Mozilla will not allow you to drag links into the personal toolbar as you can do in netscape 4 and MISE.

Drop on the toolbar is not supported. See Pinkerton's comments on bug 21510.

Wait, I am a stupid man. *Drops* are supported, but not *drags*. Reopening and confirming.

Edit|Preferences. In the 'Debug' pane under Miscellaneous click on 'Personal Toolbar Drag & Drop (buggy)'

I'm not exactly sure what the disposition of bugs like this should be (or if there's a dupe), given the state of toolbar D&D. Pink knows though, so I'm reassigning to him and I'll learn from this one.

future

Note that an unfortunate side effect of this bug is that if you drag and drop a bookmark you've created onto the "Bookmarks Toolbar" (which I think is the new name for what we used to call the Personal Toolbar), the link does get added to the Bookmarks pulldown menu UI (visible and usable via Bookmarks-->Bookmark Toolbar-->W3), but not on the Bookmark Toolbar itself, which is confusingly inconsistent to the user.

Eric, you got this error to happen with the pref I mentioned turned off? I am completely unable to reproduce this on any platform. If this is happening then I would consider it a more significant failure. with m17 branch builds and the 2000080414-m18 builds

I'm confused. The original bug here is invalid because d&d works if you turn it on (and it will be on by default shortly). I'm away, but per Eric's comment, the personal toolbar is now the bookmarks toolbar?

Sorry, I was running in the default configuration, which from your comments appears to mean that this functionality was disabled. (Didn't know about the existence of this pref.) Per your other comments, sounds like this will soon be on by default, so I'm closing this as INVALID.

soon be on by default? with all the crashes that we know people will encounter futured?

er...which crashes are these? I know of one, regarding drop-in folders, and Ben said he'd get hyatt to take a look.

this has never worked for me

I think this bug as originally reported should be 'futured' but not invalid. repening.

So will it be enabled by default or not? BTW in is not only Mac...

pushing over to BenG for him to turn this feature back on post ns6.

I think this is the same as bug 44413.

Adding dependency on bug 56805.

i turned this feature on in prefs, but it still doesn#t work!!! does it need a restart???

Nope, this feature definetely doesn't work yet (latest build and milestone0.7). Any progress so far?

Reassigning to alecf since he's working on this. Alecf, if this is a dupe of another bug on your plate feel free to mark this as such.

unfortunately, I did not even have time to look at this for moz 0.9. Moving to 0.9.1 and maintaining priority.. sorry!

hight time for keyword: *Mostfreq* - sooo many dupes :) I would also suggest *nsCatFood* because this is a serious user satisfaction issue.

alright already, I'm working in it. Please no advocacy in bugs, let's keep the discussion to technical issues!

ok, this by no means fixes this bug, but it updates the visual feedback when you're doing a drag/drop.. the actual drop is somewhat broken. looking for r=/sr= A few things this does: - adds some bulletproofing - fixes it so that for toolbar bookmarks, you can only drag to the left or right, but not on top...and for folders you can drag on top, or to the left or right - adds pleasant visual feedback for these behaviors, such as a 3d outline around folders that you're dropping onto - cleans up some of the drag on/after/before stuff so we don't have to know what magic numbers like "-1" mean and can use constants instead.

add pink to the CC, I think he's supposed to help me :)

Alec, is dragging a URL from the personal toolbar to the bookmarks sidebar tab also covered by this? thanks, vishy

also, is dragging and dropping within the toolbar (i.e. reordering p toolbar elements by dnd) covered by this bug?

no, and no...

Alec/Pink how's this going? Are we going to make it for mozilla0.9.1 on this?

I've checked in everything I have and have been focusing on startup performance, as I explained last week

as i seemed to inherit a slew of critical/crasher bugs while i was on vacation, i don't believe i'll have time to help alecf.

*** Bug 79959 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

This is a show stopper, IMO. Of the complaints about N6, this was one of the top 3.

just an update that no progress has been made on this beyond the feedback itself.. I'm swamped with startup performance work... :( I agree this is an N6.5 rtm stopper, but can we get by nsbeta1 without it?

i'm not sure this is even an rtm stopper. i'd rather we focus development effort on fixing speed, stability, and making the features we currently have work before we spend more time working on new ones.

thanks for the update. yes we're considering postponing to rtm or getting ben to work on it.

At the moment this is not a feature but a bug because the Personal Toolbar is registered as a dropzone, and dragging bookmarks to the toolbar gives visual feedback that the bookmark is accepted when dropping it there. If it is postponed it would probably be better to turn off the personal toolbar as a dropzone.

I would better wait a week for fixing it... Or is the lesson of Netscape 6.0 as a non complete, bugfull and featureless final release is already forgotten? Whith this fix we will win another 0.1% of users!!!

Adding helpwanted as per plario's request, though I am going to hold off on adding nscatfood, for two reasons: 1. I am not part of netscape, and therefore do not have an interest in nscp user satisfaction. 2. IMHO, This is not such a _HUGE_ issue that it is really catfood.

ben's going to take this, reassigning to him.

This morning's builds had a bug ( bug 80746 ) which may have led to a Bugzilla user inadvertantly changing this bug from the Assignbed/Accepted status to the New status. If you are the owner of this bug please check to see that it is in the correct Status. Thanks.

At the very least, the dropzone must be turned off if this feature does not work properly. I dragged a bookmark into my personal toolbar on my win98 machine at home and it *erased* all my personal toolbar bookmarks!!!

This bug should be moved to m0.9.2 in favor of fixing bug 78882 for the beta.

nav triage: a tough decision, esp for the PM ( :-) ) but lets defer this to post m0.9.1.

Joe said he wanted to do this.

fixed

you mean we can now drag links into personal toolbar, or we fixed the problem that it drags "null"?

Yes, you can now drag links into the personal toolbar.

Is there a bug filled about the removal of the pref ?

VERIFIED Fixed with 2001053108 builds on all platforms

Unable to drag URL to toolbar in 0.9.3 You CAN drag into a FOLDER on the toolbar, however.

Marking mosfreq (14 dups)

This works fine for me. Please retest.

I there a bug for DnD to choosed location in a folder on the personal toolbar (not to the bottom of it)? Also right-click menu inside a folder to edit/rename/remove etc the bookmark (works on the personal toolbar bookmark, but not inside a folder) does not exists. I was surprised since I couldn't find bugs for this major Personal Toolbar features... Should I fillthe bugs or there already bugs for it?

>I there a bug for DnD to choosed location in a folder on the personal toolbar >(not to the bottom of it)? bug 53707, RFE: dragging a link onto bookmarks button should open menu >Also right-click menu inside a folder to edit/rename/remove etc the bookmark >(works on the personal toolbar bookmark, but not inside a folder) does not >exists. Bug 50504, Context menu for bookmarks menus You should be able to find any other related bugs using dependency trees or collect buglinks <http://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/mozilla.html> on those two bugs.

Return of...... a BUG !!!!!!! When I drag a Link into the Personal Toolbar, it disapears !! I use Mozilla 0.9.8 . It didn't even works when I install Mozilla after a total deinstall!

This apparently still happens for some profiles, probably because of something that happened using a prior version of the product. Jens, can you try it in a new profile and see if that fixes it? If so, it's probably better to open a new bug so we can try to figure out what's unique about the failing profile. (Elaine King also experiences this problem with current builds.)
