I want to drag a file from Nautilus to Brasero in Ubuntu 12.04 when both windows are open.
The only way to do it that I know currently is to maximize Brasero and left the Nautilus open (but not minimized) and so I can drag the file to the window that it is below, but I wonder if there is a more quick way to do it.
Thanks for your help!
In my app I have a screen with grid view, where I displayed photos, in 2 columns.
I want to add possibility to reorder photos by drag end drop.
I have android 4.0, and I used android native drag and drop:

So, I already add drag&drop functionality, but the problem is, that I need to scroll grid view when user trying to drag top image
I tried to burn iso image to DVD using my Laptops DVD writer, but I am unable to do so.
I am using Ubuntu 10.10 and have used brasero, gnomebaker and acetoneiso burner.
Today I was trying to drag some images from Nautilus which was maximized to a minimized Inkscape so I could work with them. My intuitive way was to drag the images to the Inkscape launcher icon and this would maximized Inkscape so I could drop the images there. Similar to how old gnome worked when dragging a content to one of the windows that showed in the upper panel.
I could not it that way.
I'm trying to drag and drop images from my web browser to a folder. In both Fedora and Ubuntu, dragging without holding a modifier key creates a link to the image. In Ubuntu I can drag the image by holding CTRL or Shift while dragging.
As the title suggests I was wondering how, if possible, to change to behaviour of the drag and drop in nautilus? I'm dual booting Ubuntu 11.10 and Windows Vista, and I have most of my files stored on the Windows partition (for easy of access between OS's).
When using Firefox I often drag URLS's either to the address bar or search boxes. When I drag URL's the Unity launcher will appear and show which programs the URL can be dragged to. However this causes my system to briefly lag while the launcher sorts itself out.
It was a shock to realise that drag and drop file manipulation isn't possible in Ubuntu 10.10 on an Acer Netbook ZG5.
Installing Ubuntu 12.04 on an Acer Netbook D270, soon realized that not only is file drag and drop still not possible, but screen brightness can no longer be adjusted from keyboard controls.
I'm not sure if it's a gnome setting or something deeper into the Linux OS, but I'd like to change the drag and drop threshold.
It happens too often on my clickable touchpad that I try clicking and it highlights text instead because I barely moved and it thinks I'm trying to drag.
