Public bug reported: Steps to reproduce:
- navigate to a folder that contains at least a hidden file (file whose name starts with a ".") - be sure to enable the "show hidden files" option in the View menu - hold the Ctrl key pressed - click on a hidden file and drag it into another place in the same folder - release the mouse button and the ctrl key Expected: the file should be copied, as happens with non-hidden files Observed: nothing happens This is just one of many issue in Nautilus when handling hidden files.
