[Bug 282013] Re: Resizing Nautilus window using drag handle, handle seems to be "lost" after first drag

 

In Karmic alpha 3 this bug is still present.

As Ronan wrote in comment #2 it is not a Nautilus problem only. For
example gedit is also affected.

In addition to my comment #13: I think, when the button is released
while resizing a window, first the window gets redrawn for the last time
AND AFTER THAT the mouse coordinates are read to determine where the
resize area shall be, and after clipping this area to its usual region
it disappears completely.

With a mouse most people will first stop moving before releasing the
button and won't see the problem. And on systems with fast cpu/graphics
the error will only be a few pixels. But on older Laptops with touchpads
the problem is quite obvious. But because the symptom nearly seems
random, many users might think their touchpads or movements are just too
unprecise.

IMHO this bug would perfectly fit as one of the "One Hundred Paper
Cuts", especially because one target of Karmic is to maximize usability
on Netbooks.
