drag and drop

[zakhmi]

I have just installed fedora 14 on my laptop.In GNOME i am not able to copy a file by drag and drop to any other folder or drive.Besides i cannot play any video file by draging it to mplayer.Although i can play the file by double clicking it.please help....

If you hold Cltr key it will copy paste, if you just use the mouse centre wheel it will give you a option when dropping the file..
as regards dropping vid on mplayer, i dont know, i dont use mplayer, but it works for me in totem.

Thanks for your reply.I have tried doing that too.But nothing happens.It doesn't give any option.In previous fedora versions as soon as i used to drag and release a file,it used to get copied.Even when i try to add an audio file to playlist by draging it doesn't work.

Ok here i have noticed something.I created a new user account.Drag and drop seems to be working fine in it.Then why its not working in my user account?any idea?
