Public bug reported:
I copyed a bunch of files from a Nautilus window into another by
Ctrl+dragging and dropping them. Both windows were set with icons
visualization, so when I (ctrl)dragged and dropped the icons, dotted
rectangles were drawn and dragged, as expected.
However, after dropping the files, which were succesfully copied, the
dotted rectangles should have disappeared, but they remained, as if
printed on the destination window. Neither by moving, nor by minimizing
and remaximizing the window, could I get rid of the spurious dotted
rectangles. Even while navigating to other folders, the dotted
rectangles stay there. Even after resizing the window. Despite the
contents of the window being redrawn and updated, the dotted rectangles
are still there, and they move around while I move around the window, as
if they were part of its contents.
The only way to have them disappear is to completely close the window.
Obviously this is not systematically reproducible. This doesn't happen
often. Don't expect to be able to reproduce it by ctrl+dragging icons
from a window to another. 99.99% of the times this won't happen.
