>I'll think about this a bit more. Don't know yet how to handle it best. > Some suggestions to throw in the pot: 1. Make the black insertion line thicker. 2. Display Up/Down arrows below/above the black isertion line, to point where the insertion will occur too. 3. Show the item in its new position, rather than floating where the mouse is. 4. Highlight the dragged item and the item it is dragged over in different colours. 5. Display the dragged item a bit to the right, so the insertion line is visible on the left half, and some of the draggable item on the right half of the current playlist panel.
Another issue with showing the isertion point is that it sometimes doesn't seem to calculate it correctly, or not at all. It seems that if you are dragging an item above from where it used to be, the isertion point is the position above the item it is dragged on to. Dragging lower that the current positio, displays the isertion point after the item it is dragged on to. However, sometimes if I drag up and down the list for a bit, this rule seems to go astray, and the insertion line is sometimes above or below the item I am hovering above. Sometimes the line doesn't appear at all (eg. when hovering on the last item, I would expect the line to be at the very bottom, but it's not there and when I release, the item stays where it was picked up from. Sorry, can't be more exact than that at the moment - it doesn't quite seem right all of the time, and I haven't spotted the pattern yet. >I thought that bug has become the general "playlist editing needs rework" bug. >That two step thing really isn't intuitive.

It does work if I hover over the last visible item and wait a second. The mouse pointer has to be a few pixels above the bottom of the panel - I think I was slowly dragging down and stopping within 1 or 2 pixels of the bottom before. _______________________________________________ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
