Description G Bulmer 2006-09-14 16:00:50 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.

This is a gtk issue.

Gtk developers would appreciate help in figuring out better default values. see the duplicate bug for details.
