Hi all,

Sorry to resurect this thread but now i made some app which implements drag & drop.

I start the app and drag & drop doesnt work initially. However after i drag and drop in another app in windows , my application magically start to work also.

I use qt 4.7.3.

Any ideas?

 I hate to bring such an old thread back to life, but just in case others come across this, press [esc].  This seems to fix the issue.

This feels like a bug in Qt Designer. I has been happening to me, every time I close Designer when pressing Escape or when I cancel out of a selection or dialog with Escape. It feels really bad. And I can fix it using the tricks mentioned here, but has anyone reported it?

I never noticed this in earlier versions of Qt. Is anyone against me reporting this bug?

Running Qt Designer 4.0.1 (MSVC2013, 32 bit) on Windows 7. I still have the same problem with the drag and drop.

The trick which involves clicking ESC in Windows Explorer works for a short moment, until I select a different widget. It's really annoying.
