In JQuery UI, I am trying to restrict draggable element into particular elements which are present inside the container (.container
).
Even I have tried with containment
as array of values it is working but in my case I will be unaware of the .container
height and width. Please suggest me which will the right approach to do this one.
<div class="container">
<div class="restricted-field-1">should be restricted here</div>
<div class="dragme">DRAG ME</div>
<div class="restricted-field-2">should be restricted here</div>
</div>
$(".dragme").draggable({
containment: ".container"
});

You can move the .container
div to wrap .dragme
, remove position: relative
of .container
and set following style changes.
body {
position:relative;
}
Modify as follows.
.container {
position: absolute;
height: 362px;
}
.restricted-field-2 {
top: 400px;
}
Here is the jsfiddle link.
Edited:
There are options in jquery draggable to set x-axis
and y-axis
positions for the containment and we need to calculate based on our requirement.
Here is the updated js fiddle link.

$(".dragme").draggable({
containment: ".mini"
});
.container{
position:relative;
width: 500px;
height: 400px;
background: #FFF;
}
.dragme{
width: 100px;
cursor: move;
background: black;
color:white;
text-align:center;
}
.restricted-field-1{
width:480px;
background: silver;
padding:10px;
user-select:none;
height: 20px;
}
.restricted-field-2{
position:absolute;
width:480px;
bottom:0;
padding:10px;

user-select:none;
height:20px;
}
.mini{
position: absolute;
top: 40px;
