mdGridList: unexpected tile ordering

[VilemP]

Hi,

we have a case where we would like to add tiles into the grid in two ways:
a) the first tile is always fixed and basically plays the role of "add new" button for the list items
b) any number of other tiles added via ng-repeat

Unfortunately it is not possible to achieve that as tiles added via ng-repeat have the scope.$parent.$index defined (unlike the others) and as a consequence, they are always put in front of the other tiles.

See this plunkr: http://plnkr.co/edit/uFFmoZMaWallf8M3PHRi?p=preview

I would suggest to allow an "order" attribute for a tile (similar to flexbox) to be able to specify desired order of the tile in the list.

BTW, we have run into similar issue with tabs (a mixture of fixed tabs + tabs created via ng-repeat)

Hi again... actually, the tab behaviour is different (still problematic). I have created another issue and plunkr for it #2226
Sorry for mixing the two together.

mdGridList has been improved for 0.9; which closed many issues.
Please update your Plunkr with latest from #master and retest:

• //rawgit.com/angular/bower-material/master/angular-material.css
• //rawgit.com/angular/bower-material/master/angular-material.js

Hi, I have updated the plunkr, yet the order still seems to be wrong...

This one is kind of tricky. I have to think about it for a bit.
