Column swaper

Open nickhamze opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I use the row block a lot and frequently I'll get done and I'll wish that I would have put the information differently than I did. Sure you can group all the blocks and drag them from one side to another but it's kinda a pain.

Describe the solution you'd like I'd love to have a column swap button. Basically you push it and it swaps the contents of the columns. Everything that was on the right is on the left and vice versa. It's a little trickier when you have more than two columns but I think you could have the middle column in a three column stay in place while the others flip and with four you can have the right two swap with the left two.

Hey Nick, this is definitely an interesting idea. I was surprised to discover that even the core columns block doesn't provide a mechanism for moving the columns around.

Sorry for posting all this stuff. I was really bored one day and I went a little overboard.

I think this is one of those things you only really need once you start using the features a lot. This happens often when working with lists. So much so I'm making a add on to the core list blocks to make the columns for me automatically.

Nick! I appreciate - and welcome - any bit of feedback you have. Honestly!
