Comment 28 for bug 520118

@Lionel Le Folgoc

That's interesting. Looking at the exo-tree-view.c file, I gather the impression that exo_noop_false would be required to prevent gtk from deselecting rows other than the clicked one. However, in practice I am not able to replicate this with the exo patched libexo-0.3.so.0.5.0 mentioned earlier. Over the last few days I have tried all manner of multiple select drag n drop routines with the patched exo in Lucid, and have not encountered any anomalies in Thunar's behaviour. The only difference apparent is the eradication of bug 520118. So I wonder why this kludge isn't breaking multiple-select drag n drop for me? I'm guessing that exo_noop_false has served its purpose once the select function is reset to NULL. Anyway, I'm finding the patched exo to be the lesser evil so far, hopefully a real fix will come along soon.
