--- Comment #39 from Owen <wall.o...@gmail.com> ---
So I had this "bug" and screwed around with the mouse settings a bit to fix it.

I'm guessing that dragging starts after you hold for the "drag start time" OR
move the pointer the "drag start distance" while holding.

So, I wondered, how come it thinks it's dragging when I'm not holding for the
drag start time or moving it the drag start distance?

Then I saw "pointer threshold" was 4px - the same value as "drag start
distance".

I'm not sure exactly how KDE handles these values, but it seems to be
subtracting "pointer threshold" from "drag start distance"

As in, if both are 4px you only need to move the pointer 0px to trigger drag
starting.

I just decreased pointer threshold to 2px by resetting to defaults, and have
had no problem since.

What I'm not sure of is how pointer threshold got set to 4px in the first place
- I know I didn't do it. My guess is that some installs, for some reason, are
setting this value to the same or greater value as "drag start distance", even
though the default is lower.

Why would a new install not be set to defaults?
