Dragging files or dir.'s over to the nautilus sidebar no longer produces any highlighing of intended target

[Doug McMahon]

Normally when dragging a file to the favorites area the dir.'s are highlighted, this no longer happens.
This stopped with the recent gtk3 upgrade

thank you for your bug report, is that the same issue than bug #874386? does it happen with other themes?

>is that the same issue than bug #874386? does it happen with other themes?

No, actually I don't currently see that other bug as being valid, tested on my cureent installs (A2 updated; image from 02/21, there is no issue dropping files into any of the places locations on the sidebar ( you can't drop onto Bookmarks locations, but that's nothing new

Easiest to show with screens, used live sessions for this as I'm currently using a modified Ambiance Dark & don't want to color the issue so to speak

Attached here - as seen previously, using image from 02/21, when dragged over the location is lightly highlighted

[Doug McMahon (mc3man)]

This is from todays image, noting that on my real install that the same is seen. When dragging over this is no highlighting though dropping can be successful

(also the same on the Radiance theme

I know from my installs the highlighting broke on the gtk+3.0 source package upgrades, version shown in screen

[Doug McMahon (mc3man)]

Excuse me about saying the other bug wasn't 'valid', for some unknown reason thought they meant places, any way this is about the highlighting, not the ability to drop

Reproduced in nautilus 3.3.90-0ubuntu2

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

ok, using the GNOME theme (adwaita) there is a selection rectangle around the places on dnd mouseover so I guess that's a theme issue

Fix in bug #945014.
