Description Mark Fraser 2012-12-12 13:20:46 UTC

Drag and dropping email attachments no longer works. In previous versions of KMail it was possible to save an attachment by dragging it to the desired location, but recently it has stopped working and you have to right click and either copy or save as.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open email with an attachment
2.Try to drag the attachment to a folder in Konqueror
3.
Actual Results:  
Nothing happens

Expected Results:  
The file is saved in the target location.

Comment 2 Laurent Montel 2012-12-18 07:43:27 UTC

Not sure what you mean by dnd attachment?

Comment 5 Laurent Montel 2012-12-19 12:38:04 UTC

It works fine

Comment 6 Mark Fraser 2012-12-19 12:58:46 UTC

When I move the cursor over the attachment, it changes to a hand, but nothing happens when I try to drag it somewhere.

Comment 7 Laurent Montel 2012-12-19 13:11:34 UTC

So don't know how you can report bug about dnd

Comment 8 Mark Fraser 2013-03-18 15:50:49 UTC

As an update to this bug, I installed Kubuntu 13.04 onto a new laptop and I still can't use drag and drop to save an attachment.

Comment 9 Laurent Montel 2013-03-18 17:39:09 UTC

I still confirm work fine.
Need more infos how do you do to explain that it doesn't work for you.

Comment 10 Mark Fraser 2013-03-19 14:07:37 UTC

I find an email that has an attachment, and I click and drag from the attachment to Konqueror, the pointer changes from an arrow to a finger and nothing happens.
