Summary: Mouse: multi-file "selection" & drag behavior broken Product: Wine Version: 20050628 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: wine-gui AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: masochisthalo@yahoo.com
Trying out both June's and May's release of Wine, I noticed that there is some wierd behavior when selecting multiple files and dragging within an application. It basically makes the ability to select and drag files unusable.
On (at least), these last two releases, I select multiple-files in an application "explorer-like" menu, and the moment I try to drag, the multi-select turns into a one-file select. Furthermore, the app enters into a state where it thinks I am holding the mouse down dragging the one file around. Minimizing and maximizng the app doesn't work either; in previous versions, when I couldn't drag a file from one window to the other, I'd minimize/ maximize the app (which would "reset" things), and I could drag files once again.
In my case, I am using AbsoluteFTP; as you guessed, its an FTP app. If you can imagine, within it, there are two windows that look like the file Explorer on Windows. On the left, is the local machine and the right is the box you've FTPed into. On wine-20041201, I can hold down shift and select >2 files on the remote box. Then using my mouse, drag them to my localbox. So, there are no problems here.
Also, on my CodeWright application, I can no longer highlight text by dragging the mouse across code.
Any ideas? I'm sure it will ring a bell for someone who may have been working towards improving the mouse dragging capabilities.
Thanks! Hiji
