Make reordering cards possible

[ThomasMahon]

What's your feature/idea?

Cards cant be swapped around whereas their derivative control - tables - allow their rows and columns to be adjusted.

Similarly the contents of the card cant be changed, which is a major problem if you add a new column (property) to a card and want to swap its location with another property. There is no way to do it.

What's your desired outcome?

Ability to change order of cards by drag-move.
Ability to change the order of columns (properties) in cards.

What's the impact of this for you?

• Critical
• High
• Medium
• Low

Anything else?

Turn the cards into tables and reorder them until this problem is resolved. ;)

@volkantash that was one of the first things I tried, but switching between cards and tables resets the order so it does nothing - how have you got it to work? I'm using Chrome so is this maybe a bug in the Browser or did you just speak too soon?

@volkantash Ignore my reply I've got mixed up between reordering cards and my other feature request to re-order fields in cards! Thanks for the reply.

My way

Create card
Create fields
If need ordering
Click option/drag button
Select table style
Use table's drag buttons
Click option/drag button
Select card style
Check other options.
Done!

"Yes. I don't like doing that either. However, until this uselessness is over, I am content with this method."

I've just noticed that reordering them currently does not persist. Tried multiple times and the only way to keep the table fields reordered is to create a new table with the same content.
