This doesn't only happen if done too quickly, this fails randomly about 50% of the times. Even if you wait for the left launcher animation to be completely done before you drop (which I now _always_ do), the drop still silently fails at random times. Usually, when you redo it a second time it works. But there are times when I retry again and again and it keeps failing, until I deselect, reselect the files and try again and it works.
This is tremendously annoying and it's been already more than 6 months. It's also DANGEROUS: if you don't realise the copy has not been done, you may delete the original files thinking you have already copied them. Importance should be raised. ** Summary changed: - drag&drop of files is ignored if done too quickly + drag&drop of files randomly silently fails -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1029371 Title: drag&drop of files randomly silently fails To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1029371/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
