I’m starting to have scenes with around ten actions, or even more. When I reach the eleventh, I tell myself « Ah I could add that…, but I’d need to put it in second position. » At the moment, we have to delete actions in order to add one and re-enter them. If we had the ability to move them up or down in the same way as the boxes when editing the dashboard, that would be great. ---

I don’t have a vote left, but yes, I agree — that would simplify complex scenes when you want to add an action. ---

With @_Will_71 and @lmilcent, that makes 12 votes. I didn’t think there would be that many. ---

I don’t think you can count the « fake » votes It would be a mess otherwise ^^. I think it’s better to prioritize those votes by removing them and revoting like @_Will_71 did 🙂 ---

> [@spenceur](#): > > I think it’s better to prioritize these votes by removing some and revoting like @_Will_71 did 🙂 Exactly, I advise everyone to do a little « review » of their votes to re-prioritize them. Removing less crucial features to put the vote on another one helps a lot 😉 To see your votes, just go to « My votes »: [Demande de fonctionnalités - Gladys Assistant community](https://community.gladysassistant.com/c/feature-requests/43/l/latest?state=my_votes) The number of votes per person is intentionally limited, otherwise everyone would vote for everything and we’d be back to square one: impossible to prioritize 😃 ---

To make sure we’re talking about the same thing, when we talk about moving an action up or down. For you an action is : ![Screenshot 2023-01-23 at 21.09.23](https://gladys-assistant-community.b-cdn.net/uploads/default/original/2X/e/e5cd4136661b721d55addcf26a15b5022f388b88.png) Or this : ![Screenshot 2023-01-23 at 21.09.26](https://gladys-assistant-community.b-cdn.net/uploads/default/original/2X/c/c9b25e8b2bb60c99024cbde803f7a790107982c5.png) If it’s the 1st option, the goal would be to move an action from one « big » box to another « big » box, so I understand the use of a drag-and-drop library. If it’s the 2nd option, I would rather see an « arrow » system to move the actions. And ---

For my part, I have only one action per block, so I’d say solution 2. ---

Personally, I’d say the first. For a house-check scenario, I request the latest status of the openings; there are about ten of them in the same box. If I forgot an action before checking the status, I have to re-enter everything. Ultimately, both solutions can be justified. ---

@Tlse-vins I would say your case is also number 2, because you want to add an action box before your status-check action box. Case #1 would be to extract one of your verification actions into another action box! Anyway, that’s how I understand it. ---

> [@Lokkye](#): > > If it’s the first option, the goal will be to move an action from a « big » box to another « big » box, so I understand the use of a drag-and-drop lib. It’s a bit of both for me: you need to be able to move actions via drag and drop between action blocks, and you need to be able to create/delete action blocks. If you want to work on it, I’ll dump here the state of my research since I’ve already started experimenting on the topic 🙂 I tested all these things (originally it’s for the dashboard to re-organize the boxes Trello-style): - React DND : [React DnD](https://react-dnd.github.io/react-dnd/about) - Trello example with React-DND: [React Beautiful Dnd trello example - CodeSandbox](https://codesandbox.io/s/react-beautiful-dnd-trello-example-ohxsi?file=/src/components/dndEditor/dndEditor.js:2460-2475) - Preact drag and drop: [Preact Drag and Drop - CodeSandbox](https://codesandbox.io/s/64829x0m93?file=/src/index.js) - Drag and drop editor: [https://codepen.io/erikdevos/pen/ZYNWoR](https://codepen.io/erikdevos/pen/ZYNWoR) React-DND looks really good, supports multiple drag-and-drop input sources (mouse on PC and touch on mobile), and it works very well with Preact — I think it’s a good solution! ---

I just edited a scene with more than 20 actions and removed some. But as a result I have empty blocks remaining. 2 ideas: - have an X to delete empty or filled blocks. - remove empty blocks with reorganization of the blocks and renumbering when saving. ---

And as a complement: add a « + » to be able to add a step between two actions. [Next page](https://community.gladysassistant.com/t/pouvoir-deplacer-une-action-vers-le-haut-ou-le-bas-dans-les-scenes/7325.md?page=2)
