[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #53276] GUI: undocked panes cannot be moved, or resized along upper border

[Philip Nienhuis]

Follow-up Comment #40, bug #53276 (project octave):

With the new patch from comment #31:
For undocked panels the issues I have are still the same.
Some new observations:
* If there's no file in the undocked editor (gray screen), there's no way at
all to resize the panel. Once File|New is clicked, the cursor in the lover
right corner of the file status bar changes into a diagonal resize cursor.
* I didn't know about double-clicking the title bar to dock / undock. Nice!
* I'll attach a screenshot nevertheless of the situation after I
double-clicked the (tabbed) Documentation pane. At first it disappeaed and the
menu entries in the main menu didn't work. The (docked) File Browser and
Command history still reacted, but the (docked) Workspace was unresponsive.
After a while and some clicking around the Documentation pane reappeared, and
I could drag it (it had a blue title bar) but there was also a ghost
Documentation pane tabbed & docked with the Terminal pane. Weird. 
During the time Octave's panels were unresponsive, other programs (browser)
didn't respond either.

BTW Torsten's observation (comment #39) about comment #10 is accurate. 

What do I need to do to apply patch in comment #36 ? First rollback yours from
comment #31?
