SUMMARY *** When I'd previously try to copy/move files from one pane to another, if the pane was filled with directories I used to be able to place the cursor over a blank area and as long as there was no text(or that seemed to be the trigger) I could release the mouse button and it'd drop into the root folder. Now it doesn't seem very clear where you can drop a file to get it to drop into the root folder. Dropping it into a blank area will now put it in the folder under your cursor. *** STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Drag/drop file into another pane 2. File will drop into folder that is on the line your cursor is over(if that makes sense) OBSERVED RESULT File drops into folder even if you aren't over the folder name EXPECTED RESULT File drops into the root folder as long as you're not over the text of the folder's name. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch Linux (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 22.04.1 I think KDE Frameworks Version: Qt Version:
I suppose this could be in some setting somewhere but I'm pretty sure this just happened in the past month or two and I don't think I changed any settings for Dolphin.
Could you make a short video to show what you are doing because it would be easier to visualize
(In reply to Phos from comment #2) > Could you make a short video to show what you are doing because it would be > easier to visualize I hope this will show it properly. I couldn't easily find a folder that had enough subfolders to illustrate this so just pretend there are hundreds of subfolders in the right panel and that I'm trying to avoid dropping in anything but the root folder for that panel. It used to only highlight(and hence drop into) a folder when the cursor was over the actual text in the folder. I'll be happy to make another to illustrate further if necessary(sorry it took me so long to make this one. I was trying to edit out my personal info as much as possible). https://youtu.be/j5LPbJIItOM

I provided the info above and apparently forgot to change the status.
For the record, the warning told me to set this as "REPORTED" but that's not an option, only "REOPENED". I haven't heard anything on this so I'm hoping this isn't getting lost because of that.
This seems to be a part of the annoying new behavior that is discussed here https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=453700

This is not a duplicate of the other bug report. This report here is about drag and drop behaviour which was already fixed for 22.08 by https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/commit/5ebf2065d525160a29f1d7aeef41541c6033bccf.
