<pre>Control-drag-drop in Writer doesn’t copy
Drag and drop with <ctrl> key is meant to copy text, but it only moves it and
does not preserve the original.
Method to reproduce
1. Create a new text document in Writer
2. Enter three lines of text, eg **Paragraph one of text \<enter>Paragraph two
of text \<enter>Paragraph three of text**
3. Use the mouse or keyboard to highlight the first line of text.
4. Use the mouse to drag the first line to the start of the third line. Before
dropping the text, press and hold the <ctrl> key. The mouse icon changes to a
copy icon with a ‘+’ symbol.
5. Release the mouse button and then the <ctrl> key. The text is moved from
the first line and not copied.
