Problem: How to drag and drop in Service Portal Designer?

Inside a custom scope, I did the back-end of my app, now, I wanted to move to the front end and I decided to use the Service Portal.

So, I created a new page and clicked on Edit in page designer, and then I started to drag a container to the blanck canvas but it didnt let me.

While I'm trying to drag my mouse pointer changes to a cant pointer.

How can I start drag and dropping layouts and widgets in this portal?

More info:

+ I'm using Instabul.

+ If I try to modify a demo page the portal lets me do it.

HI,



i faced simillar problem couple of times.



make sure scope of the page, widget and current application while you do drag n drop are same.



also make sure you select correct portal which is in current scope.

also try to drag n drop couple of times.



another alternative is to open the page in "page editor" instead of designer

there you have option of new container.

The Page Editor approach worked for me. After I added that initial container, the page designer let me do the drag and drop again.



I'm guessing this is a bug, because all my scopes were the same from the start.



rossipatel Thank you!




yupp.. seems like a bug. it lets you do things as usual once you add that first container. wierd!


Thanks Rushit,



I was facing the same issue and adding container from page editor worked .
