Thank you for the video, it helps understanding better the issue. That's a pretty weird bug though, that's the first I see it mentioned and it's not happening here. Could you do
$ journalctl -f and see if any error is displayed when triggering the issue? is the issue specific to that folder or does it happen with any bookmark you add? also what sort of pointing device do you use to do the click? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1919440 Title: Mouse cursor gets stuck in "drag and drop" mode Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: 1) Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS 3) I just expect to open a folder in my files. 4) This only happens when I try to open specific folders. First I open the files menu. Then I click on one of my 'saved favorites' on the left side in the displayed vertical list. they are between 'trash' and 'other locations'. Whenever I click on these directories, which I put there to have fast access to them, the cursor just makes a drag and drop. So I cannot really use them anymore. Only happens to these folders I put there, does not happen when I click on home or downloads etc. ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 Package: nautilus 1:3.36.3-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.8.0-44.50~20.04.1-generic 5.8.18 Uname: Linux 5.8.0-44-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.16 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: skip CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Wed Mar 17 10:44:17 2021 ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/nautilus GsettingsChanges: b'org.gnome.nautilus.window-state' b'sidebar-width' b'161' b'org.gnome.nautilus.window-state' b'initial-size' b'(893, 411)' b'org.gnome.nautilus.preferences' b'default-folder-viewer' b"'list-view'" InstallationDate: Installed on 2020-07-10 (249 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS "Focal Fossa" - Release amd64 (20200423) SourcePackage: nautilus UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) usr_lib_nautilus: To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1919440/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
