           Summary: ark: drag & drop marks more files before draging work as
                    expected
           Product: ark
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: helio conectiva com
        ReportedBy: mail danielfrein net


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.91)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

OS:                Linux

There are strange things happening with drag & drop in ark: whenever I try to drag a file from an archive \
and I press the left mouse button and start to move the mouse, it takes about one second until the drag \
mechanism works -- in the meantime, ark will select all files under the mouse pointer. This is a little \
bit hard to describe, but I have this troubles since a long time (different distros, different computers, \
different versions of kde). In other words: after I click on a file in an archive (in ark), everything is \
still O.K. After starting moving the mouse the confusion begins: it takes about one second, until it \
switches from file-selection to drag-and-drop mode (why is ark in multi-fileselection-mode - I am not \
pressing 'shift'?). after this, many files are highlighted, but only the ones I selected in the begining \
will be dropped. sometimes the mouse pointer even indicates drag-and-drop after I release the left mouse \
button. This behavior seems to be related with bug #66696 (http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66696). I \
think that this is very confusing -- I would prefer if drag and drop in ark will be disabled until this \
gets fixed.
