Android GridView reorder elements via Drag and Drop

Question

I have a GridView in an application I am working on. I would like to be able to reorder the items in the GridView via drag-and-drop. I have found lots of help for ListViews

Answer 1

Google recently released a few code labs a few months back. https://codelabs.developers.google.com/codelabs/android-training-adaptive-layouts/index.html?index=..%2F..%2Fandroid-training#0

You can check the solution to it here https://github.com/google-developer-training/android-fundamentals-apps-v2/tree/master/MaterialMe-Resource

They make grid layout with movable cards that can be dragged and dropped anywhere in the layout using the itemTouchHandler.

The more detailed code on how to do the drag and drop is here You need to look into the Task 3: Make your CardView swipeable, movable, and clickable section
