I am using the drag-and-drop feature with jqGrid version 3.4.4. I works great! The only issue is that I am allowing users to edit data as well and this of course happens as they select/click the row to edit before clicking the “edit this row” icon, which also triggers the drag and drop event. Although it does work to some degree the users are confused as you can see the Ajax call as you select the record (which makes an Ajax call to save the newly dragged item) although they have not technically dragged it at all, and it removes the highlighting from the row, so when they click the edit icon it does work but some users are waiting for the Ajax call to finish and highlight their row which does never happen. So all a bit confusing. So the problem in short is that the drag-and-drop event needs to be ignored when simply clicking/selecting the row. I placed this under bugs as I am not sure if it is an issue or a “feature”.
