Cusomising tool bar icons moves entire window instead of icons

Recommended Posts

Wanted to move some furniture around (tool bar icons) and came across this glitch: Re-arranging the icons drags the entire window when click-dragging an icon. ๐Ÿ˜

1. Enter the "Customise toolbar" mode via right-click on tool barย 
2. Click-drag any icon sideways

In some cases it is possible to move an icon, mainly when dragging it straight down and then sideways. See screen recording.

Hi @user_0815,
I'm having trouble reproducing this here. What OS version are you running?
Seems you have set the menu bar to hide automatically in the macOS Systems Settings, Desktop & Dock section. Can you confirm please?
Are you running any third party utilities that may be interfering here (window management utilities etc)?

@MEB, I've been observing a similar issue on Catalina since v2.0.0.
Usually it happens when trying to drag fast. To avoid it, one has to click and hold a bit longer.

Interesting.

The MBP has a built-in trackpad although I am/was using the Apple Magic Mouse which also has that touch surface built in for scrolling in any direction like a track pad.

In very rare cases, some apps recognise a click for a drag. Perhaps because the finger moves on the touch surface when clicking.

Are you using a trackpad too?

Yes, MacBook Pro mid-2012
