It should stop even when the physical cursor moves beyond. In other words, the dragged item should be confined to the area occupied by existing playlist items.
Here's a screen capture in Firefix 2.0.0.7. I see a medium gray rectancle with light gray border, then the transparent copy of the highlighted item, all sitting on top of the item that gets highlighted as you drag over it. Looks like the transparent copy gets shifted to the left as it's dragged. One other nice thing I just noticed about the Netflix interface is that as you drag an item over others, the underlying items become less visible, rather than the one you're dragging. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: 2007-09-28_024146.jpg | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3441| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- JJZolx Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=37848 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
