I'm really unhappy with this, because it appears to paste text into the window below it:

When dragging and dropping text INSIDE the browser, it gets copied to a different windows BEHIND it.""" https://junk.devs.nu/2022/bugs/chromium_97.0.4692.71_snap_pastes_in_shell.mp4 """This is a similar video, this time pasting text in a shell, back when I did not know that the mouse position of release was relevant. Unintentionally pasting text into a shell is not cool.""" Observed with chromium 97.0.4692.71 and 98.0.4758.9 on Ubuntu Focal. I could not revert to the older version 1854 because snap had already removed it. Walter Doekes OSSO B.V. P.S.

When doing the drop drop, a DragWidget (semi-transparent version of image being dragged) is created. Since this image is under the cursor, it was incorrectly chosen when XDragDropClient::ProcessMouseMove() calls XTopmostWindowFinder::FindWindowAt(). The fix is to allow finder to take a set of windows to ignore, similar to what is already done for FindLocalProcessWindowAt(). The X11TopmostWindowFinder constructor now takes the ignore-set which applies to both Find* functions. Because, if it ignores its own window, then the dropped text may land in a window below it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to chromium-browser in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1956838 Title: drag and drop broken chromium snap Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: With the latest Chromium refresh on 2020-01-07 to version 97.0.4692.71 Chromium will not drag and drop selected text onto any any application including Chromium.
