Dragging service manager, prevents dragging songs to it

[Jonathan Corwin]

Windows 7
OpenLP 2.1.1 build bzr2445

If I drag the Service Manager window to a new location, I am then unable to drop a song into it that has been dragged from the Song Library.

Funny, I experienced this just last Sunday. Windows 7 OpenLP 2.0.5

I could not reproduce on Ubuntu 14.10

Have to do some more testing, but I believe it's due to when the ServiceManager window is moved out of the main window, it becomes an independent window (no longer part of openlp main window).

Browsing the code, it looks like we have provisions for internal drag/drop (i.e.; song library to attached service manager), but do not have a provision for drag/drop to external window (i.e., song library to detached service manager).

This is a corner case and not critical.

Whilst I agree its not critical, I would not call it a corner case, as two developers discovered it independently. Also, I wouldn't categorise it as wishlist as its not a feature request.

This is a bug, not a feature request. Happy for it to stay at low but it isn't a wish.
It could also lead to a bad first experience if a new user rearranges the interface and then finds drag and drop doesn't work, they may think it isn't supported.

Just installed 2.1.2 (beta from the website) at church. First thing I did was move the service manager so it's next to the media manager, as per our usual layout. Then realised that I couldn't drag anything from the media manager into the service or reorder service items via drag and drop. Slightly ironic that I moved the service manager so that dragging items would be easier :-)

I didn't notice it at the time but it seems that drag and drop works as expected after restarting OpenLP. This makes this bug less critical for me but caused a moment of confusion.

Just tested this on 2.4.1 on Windows 7.
Tried moving the Service manager both undocked outside the main window & then docked in different locations in the main window before dragging items in from the Library.

~ Unable to replicated issue ~
Can anyone else confirm bug or fixed?

Tested again as above but on 2.2.1
Verified the issue is present in 2.2.1, but not 2.4.1.
