Description Jan Lahoda 2005-07-25 10:19:20 UTC

Recent sources of the core/palette and core/navigator (from the navigator_58819
branch).

I have a (text) editor which provides content into both palette and navigator.
The problem is that when I select the palette, the content of the navigator
disappears. I think that the navigator's content should survive focus change
into the palette.

Too late for NB5.0, please reevaluate.

Comment 4 Jiri Kopsa 2006-04-23 16:29:14 UTC

This issue does not only apply to text editing (as highlighted in the intial
comment of this issue), but has also fundamental impact on Orchestration
Designer of the NB Enterprise Pack. Morover, as we proceed with integrating
Inspector and Navigator, we may want to have DnD from palette to
navigator/inspector also in GUI Builder. All these might be considered as an
efficiency improvement for the expert users. However the predictability of such
an interaction seems to be a significant improvement and thus we think the
feature is quite important. 

What is the earliest possible timeframe for the fix?
