[Angular] How to Disable Multi-Drag Functionality in Bryntum TaskBoard

[harish22]

Hi Team,

I’m using the Angular version of Bryntum TaskBoard.

Currently, users are able to drag multiple tasks in two ways:

i) By selecting multiple tasks using the mouse drag (box selection).

ii) By holding Ctrl (or Cmd) and clicking multiple tasks to drag together.

I want to completely disable multi-drag functionality so that only one task can be dragged at a time.

Is there a configuration or recommended approach to achieve this?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks Mats.

The reason I’m asking these questions is that I’ve occasionally encountered persistent console errors when using multi-drag. It doesn’t happen every time, but when it does, it often causes the entire screen to freeze. This seems to be triggered during multi-drag interactions.

I’ve used try-catch blocks around all of my local functions, but the issue is not being caught in my application code. The console error seems to be thrown directly from the taskboard.module.js file, which makes it difficult to handle or suppress the error from our side.

I’ve attached the error screenshot for your reference.
Please let me know if there any workaround to avoid this freezing issue.

Thanks again for your help!

Hey harish22,

How can we reproduce it? I've tried reproducing it here https://bryntum.com/products/taskboard/examples/task-drag/ and it seems to be working pretty smoothly for me. Could you please provide the steps that we can follow to reproduce the issue in that demo?
