Title: Column header groups - how to prevent nesting?
Post by: rickpqu on February 17, 2019, 11:30:26 pm

I have 2-level column headers grouped into several groups. I found that I can drag a column group into another column group's second level, which results in 3-level column headers. For example, column group G1 with columns C1 and C2, and column group G2 with columns C3 and C4. If I drag G2 next to C1, then the result is

G1
C1 G3      C2
     C3 C4

Is there a way to prevent this group-into-another-group drag? I still want to allow group-next-to-another-group and column-next-to-another-column drags.

Dragged column can be checked in columnDrag event and nodrop property can be applied to columns of other level.

Thanks. I see that columnDrag is triggered when I begin to drag a column. In my project, the decision to prevent the drop of a column is made when the column is dropped, based on whether the drop point is the first row of the column header or the second row. How can I handle this situation?
