When I make a draggable clone and drop it in a droppable I cannot drag it again. How do I do that? Secondly I can only figure out how to us .append
to add the clone to the droppable. But then it snaps to the top-left corner after any existing element and not the drop position.
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#container").droppable({
drop: function(event, ui) {
$(this).append($(ui.draggable).clone());
}
});
$(".product").draggable({
helper: 'clone'
});
});
</script>
<div id="container">
</div>
<div id="products">
<img id="productid_1" src="images/pic1.jpg" class="product" alt="" title="" />
<img id="productid_2" src="images/pic2.jpg" class="product" alt="" title="" />
<img id="productid_3" src="images/pic3.jpg" class="product" alt="" title="" />
</div>
One way to do it is:
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#container").droppable({
accept: '.product',
drop: function(event, ui) {
$(this).append($("ui.draggable").clone());
$("#container .product").addClass("item");
$(".item").removeClass("ui-draggable product");
$(".item").draggable({
containment: 'parent',
grid: [150,150]
});
}
});
$(".product").draggable({
helper: 'clone'
});
});
But I'm not sure if it is nice and clean coding.
