Where those designations appear in this work, and the publisher was aware of a trademark claim, the designations have been printed with initial capital letters or in all capitals. Yes I also found some shortcut to manipulate layer but now I'm stuck.Many of the designations used by manufacturers and sellers to distinguish their products are claimed as trademarks. My work on another computer now that doesn't have this issue though. Reordering layers can be done through the Layers menu. Them (what clicking was supposed to do in the first place). I'veĪctually learned some tricks to get around some of the issues, likeĬlicking on UI elements and then pressing the space bar to activate Your reply, I hadn't heard of anyone else with this problem.
#DOCK AND UNDOCK MENUS INKSCAPE UPDATE#
Update had been reapplied, so I don't know why it broke again. Yeah, it only fixed it for me for about a week.
#DOCK AND UNDOCK MENUS INKSCAPE WINDOWS 7#
It reads, "An update is available that changes the default settings of the shaping behavior for Arabic text rendering in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2." Again, I don't see a connection to drag and drop in GIMP, and the issue did not go away after rebooting from uninstalling this update, so I don't think it was the issue. The only other update I uninstalled was KB2786400. I have no idea why "MS13-006: Vulnerabilities in Microsoft SSL implementation could allow security feature bypass: January 8, 2013" would cause this problem, but hopefully if someone else is suffering from this issue, they can find this thread and fix it like I did. So then I started uninstalling the updates one by one, checking GIMP after each reboot, and it started working again after uninstalling that update. So I tried multiple times to perform a system restore from before the updates, but that never worked (I actually had to run the startup repair tool to even get Windows booting again after that fiasco). After posting here, I recalled recently seeing a notification that Windows had installed new updates, and it was about the same time when drag and drop stopped working in GIMP.

It was apparently a Windows update, probably KB2785220.

I have restored full functionality again. I guess I'm hoping someone here has experienced something similar or at least has some ideas of what to try next.
#DOCK AND UNDOCK MENUS INKSCAPE PC#
But I use this PC extensively for many tasks throughout the day, and nothing else seems to be affected. So it would seem to be a more generic issue and not necessarily directly related to GIMP. I even reverted back to GIMP 2.6.12 and it doesn't work there now either. gimp-2.8 directory in case there was some odd, lingering corruption. On the affected PC, I've uninstalled and reinstalled GIMP, rebooted, even completely deleted the. I run GIMP on two separate Windows PCs, and this is only happening on one of them. If GIMP loses focus (I click the desktop or some other window), then the next button click within GIMP works fine again, but then subsequent ones do not. Pressing ENTER at that point does activate the button, but clicking has no effect. Clicking them just selects them (dashed box around them) but do not activate them. The first time I click a button, like the "new layer" button, it usually works. One other possibly related issue is that I have problems using the buttons in these dialogs. It always just moves the individual dialog window to the new location. But instead of reordering them, it simply undocks the one I tried to move. If I want to reorder the tabs of docked dialogs, like tool options, layers, paths, etc., I click and drag one to a new location. The layers remain in their original order.Ī similar issue exists for docked dialogs. And when I release the mouse button, nothing happens. But there is no indication under the mouse of where it will end up (no black line showing between layers). Clicking and dragging seems to be working. For example, if I have multiple layers and I want to reorder them, I can't simply drag one to a new position.

Sometime shortly after I upgraded from 2.6.? to 2.8.2, but not immediately, I lost the ability to drag and drop elements in the user interface.

But I just can't figure out how to resolve it.

The problem I'm having is apparently not common, as I'm sure there would be huge outcry if it were. UI drag and drop issues prevent layer reorder or dialog tab reorder Please log in to manage your subscriptions.
