Description Trond Andersen 2007-03-30 10:43:32 UTC 
To illustrate the problem:
1. Start GEdit
2. Close the empty document which GEdit creates for you
3. Open nautilus
4. Drag a text file on the "grey" area below the toolbar

This doesn't work. Why can't one drag a document anywhere on the application? I'm sure this confuses a lot of users.

Yeah, this sucks it used to work with gtk 2.8, but new features of GtkNotebook in gtk 2.10 broke it... I am pretty sure we have this bug already filed somewhere but can't find it right now.
I think there is a patch for gtk in that bug, but I don't think it's been includede yet :(

This is a dupe of bug 371443.
Comment 3 Paolo Borelli 2007-06-21 21:38:15 UTC
