Can I let my users swap columns via drag and drop? When I set grid.displaylayout.override.allowcolswapping to true, a little dropdown combo appears in each column, but to me that looks cluttered.
I think the ability to move the columns is the defaut action for the grid. If you want to retain the column position you have to save the layout to file and reload when the grid is loaded. Try removing the allowcolswapping line then click on a header and drag it. I think you'll see some big red lines pop up as you move it.
I'm not sure what you mean by removing the allowcolswapping line. I use the designer tool to set properties. But even if you are setting properties via code, not setting that particular value will result in the default behavior, which a simple test reveals to be no column swapping allowed.
I want drag and drop column swapping (or maybe "moving" would be a better term).
