Instructions

Generics

  1. Right now there’s no draggable depency. But if you click and hold your mouse down and drag it into another itens in the same column, all of them it’ll selected.
  2. The title and content background are both blue (#0052c0), but you can change those using the content-class and title-class props.
  3. By default the height isn’t set, but it has an overflow-y CSS property, so if you use the height prop, you’ll have a vertical scroll inside each panel.
  4. If you pass anything other than top to movedItemLocation, the item after moved will go to the bottom.
  5. The content key should be an unique key inside each array of objects (left-items / right-items).

Actions

From top to bottom:

  1. The first button moves all the left items to the right.
  2. The second button moves all the selected left items to the right.
  3. The third button moves all the right items to the left.
  4. The fourth button moves all the selected right items to the left.
  5. The fifth button unselect all the selected items from all columns (left and right).
