Docs - Block/Paragraph dragging
complete
Dean Phillips
I'd love the ability to highlight paragraph/sections and move them all at once like Coda, Notion and Wordpress Gutenburg allow:
I've found writing in Notion to be so fluid with rearranging docs and ideas because of this :)

The ability to drag and drop paragraph blocks is available in Docs!

I second this! Notion dragging blocks work so much better than Clickup. When I try to move blocks of text and images on Clickup and then scroll down to page to bring it further down, nothing happens.

+1 Awesome concept of using Headers effectively. You might also love this awesome responsive columns concept : https://clickup.canny.io/feature-requests/p/add-columns-to-docs-pages

Multi-select works like this on Coda + Notion:
Notion allows us to CMD + A to select the block and again to selection the whole thing (coda and Clickup don't)

Made some progress here, still more to come but hopefully this gets the ball rolling for you! https://dev-doc.clickup.com/p/ad-23377/release-2-50

Ivan Villa: Thanks for this. It seems that as currently implemented every line is treated as a separate section unaware of the header or list hierarchy that it's in. Thus if you move a parent heading or list item, subordinate items in the hierarchy don't come with it and get separated from their parents, disrupting the logic of the document. I'm not sure how this behavior is useful or desirable - perhaps it's a bug? A more intuitive and useful implementation would be to have sections roll up all text below in the hierarchy (whether bullets or heading level) the way that notion does. Is that part of the plan?
Ivan Villa
Josh Sommer: Hey Josh! We still have some more updates on the way for this. It's not perfect now, but will be rolling out more tweaks, especially around UX so it's a bit more predictable :)

Hey Dean! I won't close this just yet because we don't have support for Paragraphs yet, but we made a lot of out doc elements draggable :) https://dev-doc.clickup.com/p/ad-23377/release-2-50

Ivan Villa: Thanks man. Would be great if you could pass this on.
With Notion a great thing was being able to move multiple paragraphs/headlines at once with blocks.
When you also do CMD/CTR + A to select all, it would select all of the highlighted block, press it again and it does the entire doc.
Really really handy :)
Dean Phillips
Ivan Villa: Looks like being able to drag more than one block isn't possible. Really hope that's coming in the near future :)
Ivan Villa
Dean Phillips: Hey dean! We still have a list of tweaks and updates we are planning to add. We will get it in soon enough ;)
Dean Phillips
Ivan Villa: Thanks for often replying, man. Excited to see these docs tweaks/updates (as you've probably guessed haha)
