Cannot Drag custom components

See original GitHub issue

Hi,

We are trying to create custom components and find the components created cannot be dragged.

Steps to re-create

http://formio.github.io/formio.js/app/examples/customcomponent.html
Try creating 2 check box components
Try dragging one on top of other
Builder will show the change, but render component does not show the change
In the image below, the render and builder component shows different component order

What is happening in WebFromBuilder.js ln: 938 if (element.component) returns as null for a custom component upon drag after initial setup.

Please help. Thanks

yes, but if a form has custom components, it really affects the layout . Is there a fix for this? We have worked out a solution by appending the below code as last line in the build function to fix this. Please let us know if there be a better solution

this.element.component = this;

Thanks
