GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 355980
Drag and Drop scrolls unusably quickly and incorrectly
Last modified: 2006-10-07 11:04:36 UTC
Please describe the problem: When editing a java file source file apprximately 3 times longer than the window, I select 2 lines, and try to drag and drop the lines 3 lines higher. As I drag up the visible window the file scrolls to the previous page (top of file), when I drag down, the visible page scrolls to the end of file. The scroll happens so quickly that it is not deasible to release the text in a useful place. Note *ALL* of the lines effeced are visible witin the window, so there is no need to scroll. Steps to reproduce: 1. load a file approximately 2.5 times longer than the window height. 2. Select 4 lines 3. Drag the lines above the selection, or below the selection - the window will scroll very, very quickly to the top or bottom of the file. Actual results: The window scrolls very quickly to the top or bottom of the file. Expected results: The file would not scroll until the insertion point reaches a predicatably 'sensive' region (usually) at the top or bottom line, and the scroll would be slow enough to control so that I could move the insertion point out of the 'sensitve' region atht e top or bottom of the window, and halt scrolling. Does this happen every time? Yes. Other information: I am runing SolarisExpress (10) on a 2.6GHz Pentium 4
This is a gtk issue. Gtk developers would appreciate help in figuring out better default values. see the duplicate bug for details. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 92387 ***
