Issue Description

When using a grouped CollectionView with CanReorderItems="True" and CanMixGroups="True", users could not drag items into empty groups on iOS/MacCatalyst. The item would snap back to its original position instead of being placed in the target empty group. Additionally, group header count labels did not update after a successful reorder.

Root Cause

Two issues in the iOS UICollectionView interactive movement API:
No drop target for empty groups: UICollectionView has no cells in empty sections, so it cannot compute a valid proposedIndexPath for the drop. It falls back to returning originalIndexPath (the item's starting position), effectively preventing the move. The delegator's GetTargetIndexPathForMove override was not handling this fallback case.

Stale group headers after reorder: UICollectionView.EndInteractiveMovement() updates cell positions but does not trigger a refresh of supplementary views (group headers). As a result, header-bound data like item counts remained stale after drag-and-drop.

Description of Change:

ReorderableItemsViewDelegator / ReorderableItemsViewDelegator2 — GetTargetIndexPathForMove: When UICollectionView can't resolve a drop target in an empty group area, it falls back to proposedIndexPath == originalIndexPath. The fix detects this condition (when CanMixGroups is enabled) and redirects the drop to the nearest empty group using FindNearestEmptyGroup, which searches outward from the current section for the closest match.

ReorderableItemsViewController / ReorderableItemsViewController2 — HandleLongPress: After EndInteractiveMovement(), UICollectionView does not refresh supplementary views (group headers). Added a ReloadSections call wrapped in UIView.PerformWithoutAnimation so group header data (e.g. item counts) updates immediately after a reorder completes.

Issues Fixed

Fixes #12008

Additional context:

The issue was also reproduced on Android and has been addressed separately in a dedicated PR #31867

Tested the behaviour in the following platforms

  • Android
  • Windows
  • iOS
  • Mac

@SuthiYuvaraj could you please duplicate tests? The reason is that the PR agent needs them to validate and explore alternative fixes :)

Pull request overview

Fixes iOS/MacCatalyst grouped CollectionView drag-and-drop reordering so items can be dropped into empty groups, and ensures group header supplementary views (e.g., count labels) refresh after a reorder completes.

Changes:

  • Update GetTargetIndexPathForMove to handle UICollectionView’s fallback behavior when hovering over empty-group header areas and to better constrain target index paths.
  • Reload grouped sections after EndInteractiveMovement() so supplementary headers reflect updated data.
  • Add additional validation/clamping in MoveItem for grouped moves (section bounds, empty-group insertion index, row bounds).

This change adds iOS/MacCatalyst-specific behavior for dropping into empty groups and for refreshing group headers after reorder. There doesn’t appear to be an existing UI test covering drag-and-drop reordering into an empty group on iOS/MacCatalyst, so regressions here may go unnoticed. Consider adding an Appium UI test (similar to other CollectionView reordering tests) that creates an empty group and verifies the item moves into it and the header count updates.

In grouped reorders, toItemIndex is clamped using toList.Count before fromList.RemoveAt(fromItemIndex). When reordering within the same group (i.e., fromList and toList are the same instance) and the destination is clamped to toList.Count (append), the subsequent RemoveAt reduces the count and toList.Insert(toItemIndex, ...) can become out-of-range. Consider handling the ReferenceEquals(fromList, toList) case by adjusting/clamping the destination index after removal (or decrementing when moving forward) to guarantee 0 <= toItemIndex <= toList.Count at insert time.

ReloadSections is being called for the entire grouped CollectionView after every interactive movement. For large numbers of groups this can be expensive and may cause unnecessary header re-creation. If the goal is to refresh item-count labels, consider tracking the source/destination sections during MoveItem and reloading only those sections (or otherwise limiting the reloaded section set).

