Fixture Locations within Fixture Group (4.8.5)

I'm using OSX (MAC)

I went to arrange some fixtures inside a group and it will not drag and drop. I tried starting a new project and same thing happens.

If I delete the fixture, click the location and then select to add a fixture it will go to the selected location.

May be related to Qt5.4.1.

I think I've encountered the issue.

Is this what happens:

You can drag a fixture, move it over another place, but the mouse icon stays on "forbidden" state, and releasing it does nothing.

?

Should be this Qt bug: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-45037

No problem on Qt5.4.0 but Qt5.4.1 seems to break some stuff...




To devs:
It's possible to fix this by changing the table dragDropMode from InternalMove to DragDrop.
It's also possible to wait for the Qt team to fix this bug. :)

Apparently Qt 5.4.2 is almost ready. Let's see if it fixes this issue.
Otherwise I can produce an OSX build based on 5.4.0

I've just dropped my 2 cents here

Let's see if they have ears to hear...

FYI, the fix will be included in Qt5.4.2 :)

Yepp ! I followed the troublesome integration on Gerrit but in the end it went upstream ! (the usual damn test units ! ;) )
So as soon as Qt 5.4.2 will be released, I'll produce an OSX TEST version to check if everything's OK

Thanks for the updates.

I did find that if you move the cursor outside the group of boxes and bring it back it will place the fixture for you. Just a work-around for now

Later

As promised, TEST version available here: viewtopic.php?f=12&t=3135

I downloaded a snapshot of Qt 5.4.2 as it has not been released yet. It should contain the fix we're intersted in though.
If everything goes according to plans, the snapshot I downloaded could be the official Qt release anyway.

Please give it a try and tell us if the issue has gone away
