HOW TO ENABLE DRAG AND DROP (TOUCH) IN IGTREE.
Hello,
No it is not possible to achieve the same exact behavior as it is on mouse enabled devices. However, it is possible to achieve a similar functionality, exposing an additional menu/ using igPopover for example and handling an appropriate event like “click” to open it. What is more, we have exposed a complete API for the igTree, so it could be used to move the node igPopover is opened for to a different one, where it could be copied/pasted using the same igPopover as menu.
We have used a similar approach and exposed additional menu for the igGrid, when it is ran on touch devices. You could refer to the following documentation for more details under igGrid section for reference: http://www.igniteui.com/help/touch-support-for-netadvantage-for-jquery-controls#iggrid
However, there is no such inbuilt functionality at the current moment and a custom approach should be used.
Do i have other options to enable igtree drag and drop in touch devices?
Thanks
Currently Drag-and-drop is supported on mouse-enabled devices (laptops, desktop computers), respectively dragging is not supported on touch-enabled devices.