Issue: #12008 - CollectionView Drag and Drop Reordering Can't Drop in Empty Group
PR: #34151 - [iOS] CollectionView: Fix drag-and-drop reordering into empty groups
Platforms Affected: iOS, MacCatalyst
Files Changed: 4 implementation, 2 test

Key Findings

  • The linked issue was originally reported and verified on Android, but the PR explicitly scopes the fix to iOS/MacCatalyst and notes Android was handled separately in PR [Android] CollectionView: Fix drag-and-drop reordering into empty groups #31867.
  • The PR changes both iOS handler stacks: legacy Items/ and current iOS/MacCatalyst Items2/, which is appropriate because reorder code exists in both iOS handler paths.
  • PR description says the fix addresses two behaviors: dropping into empty groups and refreshing group header counts after reorder completes.
  • New UI coverage exists for Issue12008 in both HostApp and Shared UITests, so Gate can attempt full verification on iOS.
  • Review feedback highlighted three edge areas to watch during validation: same-group append/reinsert bounds, lack of prior UI coverage, and whether reloading all grouped sections is broader than necessary.
  • No prior agent phase output was present in CustomAgentLogsTmp/PRState/34151/PRAgent/; only PR labels indicated an earlier agent review had run.

Edge Cases From Discussion

  • Reordering within the same group and appending to the end may require destination-index adjustment after removal.
  • Header refresh currently reloads grouped sections after movement; reviewers questioned whether limiting reloads to affected sections would be preferable.
  • Test coverage should verify both the empty-group move itself and the updated header count label.

Code Review Findings

Critical issues

Grouped same-section reorder can produce an invalid insert index

  • Files:

    • src/Controls/src/Core/Handlers/Items/iOS/ReorderableItemsViewController.cs
    • src/Controls/src/Core/Handlers/Items2/iOS/ReorderableItemsViewController2.cs
  • Problem:
    GetTargetIndexPathForMove() now deliberately returns row == targetGroupItemCount when dropping at the end of a non-empty group. In MoveItem(), toItemIndex is clamped before removing the source item. When the move stays in the same group (fromList and toList are the same list) and the user drags forward to the end, RemoveAt(fromItemIndex) shrinks the list first, so the previously valid append index can become out of range.

    Example: move the first item in [A, B, C] to the end of the same group.

    • target index is clamped to 3
    • remove index 0, then the list count becomes 2
    • Insert(3, item) is now invalid

    That means this fix can introduce a regression for same-group reordering while solving the empty-group case.

  • Recommendation:
    Handle ReferenceEquals(fromList, toList) explicitly. Recompute or adjust the destination index after removal, or decrement it when moving forward, then clamp again against the post-removal count before calling Insert.

Looks good

  • The empty-group drop targeting logic is mirrored in both Items/ and Items2/, which keeps the legacy and current iOS handlers aligned.
  • Reloading grouped sections after interactive movement addresses the stale header-count symptom described in the PR.
  • The PR now includes dedicated UI regression coverage for issue #12008, which is a meaningful improvement over the original version of the PR.

Additional Notes

  • PR status is currently not merge-ready because required checks are still failing (maui-pr, Build Analysis, and related build jobs). I did not investigate CI failures here because that is outside the scope of pr-finalize.
  • Recommendation: fix the same-group reorder index bug first, then re-run validation and update the PR description with the required NOTE block plus the new test coverage.

Issue: #12008 - CollectionView Drag and Drop Reordering Can't Drop in Empty Group
PR: #34151 - [iOS] CollectionView: Fix drag-and-drop reordering into empty groups
Platforms Affected: iOS, MacCatalyst
Files Changed: 5 implementation, 2 test

