            Bug ID: 391450
           Summary: Option to disable drag and drop text
           Product: kate
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: jammer...@hotmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

I never intend to use text drag and drop, but I frequently unintentionally move
text while attempting to highlight text.  A check box in options to disable
this feature globally would be a big improvement.

This is specific to moving highlighted text, not dragging and dropping any
other type of object.

I'm not alone in this. This option does exist in other text editors.  Example:
https://www.live2tech.com/turn-off-text-drag-drop-word-2013/  It certainly
shouldn't be off by default as many people prefer it to cut and paste, but
there are people that almost never cut and paste and very frequently copy and
paste and moving the text on accident is a big inefficiency.
