The main issue here is that we don't currently detect drops within the same window that the drag started. If we did, we could avoid highlighting the dropzone in the source wiki: https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/issues/846 <https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/issues/686> As pmario notes, there is a separate issue whereby sometimes the green bar that highlights the dropzone sometimes doesn't disappear correctly: https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/issues/686 > What I have found is that sometimes clicking another the title for another tiddler will cause the Import Tiddler to appear with the selected Tiddler instead of opening that tiddler. I can duplicate that effect by moving the mouse slightly as I click on the tiddler I'm trying to open The trouble here is that browsers are pretty uncompromising about distinguishing a drag from a click; if you move the mouse more than a couple of pixels while the button is down then the browser will interpret it as a drag rather than a click. > I was importing a tiddler from the Braintest wiki while working on my tiddler "Adjusting TW5" in my destination wiki. "Adjusting TW5" and my desired tiddler appeared on the Import Tiddler list. I hit the import button and it successfully imported the tiddler from Braintest but it also replaced "Adjusting TW5" with the older version from another wiki The problem here is that when presented with the import listing you went ahead and clicked the "import" button. The import listing is an opportunity to review the tiddlers that will be imported, and proceed or abandon. If you proceed, then the previous value of the imported tiddlers is lost; that behaviour is by design. > Perhaps a flag on the import page that the imported tiddler will replace an existing one would be helpful. If the tiddler exists in the target wiki then the link in the $:/Import listing will be shown as a link to an existing tiddler, rather than italicised as a link to a missing tiddler. > Has someone suggested an Undo function? As pmario notes, there is a long term plan to retain revisions of each tiddler, allowing changes to be rolled back. It wouldn't be a singular undo stack, like you get with desktop applications, but the long term capability to independently roll back any tiddler.
