how do you do this?

In the drag_motion handler...  gtk_drag_status() passing zero as the
action.

and how can you tell if it is the same message-list? everything I try
fails.

blah, I give up.

the patch i'm about to attach sort of addresses it.

it makes the angle thing flicker like shit though, so i'm not
committing it yet.

fix?

reassigning to notzed since he has a possible fix

i dont know if that patch is right.

to me it makes it visually much worse because of flicker.

i dont know any otherway to change the behaviour.

someone make a decision

Yes, please.  Ageing needinfos make me nervous.

Poke?

Since we are not requering info from end user but internally, I'm
reopening this report

adding "patch" keyword

In ml_tree_drag_motion(), you should just need to add something like

  if (gtk_drag_get_source_widget (context) == tree) {
      gdk_drag_status (context, 0, time);
      return TRUE;
  }

reassigning stuff that has been assigned to notzed. goodbye, dude. :-/

should be an easy fix as described by federico... srini?

removing old target milestone.

Fix

Fixes a crash that happens when somebody drops on "On this computer" or other store names and also contains Federico's suggestion.

veerapuram, so can your patch be committed to cvs head (and also stable branch)?

For some reason (I Dont know)  it is not the same, and the patch seems to have no effect. It still shows the same icon. Im trying with evolution-2.8 on SLED.

same here, patch seems to have no effect. :-(

Bumping version to a stable release.

proposed evo patch

for evolution;

Here is updated Varadhan's patch. The reason why it didn't work was the fact that the source widget was some ECanvas inside the tree, thus checking for the children in the ETree helps here.

Milan, looks fine. commit to trunk. I haven't tested it[My code is badly broken atm, so just test and commit], but looks fine and logical.

Committed to trunk. Committed revision 35732.
