Description M G Berberich 2009-10-29 10:13:19 UTC
Version:           4.3.1 (KDE 4.3.1) (using 4.3.1 (KDE 4.3.1), Debian packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.30-2-amd64

In KDE3 konqueror it was possible te rearang / reorder tabs with the middle-mouse-button. This no longer is possible with KDE4 konqueror.
Comment 1 Frank Reininghaus 2009-10-29 20:28:25 UTC
Thanks for the report. I cannot confirm this: Moving tabs using the middle mouse button works fine for me in Konqueror 4.3.2 (Kubuntu).
Comment 2 Frank Reininghaus 2009-10-29 21:09:59 UTC
Which Qt version are you using (one way to find that out is to run "konqueror --version" in a terminal)?

I've just noticed that tab moving does not work in my trunk build which uses Qt 4.6 (whereas my Konqueror 4.3.2, which can move tabs, uses Qt 4.5.2). Maybe this problem is due to a change in Qt.
Comment 3 M G Berberich 2009-10-29 22:57:01 UTC
I have:

Qt: 4.5.2
KDE: 4.3.1 (KDE 4.3.1)
Konqueror: 4.3.1 (KDE 4.3.1)

and it's not working.
Comment 4 Frank Reininghaus 2010-01-16 00:37:51 UTC
What I mentioned in comment 2 is another issue (regression in 4.4, see bug 214646). In KDE 4.3.x, I still can't reproduce your problem.

Do you still have the problem? If yes, can you always reproduce it, or do you need some particular number or some special kind of tabs?
Comment 5 M G Berberich 2010-01-16 10:50:05 UTC
Yes, I still have the problem.
Moving never works, regardless of number or kind of tabs.
Comment 6 Frank Reininghaus 2010-01-16 11:19:59 UTC
Hm, strange. Could you check if Konqueror gestures are enabled and if disabling them helps (System Settings -> Computer Administration -> Input Actions)? There was an issue that broke middle clicking in Konqueror if gestures were enabled (bug 189761).

If that doesn't help, I'm really clueless about what the problem might be :-(
Comment 7 M G Berberich 2010-01-16 13:13:31 UTC
Moving tabs works after switching konqueror-mouse-gestures off.
Comment 8 Frank Reininghaus 2010-01-16 13:21:56 UTC
Thanks for the update!
