Drag handle positioned absolutely outside of the container.

[shutup7742]

Hi, I have this issue where if I create a sortable list with a handle for each item and I position this handle using position absolute outside of the container I am not able to sort the list using the handle, but if I use the same handle and position it to be on the edge of the container, within the bounds of the container, I am able to sort the list. So this is not an issue with the handle being positioned absolute but an issue of the handle being set to outside of the bounds of its container. Is there a fix for this issue or has anyone come up with a workaround for the issue?

I got the same issue. Several sortable lists are in the same group within single container. Code is here http://819.ru/_tmp/pledit/test-sortablejs.html

Any news or consideration about this feature?

Same issue here.

While dragging and moving over absolute positioned handles of other items, it does not treat the handle as part of the item.
But it does treat the handle as part of the list, as the item being dragged is moved to the top of the list.

Could hack my way to make it look like the handle is positioned outside the list, but would be neat if this works out of the box.

I also struggle with this issue, but was not able to hack my way around it.
