Tab-drag to move tab fails : opens new window

[Daygan]

When I use my mouse to select and drag a tab to a new location, the tab will not resolve in the new location that I place it in. When I release the mouse, the tab opens in a new window. The tab in the new window, also, cannot be dragged back to the original window. Both of these features were previously available in the Chromium browser. The same error also exists in the Chrome browser.

Daygan and anyone else affected,

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu and Chromium since that time. Your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates.

It would help us a lot if you could test on a currently supported Ubuntu version. When you test it and it is still an issue, kindly upload the updated logs by running only once in a terminal:

apport-collect 999498

and add any additional information that you think relevant. Alternatively, please confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the report. If we do not hear from you the bug report will close itself in approximately two months time.

Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu better.
