ERDs don’t have the 3 dots to drag and drop rows and columns. How can I move rows/columns in ERDs?

 

I would like to know this as well. Would be a very useful feature to rearrange complex diagrams. Now I need to manually add a new row, copy the contents and remove the old row


hi @Daniel Vera and @iGuido 

 

Sorry to hear about your frustrations with this diagramming tool. I checked with our product team and they confirm this is expected behavior, and not a bug. There is no drag-and-drop option available. The team is aware of this and it is on the product backlog.  As to when or whether this will be fixed, I have no answer, I’m afraid. 

 

The only workaround right now is a manual copy/paste. I hope this gives you some clarity. 

Cheers.

 

 


I would also like this feature, please.


I have found that trying to use this tool that’s created for account/project managers for data is not even close to a timesaver.  Unfortunately, my company switched from lucid (WAY BETTER FOR DATA!).  Even doing something as simple as removing a row takes minutes (still trying to figure out how to do so).  I’m still working on finding a “better way.”  Not being able to delete anything other than the whole diagram, is a bug!  I couldn’t even remove the last row I created and had to redo the whole ERD.  Don’t add an extra row, because it wouldn’t even let me undo w/a ctrl+z :(  


Is this still on the backlog? ​@ElvaMiro how does copy/paste solve this problem as a work around? I just want to move a row up to the top of the ERD


Hi everyone,

Thanks for reaching out and sharing your thoughts! I understand how useful this feature would be, and I appreciate your patience.

 

At the moment, there’s no update—the ability to drag and drop to reorder rows in an ERD is still not available. While this request is on our product team’s backlog, it’s not currently scheduled for development in the immediate future.

 

I know this isn’t the most seamless solution, but I truly appreciate your understanding. I’ll make sure to update this thread if there are any changes or updates from the team.
