Bug 97743 [portability] Drag Tool Turns Off on Linux
Reported: 2005-05-31 17:17:19 | Status: resolved fixed

When you're dragging something and the mouse goes over an object, a tooltip, or the edge, it cancel out of drag mode and goes back to a normal selection tool. This only happens on Linux and has been a real source of annoyance for our users. Sure would love a fix.
