** Description changed: - After 0.5s of starting a multi-file selection by dragging from an empty - space, the action is interrupted by the context menu opening. + [ Impact ] + + When using a touchscreen, after 0.5s of starting a multi-file selection + by dragging from an empty space, the action is interrupted by the + context menu opening. + + The fix backports a patch from GNOME 47 to GNOME 46, which is now also + backported to the upstream gnome-46 stable branch and queued up for when + upstream will decide to make a new release. + + [ Test Case ] + + 1. Install the nautilus update being tested + 2. Log-out and log-in (or reboot) + 3. Open the Nautilus file manager + 4. Drag from an empty space to start a rectangle selection + 5. Verify that you could select multiple files/directories + + [ Regression Test Case ] + + 1. Long-press on an empty space + 2. Verify that the context menu opens. + + [ Where problems could occur ] + + Either the long-press gesture or the touch-drag gesture may not work. + The test cases will verify both. + + [ Other Info ] + + Do not be scared by the HACK and FIXME comments in the patch, they refer + to adding functionality to Gtk rather than implementing possibly + inefficient workarounds in Gtk apps like Nautilus.
