Is there any way to let the user re-arrange rows in a list

Questions about Thunkable
1

Hi. I know there is such function I Xcode, where you can let the user re-arrange the order in a list. Is that possible at Thunkable?

Sure, you can manipulate a list in Thunkable all you want.

A typical swap of items would work like this:

Set variable [name] to list item #x
Set list item #x to list item #x+1
Set list item #x+1 to variable [name]

There are other ways you can do it but that’s probably the simplest.

Hi. I have been looking at this but can’t make it work properly. Would you mind give some more detailed instructions how I could do?

Thanks in advance!

It’s not really clear from your first post how you want the user to re-order the list (all at once, by swapping etc.).

You can use the algorithm I posted to swap two items in a list. If you post a screenshot of the blocks you’re using, I can help with any problems.

@shirsathdhruvau Is this related to re-arranging a list? If not, you should start a new topic instead of posting here.

Please post screenshots of your Design tab and your Preview screen so we can see what is happening for you.

There is a known bug that prevents visible=false to work when the component is absolutely positioned.

In DnD all components are positioned as absolute and therefore they will not hide if you set visible=false.

Hope that explains the issue.
