Using pop-up navigation always moves files

[humdinger]

This is hrev32189.

I have a second partition.
If I take a file from there and drag it over my home folder on the boot partition, pop-up navigation let's me drill down through various subfolders. If I now release the mousebutton, the file is put into that subfolder.
So far, all is OK. _But_: The file came from another partition and should therefore been copied, _not_ moved.

If possible, a right-drag-and-drill-down could end with the usual context menu "Create Link/Move/Copy Here". If so, the context menu has to appear before the pop-up navi panels have collapsed again. We want to keep seeing where exactly a file was dropped.

Also, is there a long time-out before the pop-up navigation starts, or is that due to running in VirtualBox? It fells very long...

Replying to humdinger:

That part is somewhat nontrivial to handle. For the time being I've fixed it in hrev32210 to use the same copy vs move logic that's used elsewhere.

Also, is there a long time-out before the pop-up navigation starts, or is that due to running in VirtualBox? It fells very long...

It's around 2-3 seconds or so. In any case, I believe you can override the timeout by holding down shift while dragging.

Thanks for the quik fix!

OK, but why?! :)
I don't see a reason for this long a delay. You don't want to spring up pop-navs all over the place while dragging a file around, but sitting on top of a folder for max. 0.5 seconds without wiggling more than +/-2 pixels around should be really enough. (Dunno about the wiggling-part, but a shortened timeout would be very appreciated.)
