Drag files and folders outside their names

The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

Drag files and folders outside their names

Post by *bogdand »

Hi,

I think something changed in TC9, I can drag files and folders only by clicking on their names, not on the blue background which is longer then the name. This is confusing for me.

Is it possible to change this from Options?
I tried to find something but without luck.

Thanks!

This is due to the new rubber band selection.

You can select multiple files while mouse button is pressed and move the mouse over the files.

Single selection or drag'n'drop works by selection of names only.

You may disable this with option : Operation - Mouse selection method - Rubber band selection

You are right! It works without the "Rubber band selection" checked. Thanks!

I did not receive the answer by email and I remember just now to check the forum.
