be it will be helpfull for someone else:

We just need to recalculate height:

start: function (evt, ui) {

       ui.placeholder.height(ui.item.height());

...

Hello,

I have tried your solution and it works fine :)

But I noticed one issue. It works weird when we are switching-on Selection feature and when we are trying to drag selected row. Do you have any ideas about the reason?

Thanks,

I can access the record by findRecordByKey and apply the same changes like sorting order to the datasource items, but unfortunately I can't sort this datasource array.

Based on your recommendation I have tried to implement the drag and drop of rows. 

Primarly everything works fine. I have been also able to update the table cells to reflect the new sorting order.

But I have found a problem, which happens after applying a updateRow command. The other table cells were refreshed with the old content.

As far as I have understand this happens because the underlying datasource must be also updated. 

The question is how can I achieve this?

Another issue I've noticed is that after dragging rows, the zebra striping does not get refreshed. So I end up with adjacent rows with the same background color. Is there a way to refresh the zebra striping on the grid after dragging rows?
