Kanban - multiselect & context menu

Webix JS
1

Two Kanban questions:

  1. Is it possible to configure to allow multi-select of items?
  2. Is it possible to define a context menu on (a) columns, and (b) items?

thanks

Hello,

  1. You can enable multiselect within kanban lists. For example:
{ view:"kanbanlist", status:"new", multiselect: true }

kanban.getSelectedId() returns an array of selected ids.

However, drag-n-drop of multiple items will work only within a list. If case of drag-n-drop to different list, only one item will be dragged. We will add multiselect support in the next version. If you need the solution ASAP, please open a ticket in Members’ area.

  1. Please check the following demo:

Many thanks Maria.

I can’t see any documentation on the header of a kanbanlist. Can this also support context menu? And can it be styled (e.g. change colour, text size)?

You can use Skin Builder to customize colors:

The package generated via Skin Builder will contain the new webix.css.

Kanban consists of accordion items that includes “header” and “body” which is Kanbanlist.

To listen to context event on header you need to set onContext for accordion item:

Thanks, but I don’t think this answers quite what I meant. I think the skin builder let’s us change the whole look and feel, e.g. for all headers. Can I customise an individual one? So a single kanban list to have a header with different colour/text size from the rest, and even contain HTML content rahter than a single label?

You can set className for the view via “css” property and define style you need.

Please check an example:

“Backlog” and “Done” accordion columns contain “css” property in their configuration. And there are two css rules .backlog .webix_accordionitem_header{} and .done .webix_accordionitem_header{}

Custom html can be easily set in header property - please check “Done” column header in the example.

Thank you; I appreciate all your help while I evaluate webix - it looks great! I’ve got a few more questions on Kanban, but will start a new discussion so it’s more useful for others.
