When configuring a block grid data type, blocks cannot be dragged to an arbitrary location

[stephen-sherman]

Which Umbraco version are you using? (Please write the exact version, example: 10.1.0)

15.1.0

Bug summary

When configuring a block grid data type, blocks can only be dragged to the end of a row of blocks, not to an arbitrary location between other blocks.

In the below examples, the green checks indicate where a block may be dragged to depending on the size and wrapping of the editor UI.

Specifics

No response

Steps to reproduce

1. Install a new Umbraco 15.1.0 solution
2. Configure a block grid data type with a handful of blocks
3. Attempt to sort the list of blocks by dragging and dropping

Expected result / actual result

Expected result

• Blocks can be ordered arbitrarily by dragging them to the desired location

Actual result

• Blocks can only be dropped at the ends of rows of blocks

Workaround

• It is still possible to get blocks in the correct order, it just requires a lot more effort than it should

Hi there @stephen-sherman!

Firstly, a big thank you for raising this issue. Every piece of feedback we receive helps us to make Umbraco better.

We really appreciate your patience while we wait for our team to have a look at this but we wanted to let you know that we see this and share with you the plan for what comes next.

• We'll assess whether this issue relates to something that has already been fixed in a later version of the release that it has been raised for.
• If it's a bug, is it related to a release that we are actively supporting or is it related to a release that's in the end-of-life or security-only phase?
• We'll replicate the issue to ensure that the problem is as described.
• We'll decide whether the behavior is an issue or if the behavior is intended.

We wish we could work with everyone directly and assess your issue immediately but we're in the fortunate position of having lots of contributions to work with and only a few humans who are able to do it. We are making progress though and in the meantime, we will keep you in the loop and let you know when we have any questions.

Thanks, from your friendly Umbraco GitHub bot 🤖 🙂
