Scene widget: allow ordering the scenes list - #2945
Conversation
Scenes in the dashboard scene widget were always displayed in alphabetical order, forcing users to rename their scenes to change the display order. A new "Custom order" option is available in the widget configuration. When enabled, the selected scenes can be reordered with drag & drop (same pattern as the devices widget) and are displayed on the dashboard in that order. Widgets without this option keep the current alphabetical behavior. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01YXRz5JiaM9N42djviseBRu

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The new custom-order option works for pointer and touch interaction, but keyboard-only users cannot currently reorder scenes. The change is otherwise mergeable with explicit owner awareness and a follow-up to provide an accessible reordering path. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Add keyboard controls for scene reordering.
When custom order is enabled, render focusable Move up and Move down buttons for each scene with accessible names and disabled boundary states. Keep drag-and-drop for pointer input.

Not changed, on purpose.
Keyboard reordering controls would be a genuine improvement, but they are a new UI affordance rather than a fix to this PR: this list is a copy of the DeviceListWithDragAndDrop pattern the devices widget has used for years, with the same drag handle and the same lack of keyboard controls. Adding Move up / Move down buttons to the scene list only would leave the two widgets inconsistent, and doing it in both is a change of its own — with its own translation keys and styles — well beyond "let the scenes be ordered".
Worth opening as a separate accessibility issue covering both drag & drop lists.

@Pierre-Gilles, agreed. The keyboard reordering gap affects both SceneListWithDragAndDrop and DeviceListWithDragAndDrop. Changing only the new scene list would make the widget interactions inconsistent.
This PR can keep the established drag-and-drop pattern. A separate accessibility issue should cover keyboard reordering, shared interaction behavior, translations, and styles for both lists.
Would you like me to open that follow-up issue?

Learning: In Gladys dashboard widgets, `front/src/components/drag-and-drop/SceneListWithDragAndDrop.jsx` intentionally follows the established `DeviceListWithDragAndDrop` drag-and-drop interaction pattern. Keyboard reordering is an accessibility enhancement that should be designed consistently for both lists in a separate change, including any required translations and styles.

Learning: In `front/src/routes/scene/edit-scene/actions/ConditionWhile.jsx`, the Repeat header uses a focusable `<div>` with `role="button"`, `tabIndex="0"`, `aria-expanded={!repeatCollapsed}`, and `ConditionWhile.handleRepeatKeyDown`. The handler toggles the section on Enter and Space, with `preventDefault()` for Space.

Stale comment
Looks good to merge.
This matches the forum request and stays backward compatible: existing scene widgets keep alphabetical order, and custom order is an opt-in (
scene_custom_order) stored in the box config. The DND list followsDeviceListWithDragAndDrop(includinggetDragAndDropBackendfor touch),SceneBoxre-sorts the API result (which is alwaysorder_by: name) usingbox.scenes, and the new key is allowed on the strict dashboard Joi schema with a create test.No new device categories/types. Not high-risk (optional dashboard box flag + front-only UX). No philosophy concern that needs a separate human review.
Non-blocking notes:
- The new list has no row
key, same as the devices widget. That works with the currentuseDragfactory (empty deps + index identity). Do not add a selectorkeywithout also passing[index]touseDrag, oritem.indexgoes stale after a reorder.- Edit mode keeps the multi Select chips and the DND list. The devices widget uses add-only Select + DND; this is a bit redundant but it keeps add/remove familiar.
- Keyboard move buttons and extra
Dashboard.build().validate()cases are not required here — devices DND has neither, anddashboard.createalready exercises the new schema key.- Front test/build, Cypress, and Docker are green on this SHA.

Each SceneRow is now keyed by the scene selector instead of relying on its position in the list. Because a keyed row keeps its component instance across a reorder, the useDrag spec is given [index] as its dependency array: without it react-dnd would memoize the spec of the first render and the item() closure would report a stale index, so a drop would move the wrong scene. Autofix-Pass: 1

Looks good to merge.
Re-reviewed e3c637c after the follow-up that pairs key={selectedSceneOption.value} with useDrag(..., [index]). That is the correct pairing: a stable row identity without refreshing the drag spec would have left item.index stale. useDrop stays as an object spec, so it rememoizes every render and the drop target index stays current.
The feature stays backward compatible: existing widgets keep API alphabetical order until scene_custom_order is opted in. The DND list follows the devices-widget pattern (including getDragAndDropBackend for touch), SceneBox re-sorts the order_by: name API result using box.scenes, and the new key is allowed on the strict dashboard Joi schema with a create test.
No new device categories/types. Not high-risk (optional dashboard box flag + front UX). No philosophy concern that needs a separate human review.
Non-blocking notes:
- Edit mode still keeps the multi Select chips and the DND list. The devices widget uses add-only Select + DND; this is a bit redundant but add/remove stays familiar.
- Keyboard Move up/down and a dedicated
Dashboard.build().validate()suite are still out of scope (same as the devices widget, anddashboard.createalready exercises the new key). - Front test/build, Cypress, Docker, and server lint are green on this SHA. The current Server test failure is an unrelated DuckDB purge flake (
expected 10 to equal 11on “should purge DuckDB states…”), not this change.

Description
Scenes in the dashboard "Scenes" widget were always displayed in alphabetical order, so the only way to change the display order was to rename the scenes.
This PR adds a Custom order option in the scene widget configuration:
Implementation details:
front/src/components/drag-and-drop/SceneListWithDragAndDrop.jsx(new): reorderable list of the selected scenes, built withreact-dndfollowing the exact same pattern asDeviceListWithDragAndDropused by the devices widget (so it also works on touch devices).front/src/components/boxs/scene/EditSceneBox.jsx: newscene_custom_orderswitch, the drag & drop list, and the selected options are now kept in the configured order when the custom order is enabled. When the switch is turned on, the current alphabetical order is used as the starting point of the custom order.front/src/components/boxs/scene/SceneBox.jsx: the scenes returned by the API (sorted alphabetically) are re-ordered following thescenesarray of the box configuration whenscene_custom_orderistrue.server/models/dashboard.js: the box configuration schema is strict, so the newscene_custom_orderboolean key had to be allowed. A test covering a scene box with a custom order was added toserver/test/lib/dashboard/dashboard.create.test.js.en.json,fr.jsonandde.json.This pull request was created by an automated Claude Code run.
