Set ghost content

[davestewart]

Is there any way to set the content of the ghost?

I have an operation where I'm dragging a large object (the window column) but when I drag it up into the tabs, I want to collapse it into a smaller object so I can drop it into the named slots:

Right now the size of the original item is causing it to be impossible to see!

Also... would it be possible to change from horizontal to any direction programatically?

When I would swap to the smaller graphic, I would probably want to go from X-axis to all axis.

Hey Dave, Yes I understand. Actually that was a feature once I needed too. Let me see what I can do. Meanwhile you can try updating 'ghost'. You can get it by querySelector('.smooth-dnd-ghost')

I had previously thought I wouldn't be able to do this.

It would be so exciting if it became possible!

Thank you :D

@davestewart Did you find any workaround for this in the meantime until @kutlugsahin figures something out?

[davestewart]

I haven't had time to think about it since! My work schedule is killing me :(

Push! This would be also useful for an indicator when dragging multiple items.

same problem here, need possibility to update UI before drag starts and collapse ghost's content

Hey @kutlugsahin !

I'm finally back on this feature...

Not sure if you managed to think about it since?
