Description
The drag and drop functionality has more often than not misfired and caused an unwanted move. The other issue I have is that when an unwanted move does happen, moving that file back up to the proper directory requires that I set the screen resolution to microsopic size because the mouse does not trigger a move of the directory treeview control.
So to sum this up:
- Turn On\Off drag-drop functionality in the client to stop unwanted moves.
- Add in scrolling support for the treeview controls when the mouse cursor reaches the edge to better support file movement.

I think you're referring to the "click-lock" feature under the mouse in the control panel. Tablet PC Windows versions has option for distance activation, but that's it. I looked up and down for issues and resolutions before opening the ticket.
I can however assure you that this IS an issue, but it doesn't happen all the time. What I have noticed is that it only happens in the Server's Treeview control. Unfortunately, FileZilla is the only app I have experienced this with because it's the only app I use that has a file manager type function on a remote machine.
I've built enough applications to know that there are enough potential issues to warrant some sort of option when a problem is sporadic. To name a few that CAN cause this type of issue:
- Internet Connection Stability
- Wireless Mice
- Slow or unreliable hardware
It's also not limited to just Windows;

There's an option somewhere in Windows to change the distance needed for the mouse pointer to move while holding down a mouse button before the drag starts. Simply set that value high enough, no more misfire.
