In the gallery, when you right-click on a gallery image, the mouse turns into drag-and-drop mode as soon as you move the mouse. For example, I right click to "insert as background image." on a button image I found in the right-hand side gallery sidebar. When I move the mouse, the cursor changes to a plus-hand. But it does with this everything - including a right click and then choosing nothing, but clicking outside of the popup menu to close it. Basically, as soon as you right-click, you are in drag and drop mode. This started in LO 7.0 with commit fa8c85fa90e9565a357b247a69f930098d11ff84 Author: Caolán McNamara on Thu Jan 16 16:38:15 2020 +0000 weld gallery panel Assuming this is a GTK only problem because I can avoid it by running SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen instdir/program/soffice CC: Caolán
happens with GDK_BACKEND=x11 but not my default of GDK_BACKEND=wayland which must be why I never noticed until now
