Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubuntu-artwork
When you drag a file, it's cursor changes to indicate that wither the
file will be copied or moved when it is dropped. Right now, the two are
barely distinguishable.
This causes a bit of a usability problem because the default drag'n'drop
action differs depending on if you drop the file on the same or a
different file system.
Here are two suggestions:
for Move, have the cursor change to include an icon representing a document
with a curved arrow point from nothing to the document
for Copy, have two slightly overlapping documents
I'm attaching a *rough* (I think you'll agree that its rough) sketch of
what I'm trying to describe.
** Affects: ubuntu-artwork (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
