Description Ray Holme 2021-04-18 20:57:44 UTC

Description of problem: Before this release (fedora 33 and someone else noted fedora 34) we could move a gedit tool file window from one tool to another, now we can only more a window to make a new tool

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible: 100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. gedit two files in one tool, and in another tool gedit one or more files
2. attempt to move the file in one to the other tool
3.

Actual results: Can only move a sub-window for the file to the background to make a new tool.  This feature used to work and was GREAT. Please put it back.


Expected results: In Fedora 32, I could move from one gedit tool to another as needed.


Additional info: This appears to have gone away in the current gedit (fedora 33 and 34) - I asked in the Fedora Forum and another person noted the same change.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 33 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 33 on 2021-11-30.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
Fedora 'version' of '33'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 33 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 3 Ben Cotton 2021-11-30 18:34:47 UTC

Fedora 33 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2021-11-30. Fedora 33 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
