Dragging highlighted text not possible

[harl]

I have a probably minor issue with ScrollbarAnywhere enabled. That is, it seems to make dragging highlighted text impossible on most (or all) pages, which renders certain other extensions rather useless, like Super Drag (or Drag and Go), as well as dragging textual links to the location bar.
If you could somehow fix that one thing, I would be grateful for it.

Also, just on a side note though, ScrollbarAnywhere doesn't seem to work on certain pages at all, like the chrome.google.com/webstore - I guess the reason for this is the way those pages are being generated within iframes, but maybe you'd know a way how to add a workaround for that.

Other than that, I like ScrollbarAnywhere very much and haven't had any real issues with it.

Which mouse button are you using to drag? If you're using left mouse button, there is an obvious conflict and i'm not sure it's something that can be solved in a good way, but i'll give it a shot. I can't promise it'll be done soon though, since i have a full time job taking most of my time.

Google does not allow any extensions to run on their web store and some other pages, for security reasons. There's nothing i can do about that.

I'm glad you like it!

Yep, I'm using the left mouse button to drag/scroll. When using Firefox portable off my external drive, it's got this extension called "Grab and Drag", which basically works the same way as ScrollbarAnywhere and includes a few options to decide whether dragging in the content area always scrolls the page (except with flash content obviously) or clicking on areas with text, input fields or images would let me click and drag those elements. So, for example when I want to highlight and drag text, I have to double click somewhere (that is not a link) and when I'm finished highlighting, dragging/copying I single click at a non-text non-image area and I can grab anything non-flash again to scroll the page.
So it's similar to ScrollbarAnywhere in this, but I guess it's different somewhere around the point where it disables the "drag to scroll" part and ScrollbarAnywhere doesn't completely disable it, so it starts scrolling the page as soon as the cursor moves while the mouse button is down.
I guess, to keep extensions like Super Drag still working on highlighted text (and non-coded URIs), ScrollbarAnywhere would either have to check if there actually is highlighted text (or if the cursor is hovering text) or it would have to include an on/off toggle for these actions like Grab and Drag does.

I'm still able to reproduce this issue. Reopening.
