Summary: Can't drag and drop files from Dolphin to the k3b project panel
Product: [Applications] k3b Reporter: James Dent <semajdent>

Status: RESOLVED FIXED    
Severity: normal CC: bugzilla, kamikazow, trueg

Description James Dent 2010-06-25 04:15:03 UTC
Version:           1.93.0 (using KDE 4.4.4) 
OS:                Linux

Files and folders cannot be dragged and dropped from Dolphin to the k3b project panel: when one attempts do so, the "invalid action" cursor is displayed. This is particularly problematic in that it makes it difficult to add hidden files to the project. (The only work-around I could come up with was to add the visible parent folder to the project, and remove its undesirable subfolders.)

This functionality was fine in RC3, so perhaps it is a regression in RC4?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start k3b and create a new project.
2. Open Dolphin.
3. Use the mouse to drag a file or folder from Dolphin to k3b's project panel.

Actual Results:  
The "invalid action" mouse cursor is displayed, and no action is taken.

Expected Results:  
The file or folder is added to the k3b project.

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.33-ARCH
Compiler: gcc

Thanks for fixing this. Can you please add in which version it is fixed?

Currently only in trunk and branch and not in a release version. You could either compile it yourself or bug your distributor to ship a branch build.
Comment 6 Janet 2010-07-09 23:27:24 UTC
Does this also fix dropping files from digikam?
