The drag and drop feature not working beginning version 59, for application. The drag and drop operation working when running the firefox in debug mode. But not working in real time. We use Dojo framework to drag and drop objects from one container to another container (or division). This stopped working after version 59 release. At the same time when drag and drop using both mouse buttons works as expected. Any idea why this is behaving this way

Did you mean Firefox Safe Mode?

It could be the work of one of your add-ons, or it could be Hardware Acceleration. How to disable Hardware Acceleration {web link}

Type about:addons<enter> in the address bar to open your Add-ons Manager. Hot key; <Control> (Mac=<Command>) <Shift> A)

In the Add-ons Manager, on the left, select Extensions. Disable a few add-ons, then Restart Firefox.

Some added toolbar and anti-virus add-ons are known to cause Firefox issues. Disable All Of them.

If the problem continues, disable some more (restarting FF). Continue until the problem is gone. After, you know what group is causing the issue. Re-enable the last group ONE AT A TIME (restarting FF) until the problem returns.

Once you think you found the problem, disable that and re-enable all the others, then restart again. Let us know who the suspect is, detective.

Hi FredMcD,

This not resolved the issue. we have the drag and drop feature with in our application. That helps to drag and drop objects from one place to another place. The drag and drop with in a application pane (same div)works , but when trying to drag and drop from different div not supported. we are using Dojo in our code base.
