jQWidgets jqxSortable deactivate Event

jQWidgets is a JavaScript framework for making web-based applications for PC and mobile devices. It is a very powerful, optimized, platform-independent, and widely supported framework. jqxSortable represents a jQuery plugin that allows you to reorder elements in an HTML list or div tags using the mouse.

The deactivate event is triggered when the sortable is stopped.

Syntax:

$('.jqxSortable').on('deactivate', function (){
    // Code
});
