Sortable: out and over issues

[admsteck]

The out and over functions of a sortable widget are not called correctly with v1.8.1 when using the connectWith option. Testing with v1.7.2 shows the correct behavior. I tested with Chrome 4.1.249.1036 on jsFiddle ​here. You can switch back and forth and see how things work. It also appears the out function is still being called incorrectly as you can see in the example.

There is a fix for this here:

I've been experiencing the "out" behavior mentioned above, even without connectTo. This might somehow be related to, or a regression of bug #3988.

I have 3 sortables linked. If I drag the item from the first sortable over the second sortable, the over-event is fired. If I leave the second sortable, the out-event is fired. If I reenter the second sortable, without entering another sortable, the over- and out-events are not fired again.

If I drag the item now (without releasing the mousebutton) over the third sortable. The over- and out-events are fired. If I reenter, the events are not fired. If I drag now to the second sortable again, now the events are fired again, but only for one time. If I reenter the area of the second, events are not fired. Now I can enter the third sortable again, and I think you understand, the events are fired only for one time.

So, the events over and out are fired only one time until you enter another sortable.

I've run into the same issue, I wish it was fixed. The link to the 'fix' is broken.

Confirming bug; moving item from list1 to list2 without letting go of drag does not fire sortout event (when it should). Once drop (after dragging from list1 to list2) occurs, sortout fires. Moving item back from list2 to list1 results in sortout event firing as expected.

Fix link cited by pboyd is nonexistent, seems pboyd deleted the fix from github. There is no fix at this time.

I'm not sure what fixed this (neither change to Sortable seems relevant ​http://jqueryui.com/changelog/1.9.1/), but this issue no longer occurs as of 1.9.1: ​http://jsfiddle.net/tj_vantoll/RGeMV/. You can bump the version # back down to 1.9.0 to see the issue.
