When double clicking an a heading in the Navigator user is then in drag mode to reorganise the headings. But the issue is that de dragmode stays enabled. Every click on the heading and then moving the cursor will move de heading. It isn't possible to just click to navigate to the heading in the document as a click and moving the cursor will move the heading. Shouldn't the default behavior be that after a double click in the navigator and dragging the heading the drag mode goes back to disabled again making a single click jump the the heading in the documment. How to reproduce: 1. double click an a heading in the writer navigator 2. drag a heading to rearrange it in the tree view 3. click on another header 4. move your cursor 5. heading in the navigator is dragged.
Vincent, thank you for reporting the bug. But I can't see a drag-mode. Is it a special option, I have to enable?

Can you confirm the problem?
Hi Vincent, I'm guessing your are using VLC: gtk3 and X11 display protocol. Menu > Help > About LibreOffice will show information like this: Version: 25.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 38ce16a9519ad7c612b782d6f645c7b8f3fa353c CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded You can check what display protocol is being used by opening a terminal and entering: echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE Mine shows: wayland When using wayland, I *do not* repro the unwanted single click drag behavior you have described. When using x11 I *do* repro the unwanted single click drag behavior you have described.
Hello, Here is my LibreOffice info: Version: 24.2.5.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: bffef4ea93e59bebbeaf7f431bb02b1a39ee8a59 CPU threads: 16; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: fr-BE (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded Indeed I'm using VCL: gtk3. How can I avoid this issue ? Many Thanks !

You could try searching the web for 'How to switch between Xorg and Wayland in linux'. It can be done in Ubuntu at the login screen. Searching for 'Drag and drop issue gnome' gives some results that explain why it doesn't work with Xorg but works with Wayland. I don't think this is something that can be fixed internally in the LibreOffice code but I'm not an expert in gtk doings.
Indeed, GTK is now focusing on Wayland, so their devs will not fix such issues. Wayland is production-ready these days anyway: https://wearewaylandnow.com/
