Looking at the screenshot in comment #24 and option 1 works for me now.

Jan, as I tried to point out in comment 26, if Nautilus is *not* in file

attached screenshot. Given the window in that screenshot, I can *only*
drag a file to a subfolder of 'mp3', but not to 'mp3' itself. :(

Option 1 is also not at all obvious. Many people migrating from Windows
will be expecting to be able to simply drag and drop into the main area,

possible then?
This problem needs to be fixed asap. If we're talking about usability,
this could be a crucial turnoff for people new to Ubuntu. I would
certainly rate this as __the__ biggest annoyance in the Ubuntu user

I second this bug, this has been a source of endless annoyance for

I agree that always having some usable white space in list view is very

folder that I want to drag to, and then drag to the folder's icon, or
right click it and select paste into folder, but having white space is

Drag 'n Drop
During our recent usability tests one of the subjects (an accountant,
using Windows/MS Excel daily) had huge problems with dragging and
dropping a file (exactly as described here) and, after about five
minutes of trying - already very frustrated - had to revert to right-
click copy and filepaste
Both of these issues (the drag-and-drop of files/folders and the right-
click context menu in full list-view) have bothered me for a long time;
there is still no solution in Ubuntu Jaunty.
