Re-ordering iterated valid files

[ghost]

Is there a good way to modify the positions/index of the files iterated from interface.getFiles() so that the files are uploaded in the order selected by users? I would like users to visually drag and drop files to re-order them so I need to have the re-ordered changes bound to the view.

I tried to re-order the files by directly setting the DropletModel of a given index with a different DropletModel, but that didn't work: $scope.interface.getFiles($scope.interface.FILE_TYPES.VALID)[index] = data;

We'd need to modify the code where the files are appended to the form – although I'm not entirely sure on the best approach for this currently. I'll have a think 👍
