v5.1.1 JQ version - Nested Grid Drag out...

[albowler]

Subject of the issue

In version 5.1.1 - the jQuery version - it is not possible to drag a widget out of a nested grid. Also, drag and drop inside of a nested grid does not work as expected.

Similar to the bug reported here: #1700

unlikely to get fixed as I'm switching away from jq and going native only in the future (once I can get mouse+touch for mobile).

Could you fix it for a donation please? 🙏🤞

Hi Alain, I see from other messages now that other people have offered to make donations to have bugs fixed - and just disappeared. So I’m sorry if my above message sounded like I wasn’t being serious.

We’d be willing to pay you to fix this bug, and add some other features to gridstack - I’ve sent you a little donation to show you we’d like to contribute to the fix/development 🫣😃

@Prid13 only @ataft has donated $50 so far which is very much appreciated. heck, if most people that use gridstack would even give 'beer money', someone could possibly make this a fulltime gig... never heard from @ranjeettamil again.
If a few people are willing to back this one, I'll take a look. I'm pretty sure this is not an easy one at all... been tried before (a reason same bug #141 has been sitting for 5.5 years!)

@albowler ping me directly on slack (https://gridstackjs.troolee.com/) to continue this... I already spent 4h saturday trying to even get the drag items to not be clipped for nested grid, and trying to work around jquery is a major pain...

I sent you email, but why do you even need to use the JQ version ? as I said it will go away someday as I don't want to support multiple plugging going forward, and is old tech/no longer actively supported.

fixed in v6 with new native (not more jq)
