Draggable layout

WoozyDuck - October 1, 2009 - 18:48

Hi all,

Do we have any sort of draggable layout module similar to bbc.co.uk home page for Drupal?
I have noticed that Panels 2 uses this function so was wondering if there are any modules available?

Many thank

http://drupal.org/project/modules?text=draggable

Thank you very much for your prompt reply but none of them are useful for me
I have actually searched Drupal and even in Google
I am looking for something like layout in iGoogle or BBC home page (sortable/drag-able layout)
The only similar one that I have found is this so far:
http://aymanh.com/drag-drop-portal-interface-with-scriptaculous
but this is with Scriptaculous, I was wondering if I can find one written in jQuery API.

Doable with jquery and jquery ui but it's already been put into a module: http://drupal.org/project/jquery_drag_drop (same query, 7th link).

Thank you again for your reply
but again I think you have misunderstood my question
I am looking for something like this in Drupal:
http://nettuts.s3.amazonaws.com/127_iNETTUTS/demo/index.html
not just dragging blocks around.
The module you have mentioned just add "Sortable" function to the blocks and is not what I am looking for.
I am more looking for something similar to a portal/layout page

I did look at your links before the second comment-- those are draggable blocks. Not sure why 'Jquery Drag Drop Blocks' doesn't do it for you, but it can be done with custom jquery and jquery_ui as well.

Thank you. I am a newbie and not sure how I can develop a layout where you can sort blocks around and do different settings like the one I have mentioned before using Drupal and jQuery, that is why I am looking for a module that does this for me and from your replies I assume there aren't any developed yet!
but again thank you for the hint

I'm not sure why we're talking around each other, but I'll try one last time. Based on the sites you linked, http://drupal.org/project/jquery_drag_drop does it. I don't know any other way of saying it. Good luck.

Thank you very much. I guess

Thank you very much.
I guess it won't be so hard to come up with a module which extends this functionality and gives users the ability to drag blocks/contents around in the interface and store them using Ajax for example.
Again I appreciate your help
