how can I enable drag and drop in subgrid?

I have grid with multiple subgrids. I need to be able to drag rows (change their order essentially) inside of each subgrid, but not between subgrids. How can I achieve that?

You can include following lines at the sub grid configuration:
<head>
...
<beforeInit>
<call command="enableDragAndDrop">
<param>true</param>
</call>
</beforeInit>
</head>

Thank you, but how can I prevent drag-and-drop between grids? I need rows to be draggable only inside their own grid.

Please check this article how to manage Drag and Drop in Grid http://dhtmlx.com/docs/products/dhtmlxGrid/doc/articles/Managed_Drag_and_Drop.html#grid_mandnd

I read the article. It probably answers my question by omission. Let me ask again - is there any property or parameter that I can use to make sure that drag-and-drop is only allowed inside of the grid, but not between grids? Or do I need to re-define "onDrag" even to block dropping in another grid? If I do need to redefine it, how can I do that for subgrids? Is there a way to do that in xml?

The only way to disable drag-n-drop betwenn grid is to use "onDrag" event.

How can I attach "onDrag" handler to a sub grid?
Answer posted by dhxSupport on Jul 13, 2009 07:42

You can use "onSubGridCreated" event:

grid.attachEvent("onSubGridCreated",function(sub,id,ind,value){
sub.attachEvent("onDrag",function(){});
return true;
})
