Description

Sorry, I don't like to open this kind of tickets.

There is a bad behavior on new legend GUI, the major problem is that I don't know how to get it. Here you can see it: http://downloads.tuxfamily.org/tuxgis/tmp/drag.tar.gz

After a while dragging legend items the symbology item pass to top level on the TreeWidget and then is impossible to remove it from there.

Hi,

on my box I cannot replicate it. This can be good news... or not. I tried hard for a few minutes with three polygon layers like you, but this strange behaviour didn't show. I'll try further, if can find a pattern it would be good.

comment:2 by homann, 15 years ago

I cannot replicate it either. What system are you on? What revision are you compiling?

comment:3 by gcarrillo, 15 years ago

Hi lutra and homann, I'm using Ubuntu 9.04, I did a 'svn update' 12 hours ago. Yes, it seems hard to replicate, I'll try to find some pattern. If it helps, I load heavy layers (a lot of vertices) and do some double clicks while try to drag the layers.

I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 too. Tried hard but still no "lucky" :) reproducing the issue.

comment:5 by lutra, 15 years ago

Even under windows I had no lucky reproducing the problem. Any news on your side?

comment:6 by gcarrillo, 15 years ago

Hi, I can't find yet a valid pattern but I see I can get the bad behavior doing this:

+ Load multiple layers.

+ Double click on symbology item for the last layer and try to drag just above the penultimate quickly. While you do the double click you have to move the cursor next to the layer item to enable the drag, otherwise you get the forbidden cursor.

After a while doing this I get the problem.

I really have no lucky reproducing this, even with your latest directions.

Admitted that it is reproducible bug somehow, I'm asking the following: now that the symbology is not selectable, why a user has to double click on it and/or try to drag it considered also that is not draggable? And why has to do it more then once? :)

Yes Lutra, I understand you, but the users could do anything, probably by mistake. I thought to write this issue on qgis-developer mailing list but I decided to open a new ticket to discuss it.

I really think the issue is strange, a common user could never see it. I was only trying to communicate some strange behavior, I think QGIS should be free of this troubles :).

I think QGIS should be free of this troubles :)

I agree! :)

Tested rather extensively, and I cannot reproduce it. Which Qt are you using?

comment:11 by gcarrillo, 15 years ago

Paolo, I'm using Qt 4.5.0.

comment:12 by lutra, 15 years ago

What to do with this? I really cannot replicate it on two different platforms and many different installations.

comment:13 by gcarrillo, 15 years ago

Lutra, I think it can be closed while I get an easy way to replicate. Next weeks I'll try to reproduce on other installations.

Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed

It has been reported that deleting the personal old settings ~/.qgis solves the issue. Feel free to reopen it if appropriate
