--- Comment #23 from Fernando Marcelino Muniz <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Fernando Marcelino Muniz from comment #13) > To summarize the feature's aspects: > > 1- The rubberband selection should cause the part of the windows that are > over the rubberband selection to become see-through; allowing users to > select items with precision without having to ever minimize windows. > > 2- If an item is selected underneath a window, the rubberband selection will > remain active until you drag any of the selected items or deselect them by > simply clicking anywhere else, including the empty spaces of the rubberband > selection (Otherwise the feature would depend on items not underneath > windows; ruining the point.). > > 3- Holding CTRL while clicking on items must allow users to select/deselect > them. > > Use-case: Drag and drop Desktop items into anything that supports this > function (A lot of websites, Content editors, etc.). > It also gives true functionality to the vestigial ability of making > rubberband selections underneath windows. There will be situations where selected items are, for ex, 3% visible through the rubberband, which would make the drag n' drop impossible. To fix this, the rubberband should expand until the selected-yet-barely-visible items become 100% visible. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
