When dragging terms in a list, their weights are forced to range from 0 up to 128. Since I have more terms, the 129th, 130th terms, etc. can not be dragged into their proper place.

Weight can manually be set to start at -128, -127, -126 etc, but as soon as a term is dragged, the weight begins at 0, 1, 2 etc, and I am unable to drag all terms into their proper place.

Term weights should begin at -128, when dragged and saved. Even better, weights should not be restricted to -128 to 127. The weight field should indicate the range allowed.

My terms are a sequential list: Issue #1, Issue #2 .. Issue #100.. Issue #140, etc.

the Problem is that, the database field is only tiny int

change the weight field of {term_data} to normal int, and all is fine

this problem was there many times, search for more descriptions

Ah yes. See "Need bigger weight range!"

Dragging should still cope with the range -128 to +127, rather than defaulting to 0 to +127.

Marking as duplicate of #612870: Weight fields should be int, not tinyint, which is patched in D7 and set to be backported to D6.
