Portlet Drag and Drop

[Richard Schwerdtfeger]

Colin,

Scratch the last note. Have you implemented aria drag/drop in the
imagegallery tool. I can't see it from the example? It is not clear from
looking at the source. It would be nice to know if an image in the gallery
is draggable. We are looking for real world test cases for ATs.

Hi,

I know there has been some conversation about the best user experience
for reordering portlets. I thought it would be useful if I built an
example to show the alternate user experience.

You can see the new experience here:
http://build.fluidproject.org/sakai-imagegallery-tool/sample-code/reorderer/portal/portalWithAvatarClone.html

and the original experience here:
http://build.fluidproject.org/sakai-imagegallery-tool/sample-code/reorderer/portal/portal.html


One of the problems with the new example is that it also showcases one
of our evil bugs. :)  The bug is that the drop target shows up
somewhere but the portlet drops elsewhere.
http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/FLUID-407  It's quite a tricky
little bug from a technical standpoint because the underlying problem
is that we are getting browser events in the wrong order.  We have a
strategy for working around this issue but it is quite complex and
will take a while to implement.
