Description Nicolas Setton 2002-03-27 18:18:22 UTC 
Hello,



 Here is how to reproduce this one:

 

    run testtext,

    type a few lines of text

    select some text (your selection must go to the end of the text)

    then drag your selection and try to drop it at the very end of your text: the selection is removed.



 Nico, for the GtkAda team.

I think what happens is that you drag the selection to the spot right
after itself, which has no visible effect except for removing the
selection.

Maybe dragging something to the spot right after itself should be
disallowed in drag_motion?

Sounds right to me.
