List's order change by dragging.

Hi Karol

Until WEBCON does implement this super cool feature, you might be able to use my approach.

We had this requirement for one of our projects.
I used jQuery sortable https://jqueryui.com/sortable/ and a technical field on the itemlist that tracks the sort order.

What I'm doing is, waiting for the itemlist to be rendered, then I'm applying the sortable extension with a function which is setting the sort order on the technical field.

function waitForElm(selector) {
return new Promise(resolve => {
if (document.querySelector(selector)) {
return resolve(document.querySelector(selector));
}

const observer = new MutationObserver(mutations => {
if (document.querySelector(selector)) {
resolve(document.querySelector(selector));
observer.disconnect();
}
});

observer.observe(document.body, {
childList: true,
subtree: true
});
});
}

waitForElm("#SubElems_#{WFCON:483}# .table tbody").then((elem) => {
$(elem).sortable({
cursor: 'move',
axis: 'y',
stop: function(e, ui) {
changeSortorder();
}});
});

function changeSortorder() {
$(".subelem-row").each(function(index) {
var row = $(this).attr("data-index");
console.log(row);
if (row == undefined) { return;}
SetSubTypedValue(#{WFCON:483}#, row, '#{SFLD:23}#', { value: index + 1 });
})
}

We will have to find a solution when migrating to 2023 (cash instead of jquery) :(
