           Summary: Radio Streams drag-and-drop severely broken
           Product: amarok
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: amarok-bugs-dist kde org
        ReportedBy: psychonaut nothingisreal com


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.7)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

In the Radio Streams folder of the Playlist tab are displayed a number of folders \
with radio streams which ship with Amarok (I'll call these "factory streams"), plus \
user-defined folders.  It is sometimes possible for the user to drag a radio stream \
from one folder to another.  However, there are many related bugs:

1. Wrong cursor icon when moving streams

When dragging from a factory folder to a user folder, the mouse pointer changes to a \
"copy" pointer.  However, the actual operation is to *move*, not copy -- the radio \
stream disappears from the original factory folder.

2. Can't copy streams from factory folder to user folder

It's not possible to copy a stream from a factory folder to a user folder, even if \
one holds down the Shift key while dragging.  All such drags are moves.

3. Can't move streams to an expanded folder

When the user initiates drag-and-drop from one folder to another folder which is \
expanded, highlight bars appear between the items in the list indicating that the GUI \
is willing to accept a drop there.  However, unless the user moves the cursor over \
the folder icon so that the highlight bar appears at the bottom of the expanded \
folder list, the drop will not take.

4. Can't undo bad moves or copies

If a user moves a factory stream to a user folder, or if he copies a factory stream \
to a different factory folder, there is no way to undo it.  That is, there is no \
"Undo" function, nor is there any way of moving a stream from a user folder back to a \
factory folder, nor is there any way of deleting a stream from a factory folder.  \
(The issue of not being able to delete streams was raised in Bug 139109 and marked as \
WONTFIX.)
