How can I lock down a ktd-grid-item? Preventing any movement or replacement!

[abdulhaseeb-hub]

Is there any possibility that we can lock an individual grid item and it cannot be moved, nor replaced by another ktd-grid-item

I think what you are describing is the ability to have "static" grid items. This feature is listed in the TODO list, but it is currently not implemented.

The good news is that it should be relatively easy to implement since it is supported within the grid compaction algorithm.

I will try to enable this feature in the next few days and see how is it working, I will give you some feedback soon.

Yes, I am talking about this scenario where, if we lock the line chart grid item, it will fix to his position and the bar chart grid item or any grid item can't take his place,

I created a Draft PR for this feature. It would be nice if you could test it. That said, I am not fully convinced of how it is working right now. More particularly, I wrote a test use case that is not behaving as expected, and should be fixed IMO (it is the only test that is not passing). I will try to investigate and fix it. Meanwhile, I will keep this feature as a draft.

Feedback is welcome!

Perfect, I will look into it, and get back to you thankyou :)

I find this feature would be very useful. It is quite common need to create header rows or columns which are not expected to be dragged or replaced in any way. The way I see it, this feature request has two parts:

1. specific cells should not be draggable - there is already a boolean property for this in KtdGridLayoutItem called 'draggable'.

2. specific cells should not collide with one another - this may be a generalization of KtdGridComponent's 'preventCollision' property - which applies to every cell inside the grid. A property with the same name could be added to KtdGridLayoutItem which does exactly the same just on cell level instead of grid level.

Hi,

First, thanks a lot for the library. It is really powerful and easy to use.

My use case is having the possibility to set as a header some grid items, but allow the user to change the others. I have currently defined some grid items as not draggable, but those grid items can be moved my other dragging other items before them.

Is there any progress on this?
