Confirmed here as well, on precise, saucy, and trusty in unity, on multiple devices.
The lack of this feature is an annoyance to me (and others I know) daily. Dragging very far across a screen without drag-lock is unsafe, as there may not be enough touch-pad real-estate to make the journey, or the sensitivity of the pad may lead to inadvertent drop. In both cases, items wind up being dropped where they don't belong -- often into unintended folders, etc. not only locally, but in web-interfaces that may lack undo-features, or have public side-effects. Not everyone has physical buttons for their newer touch-pads to use as a work-around, and many of us prefer to have a silent (no mechanical clicks) mousing experience. The lack of this feature is one of those things that makes Ubuntu suffer polish-points and usability points versus the other major OSs and their GUIs. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1234846 Title: Touchpad options missing drag lock feature To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1234846/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
