Description Kevin Barnes CLA 2008-01-21 18:38:47 EST 
If you CTRL-Click in the package explorer, the menu doesn't appear until mouse up, or until you move the mouse around a little. We're blocked in a call to WaitMouseMoved at the end our dragDetect method.

If the ctrl button is down we should probably avoid the call to dragDetect.

Still happening?  I thought we fixed the issue by running deferred events more often.  KB, please investigate.

I _think_ we fixed right click, but not ctrl-click.

Yes, that's what I see in I20080909-1121.

Lord.  I think that avoiding drag detect when control is down sounds bad ... but might be ok on the Mac.  Certainly on Windows, key modifiers affect the drag and drop operation.

Works for me (also with Ctrl+Click) in I20090515-1143 Cocoa.
Comment 6 Scott Kovatch CLA 2010-10-12 17:49:41 EDT 
This is Carbon-only, so it won't be fixed at this point.
