Anthony:
In Scintilla you can use the mouse to move text - by basically
grabbing a section - holding the mouse button down and placing it
somewhere else.
Is it possible to disable this action? If so, how?
I don't know of any easy way to disable this action. The quickest
solution would probably be to modify the source code.
This may or may not be related, but in the Scintilla [GTK2+] widget on
Windows, I find it disconcerting that when clicking to try and make a
selection "go away" (or make a new selection elsewhere), I immediately
see what I assume to be a "copy cursor" appear...
Looking at this more closely, I observe that this only happens if my
new click is somewhere within the same vertical region of the selected
line(s). If I click above or below this area, then I get the expected
[by me] behavior.
Overall, this just looks like relatively simple (compared to a window
manager) logic deciding to initiate a drag operation on button-down,
without waiting for some amount of movement first.
Of course, I think you have said that there are complexities with the
cross-platform support of treating separately such fine-grain events
as button-down and button-up...
