Description

alecs dragmenu from svn 3385 to copy and move messages after drag and drop is great and very nice
i think its better usability for users when dragmenu shows always after drag and drop messages over a folder.

this.drag_menu = function(e, mbox)
  {
    var modkey = rcube_event.get_modifier(e);
    var menu = $('#'+this.gui_objects.message_dragmenu);

    //if (menu && modkey == SHIFT_KEY) {
    //show dragmenu to copy and move messages always after drag and drop messages
    if (menu) {
      var pos = rcube_event.get_mouse_pos(e);
      this.env.drag_mbox = mbox;
      menu.css({top: (pos.y-10)+'px', left: (pos.x-10)+'px'}).show();
      return true;
    }
  };

-1 for me.

I think the common case when dragging a message is to move it and an always popping up menu will make this common operation unnecessarily complicated.

For copying I suggest to always copy the message when pressing shift (or ctrl) and to visualize this by adding a [+] symbol to the dragged object.

  • Resolution set to wontfix

This is also true for most desktop environments. About dragged layer suggestion. This is not simple while it's possible to drag without key and press it on drop.
