Description Jonathan Ringstad 2015-08-22 13:19:08 UTC 
Dragging the rectangle-representations of windows around in the pager seems to be very imprecise when using more than one row of workspaces in the pager (possibly also related to having more than one monitor.)

Here is a video of the behaviour: http://virvel.de/pager-bug.mp4

As visible in the video, the rectangle doesn't exactly follow the mouse, it "sticks" for a bit before it starts moving, causing it to have some vertical offset. This makes it impossible to move a window from an upper workspace to a workspace below. Moving the mouse horizontally a bit first will "unstick" the rectangle, upon which it precisely follows the mouse and can be dropped anywhere.

Reproducible: Always

The pager has been completely rewritten in Plasma 5.8 and I cannot reproduce the issue here with two screens and multiple rows of virtual desktops. Feel free to re-open if the issue persists.
