[Sugar-devel] [GSoC] Updates on Bulletin Board

Yeah, dragging is detectable in that case too. I wanted to put it it
differently. I forgot to mention in the previous mail if we consider the
dragging and selection, the cursor would be the text selection cursor and
also it may happen that a text portion is selected and the widget is being
dragged along with it at the same time. This might create a mess.

I coudn't get a clear picture of your alternative solution.

operations. So in my opinion it will either drag or select a portion of the
text.

I'd suggest you put a "handle" on chat window to drag from instead of a
button in the middle of the window (maybe a 'hand' button).
