multiple selection and drag-n-drop
I suppose somebody else must have come across this issue -- and if so I'd be grateful for any ideas. I have a treeview in which GTK_SELECTION_MULTIPLE is enabled. And there's a meaning attached to dragging elements from this treeview to another window. The design problem is that if the user has selected multiple elements in the treeview (using shift- or ctrl-click), and then she presses the mouse button to start a drag, that press undoes the multiple selection, and only the element directly under the mouse pointer actually gets dragged. Is there a standard way of handling this? -- Allin Cottrell Department of Economics Wake Forest University, NC ___ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
