React Gantt drag-n-drop

Hello,

We are currently developing an application based on Kendo React components.
We are wondering if the React-Gantt chart has the functionality to edit the data by drag-n-drop the same way it possible with JQuery-Gantt (see attachment).

Thanks in advance for your help.

 

Kind regards,
Sergei

Hello, David,

I completely understand how frustrating it is that the KendoReact Gantt currently doesn’t support drag-and-drop functionality. I checked our ticketing system to see if there were any workarounds successfully implemented that we could share, but unfortunately, none have been found so far. I also attempted to create a solution using KendoReact Drag & Drop, but it didn’t achieve the desired results.

We synched the feature request with our Product managers and we have planned some Gantt improvements in our 2026 Roadmap after November including the drag-and-drop.

Regards,
Filip

Hi,

We are converting an application from Kendo JQuery to Kendo React and this is a huge step backwards.

Are there any details of current workarounds while this feature is being implemented?

Thanks

David

The most frequently used features in popular Gantt Chart editors are:
- task start/end date changing (resize tasks from the corners)
- task movement (move tasks to different positions on the timeline)
- dependencies creating/deleting
- update tasks completion percentage

We wold like to see the listed above features in the Kendo React Gantt component as they are very important and usefull in our application (and we do believe in other interprise applications as well)

Hello,

The status `Under review` is a step back from 'Unplanned'. The status 'Under review' is for when we want to review if the request is feasible. The status 'Unplanned' is similar to 'Approved' which means we agree that we can do it, but have to plan it based on priorities.

This would really be appreciated :-) There are others in under review with less votes, so pretty please, could we make it to under review...?

Hello,

Currently, this is still in the review stage. We plan the features based on the community interest and for now, this only has two votes. We are monitoring the interest and will plan it accordingly.

Hi! Any news here? Should really be a standard feature. We really want to use this component, but are unable to do so without the drag-drop feature.

Hello, Sergei,

Currently, the KendoReact Gantt supports editing only via the edit form.

As this is a new component in our React offering we are actually listening for the community feedback and requests for new features.

I converted this to an official public feature request in our feedback portal as this is how we prioritize the request.

We will monitor the interest and plan it accordingly.

I also added your vote for convenience.

Stefan
