Safari Browser: Drag Preview Element not visible, causes confusion while dragging.

See original GitHub issue

Problem:

In Safari browser when an element is dragged, the drag preview is not displayed. It works fine in all other browsers i.e. Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Edge, IE11. Problem is only with Safari browser.

Safari version 12.1.2 on Mac Mojave 10.14.6

JSBin/JSFiddle demonstrating the problem:

Providing a Video Demo since the application is not yet deployed. The video shows a comparison of the experience in Chrome vs Safari.

I am using the latest 1.10.1 version of Sortable.js

I have already tried various options like dataTransfer.setDragImage but none of the solutions work.

Request yout to please provide some insights as to what might be going wrong / Is this something that needs to be fixed in the library ?

@kcak11 I tried the forceFallback option, it worked, no problem

Unfortunately, in my case on Chrome & Safari, the drag-n-drop is completely broken (on both browsers) when I use the forceFallback: true option.

One thing to note here is that the elements under drag-n-drop are placed in an iframe in a display:flex layout. Does that make any difference in Safari ?
