  We’ve got a grid using the group panel but i’d like to disable column reordering. I’ve been able to disable column re-ordering via allowDragging, but this also prevents dragging the column header to the group panel.

  Is there a solution that allows dragging to the group panel but prevents column re-ordering?

  Hi Erik,

  Yes, you can prevent the columns from re-ordering. You need to handle the draggingColumnOver event of the FlexGrid and cancel this event so that the column cannot be dropped:

  theGrid.draggingColumnOver.addHandler((s, e) => {
    e.cancel = true;
  });
  

  You can refer to the sample link below for reference:
