Is there a plugin for drap&drop elements exactly like in Notion?

Help
1

I’ve searched this question and it has been asked, but couldn’t find what I was looking for. I need drag & drop or in order words reordering of text blocks exactly like in Notion. In fact this feature is why I still can’t drop Notion, because I reorder things a lot in my TODO list and daily planner.

Obisidian has reordering in Outliner, but it’s not that good, it works only for a list items and only with a keyboard.

How it works in Notion:

  • you can drag & drop and reorder any block
  • to any place within a document
  • with a mouse cursor or a finger in a smartphone

Questions:

  1. Is there such plugin? Not a partial replacement, but exactly like in Notion?

  2. Do you think this’s doable to do in a plugin (or there are architectural limits to that)? Thanks!

I’ve been looking for that feature too. That’s the main reason I still use Notion. To be able to drag entire paragraph help me to write down what I think and then reorder.

I’ve been told that there are:
‘Move line up’
‘Move line down’
actions which work exactly like I want, but it’s only a keyboard feature.

This feature would be awesome. +1. I still do most of my work in notion because of this. Rearranging rows seems easy with the keyboard, but it just takes too long to move things up and down.

Yes, the Outliner plugin has this feature. However, only for list items, so I suppose that counts as:

Would anyone be interested in collaborating on a plugin to implement this kind of functionality?

I´m interested in this feature as well

Outliner plugin does this only with lists and even that does not work perfectly like in Notion

Same here, waiting for this feature almost 4 years…
In addition to drag lists vertically, I’d like to drag & drop images as well and any block horizontally as well, make columns by drag them, specify as Notion.

Obsidian rocks with it’s bio-directional linking system.
Notion shines with it’s aesthetics.

I find myself moving back and forward between those two every half year…

Just lists? Not even for tasks too?

Really hoping for this feature too.

Looking forward for this feature too.

Really missing this feature, not sure if this topic is followed by the devs, better check the feature request

  1. Did you folks got something to manage this missing feature?
  2. If not, would be somebody commited to even pay a programmer to do such a plugin?

I’m not a programmer, but I saw there are on fiverr.com, who claim they made obsidian plugins.
I’m interested too in this feature and if we can share the cost it would be greater. :slight_smile:

Thanks,

There are two outline plugins. This one is outliner.md

Adds drag and drop for blocks among other things. You can drag up and down and across notes. I wanted that easy drag and drop into different notes ability. To bad it started working slow for me so I disabled it. I think I had too many plugins installed anyway. If this is a make or brake feature then give this a try.