Key Findings

  • Two distinct bugs fixed: (1) can't drop into empty groups due to UICollectionView fallback returning originalIndexPath, (2) stale group headers after reorder because UICollectionView.EndInteractiveMovement() doesn't refresh supplementary views
  • Fix applies to both Items/ (deprecated iOS) and Items2/ (current iOS/Mac) handler stacks, ensuring parity
  • New shared ReorderableItemsViewExtensions class in Items/ namespace holds GetTargetIndexPathForGroupedMove and FindNearestEmptyGroup — Items2/ imports this via using Microsoft.Maui.Controls.Handlers.Items;
  • The prior Copilot review flag about the ReferenceEquals(fromList, toList) index-clamping bug has been addressedMoveItem now adjusts toItemIndex after RemoveAt when source/dest are the same list
  • The prior review flag about full ReloadSections being expensive has been addressed — now tracks _lastMoveSourceSection / _lastMoveDestinationSection and reloads only those two sections
  • HasInteractivelyMoved flag guards against false-positive empty-group redirect at drag start (when original==proposed before any movement)
  • FindNearestEmptyGroup searches outward (±1, ±2...) from currentSection — returns nearest empty group in either direction
  • PR labels: s/agent-reviewed, s/agent-approved, s/agent-gate-passed, s/agent-fix-pr-picked — prior agent review complete
  • Gate result: ✅ PASSED — tests fail without fix, pass with fix
  • Prior Copilot review comments are all marked outdated (addressed in subsequent commits)

Outstanding Observations

  • ReorderableItemsViewExtensions lives in Microsoft.Maui.Controls.Handlers.Items namespace but is consumed by Items2/ via cross-namespace using — minor coupling concern
  • When proposedIndexPath.Row >= targetGroupItemCount, the extension redirects to the NEXT section if it's empty — this is a convenience/UX choice but may surprise users who intended to append to the current section
  • Test uses App.DragAndDrop("Item A1", "Empty Group") — relies on header AutomationId matching; the HostApp sets the header text to the group name but no explicit AutomationId is assigned to the header template items

Selected Fix: PR's Reason: Gate-verified; correctly addresses both bugs (empty group redirect + stale headers); no public API changes required; shared extension class consolidates logic between Items/ and Items2/ stacks; targeted section reload more efficient than full reload alternatives; HasInteractivelyMoved is a clean boolean guard; FindNearestEmptyGroup outward search is O(groups) and elegant. All 8 alternatives either require public API changes, touch more files/classes invasively, use heavier reload strategies, bypass UIKit native animation, or introduce fragile side-channel tracking.fix

Summary

PR #34151 fixes two related bugs in iOS/MacCatalyst grouped CollectionView drag-and-drop reordering: (1) items cannot be dropped into empty groups, and (2) group header supplementary views display stale data after a reorder. The fix is well-targeted, applies to both the current Items2/ and legacy Items/ handler stacks, and introduces no public API changes. All 8 try-fix alternatives also passed the test, but the PR's own implementation is the best choice.

Root Cause

  1. Empty group drop failure: UICollectionView has no cells in empty sections, so GetTargetIndexPathForMove receives proposedIndexPath == originalIndexPath as a fallback — the system cannot suggest a valid drop destination. The old delegator code treated this as a no-op, causing the item to snap back.
  2. Stale group headers: UICollectionView.EndInteractiveMovement() repositions cells but does not reload supplementary views (section headers). Count labels bound to the group's Count property remained stale until the next full reload.
  3. Same-group index clamping: When reordering within the same group, toItemIndex was clamped before RemoveAt(fromItemIndex). For the ReferenceEquals(fromList, toList) case (same list), the subsequent RemoveAt shrank the list, making the clamped index potentially out-of-range for Insert.

Fix Quality

Strengths:

  • Correct and complete: Addresses all three root causes in a single PR.
  • HasInteractivelyMoved guard: Prevents false empty-group redirect at drag start when original == proposed is coincidentally true before any movement. Clean boolean approach.
  • FindNearestEmptyGroup outward search: O(sections) search is appropriate and predictable — finds the nearest empty group in either direction from the item's current section.
  • Targeted ReloadSections: Tracks _lastMoveSourceSection and _lastMoveDestinationSection in MoveItem and reloads only those two sections. More efficient than any full-reload alternative.
  • ReferenceEquals same-group fix: The post-RemoveAt index adjustment (toItemIndex-- when moving forward in same list, plus final Math.Max/Min clamp) is correct and defensive.
  • Shared extension class: ReorderableItemsViewExtensions in Items/ namespace (imported by Items2/) cleanly consolidates the duplicated logic, reducing divergence risk between the two stacks.
  • No public API changes: Unlike attempts 5 and 6, the PR requires no new entries in PublicAPI.Unshipped.txt.
  • Test coverage: A new UI test (Issue12008) covers the primary scenario (drag from non-empty group into empty group with status label verification). #if TEST_FAILS_ON_WINDOWS && TEST_FAILS_ON_ANDROID correctly scopes the test to iOS/MacCatalyst.

