Description

Hi everyone,
I want to implement port reordering inside a node. Can I make it clicking a port and dragging it?
After I've been reading the documentation I've not found any solution. Any thoughts?
Kind regards
The purpose of this issue is to write a similar tool to this that would work with all built-in port layouts.
A possible feature list:
- ability to change order of ports within a single group
- ability to move port from a group to another group
- ability to move port from one element to another element

Research direction
Start with the elementTools area and the linked CodePen example, then review discussion 1717 for the original requirements. Compare the example with all built-in port layouts and define how dragging should reorder ports within a group, move them between groups, and move them between elements. Done means a similar tool works across those layouts.
