Bug ID: 405280
Summary: Wish: Dropping text on the line number border should
insert at the beginning of that line.
Product: kate
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: application
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: david.hu...@mailbox.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Currently, moving whole lines with the mouse is a bit difficult, as the text
must be dropped exactly in front of the first letter of the destination line.
Dropping the text on the line number would be easier. But this copies the text
to a new document.
I am used to drop onto line numbers from another text editor. An older Kate
(KDE 4), Notepad++, or Atmel Studio, not sure which.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a file with many lines of text
2. Select some lines and drag them with the mouse
3. Drop them on a line number
OBSERVED RESULT
The lines should be moved to the line on which'es number* they were dropped.
EXPECTED RESULT
The lines are copied to a new document. You have to do undo, close, and try it
again.
Is there a purpose of the current functionality? If yes, could this be
configurable?
