Description Stéphane Guillou (stragu) 2023-10-21 07:03:48 UTC
This is a follow-up on bug 116384, as part of the issue remains.

Steps:
1. Open attachment 190359 [details]
2. Drag-select inside the hyperlink many times, in different directions (avoiding the first and last characters)

Result: inconsistent behaviour, sometimes it drags the hyperlink, sometimes it selects a text section.

With other VCL plugins that gtk, the behaviour is to only drag-and-drop the whole hyperlink, so it should be made consistent with them for the time being (regardless of what happens with bug 39015).

Caolán, thought you might be interested.
