Some clarification on what's happening. Bug #1 When unmodified dragging a file from the file manager to the desktop, The drag modifier shows the file is being copied (Small '+' symbol) but the file is moved. ie. The drag modifier incorrectly shows copy instead of nothing (move).
Bug #2 When copy dragging (ctrl held down) a file from the file manager to the desktop, The drag modifier shows the file is being copied (Small '+' symbol) but the file is moved. ie. The copy operation is not carried out, The file is moved instead. Inconsistancy #1 Unmodified dragging from the desktop to a file manager copies the file. Unmodified dragging from a file manager to the desktop moves the file. ie. What default used (Copy or Move) is irrelevent, The issue here is both the operations should be consistant in their action of either Copy or Move. Long standing issue These problems are a barnacle for the unaware user, The issue may seem innocuous but has a real possiblility of people loosing files because they assume (As indicated) a copy operation has been carried out when infact a move operation has occured. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1082511 Title: wrong drag & drop behaviour between desktop and folders To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfdesktop/+bug/1082511/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
