Spreadsheet - Dragging Cells

Completed
Request Demo

We recommend that their software engineers create spreadsheet functionality to allow us to select certain cells and drag (move) them to other cells. To be more clear, we're asking for functionality similar to Excel where we can drag a cell (or multiple cells) from one location to another location. In Wdesk, we don't have that option.

For example, to re-order rows in a table, we currently have to (1) insert rows or cells where we want to place the cells, (2) copy and paste the cells we want to move, and (3) delete the old cells.

    UPDATE! A recent release to Wdesk has now made 'drag and drop' feature possible :) 

    Thanks so much for your patience, and let me know if you have any questions. Have a great day!

    I see the new drag and drop feature allows you to drag and drop in the imbedded tables in the document to change the order of rows, but I don't find it working in the spreadsheets. You still have to insert a row first and then cut, paste and delete the old row. Or am I missing something?

    Hi Tanya,

    You are correct. Drag and drop for rows or columns is not yet available in Spreadsheets, though you can drag and drop a single cell or group of cells. Work for drag and drop for rows/columns is planned and I'm happy to get you connected there.

    Give me a holler if you have any follow-ups for me or you need anything else. Cheers!
