Title:
drag&drop of files randomly silently fails
Status in Unity:
Confirmed
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I'm not sure whether this is Nautilus or Unity at fault. This happens
with both a Nautilus window and the Desktop:
1. In a Nautilus window: click on a file icon, drag it and drop it
over a folder. Or hold the Ctrl key and click and drag and drop the
file immediately in almost the same place where it was.
In the first case (dragging over a folder) the file should be moved;
in the second case the file should be copied. In both cases, if you do
it quickly enough, the action is completely ignored and nothing
happens.
It seems to be related to the fact that the Launcher (or whatever it
is called) shows up on the left of the screen when you start dragging.
If its show-up animation is not complete when you drop the item, the
drag&drop operation is ignored.
2. On the desktop, the same happens. Or if you simply move an icon (in
which case the expected behavior would be for the icon to snap to the
nearest position in the grid and stay there) you can also observe that
the action is ignored and the icon goes back to its original position.
