Description munehiro 2003-03-15 17:04:48 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.0.99)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc (GCC) 3.2 (Mandrake Linux 9.0 3.2-1mdk) 
OS:          Linux

how to reproduce

- open kwrite and a konsole
- write something on the konsole, then highlight with the mouse what you wrote (say "hello") and select "copy".
- always in konsole, write something different, and highlight it (or highlight the prompt) then start a drag and drop from the konsole to the kwrite. The Cursor will hint the drag with the square and the 'plus' sign.
- the kwrite will receive the paste buffer, so you will have "hello" in kwrite and not the prompt.

This is wrong or at least not intuitive. Please note that doing the same in reverse order from kwrite to konsole works as expected (the highlighted text is the one which is pasted when the drop event occur)

This was fixed before KDE 3.1. Still running a release candidate?

unfortunately yes, since my connection does not allow me to download and install
frequently. I made some search in the bug database and found nothing, so i
thought the bug was still here. Sorry for the dupe.