Minor concerns (non-blocking):

  • ReorderableItemsViewExtensions lives in the Microsoft.Maui.Controls.Handlers.Items namespace but is consumed by Items2/. This creates a minor cross-namespace dependency. A Handlers.iOS.Shared or Handlers.Items.Shared namespace would be cleaner long-term, but it's a minor style point.
  • FindNearestEmptyGroup returns the nearest empty group regardless of user drag direction. Attempt 3 (direction-aware scan) is slightly more intuitive when multiple empty groups exist, but the outward search is simpler and correct for the common case.
  • The extension file's GetTargetIndexPathForGroupedMove has a branch where proposedIndexPath.Row >= targetGroupItemCount redirects to the NEXT section if it's empty. This behavior (redirecting cross-section when a row is out of bounds) may surprise users who intended to append to the current section, but it's a corner case.

Try-Fix comparison verdict: The PR's fix is the cleanest implementation. The 8 alternatives all passed but have trade-offs: heavier reloads (attempts 1, 3, 5, 6), fragile side-channels (attempt 4), public API impact (attempts 5, 6), animation bypass risk (attempts 7, 8), or less efficient reload strategies (attempts 1-4). The UICollectionViewDragDelegate approach proposed in Round 3 cross-pollination is architecturally superior for new code but would be a major refactor of the existing gesture-based pipeline — outside scope of this fix.

### Issue Description

When using a grouped CollectionView with CanReorderItems="True" and
CanMixGroups="True", users could not drag items into empty groups on
iOS/MacCatalyst. The item would snap back to its original position
instead of being placed in the target empty group. Additionally, group
header count labels did not update after a successful reorder.

### Root Cause

Two issues in the iOS UICollectionView interactive movement API:
**No drop target for empty groups:** UICollectionView has no cells in
empty sections, so it cannot compute a valid proposedIndexPath for the
drop. It falls back to returning originalIndexPath (the item's starting
position), effectively preventing the move. The delegator's
GetTargetIndexPathForMove override was not handling this fallback case.

**Stale group headers after reorder:**
UICollectionView.EndInteractiveMovement() updates cell positions but
does not trigger a refresh of supplementary views (group headers). As a
result, header-bound data like item counts remained stale after
drag-and-drop.

### Description of Change:

**ReorderableItemsViewDelegator / ReorderableItemsViewDelegator2** —
GetTargetIndexPathForMove: When UICollectionView can't resolve a drop
target in an empty group area, it falls back to proposedIndexPath ==
originalIndexPath. The fix detects this condition (when CanMixGroups is
enabled) and redirects the drop to the nearest empty group using
FindNearestEmptyGroup, which searches outward from the current section
for the closest match.

ReorderableItemsViewController / ReorderableItemsViewController2 —
HandleLongPress: After EndInteractiveMovement(), UICollectionView does
not refresh supplementary views (group headers). Added a ReloadSections
call wrapped in UIView.PerformWithoutAnimation so group header data
(e.g. item counts) updates immediately after a reorder completes.

### Issues Fixed
Fixes #12008 

### Additional context:
The issue was also reproduced on Android and has been addressed
separately in a dedicated PR [
#31867](#31867)

### Tested the behaviour in the following platforms
- [ ] Android
- [ ] Windows
- [x] iOS
- [x] Mac
