           Summary: Problem when moving end point of line outside of parent
           Product: kst
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kst kde org
        ReportedBy: arwalker sumusltd com


Version:           HEAD (using KDE KDE 3.5.0)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
OS:                Linux

PROBLEM:
The "clipping" behaviour when an end point of a line is moved outside of its parent is inconsistent with the behaviour during line creation and is overly simplistic

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
Start Kst
Create a line in the default window (this works best in childframe mode)
Switch to layout mode
Select the line
Click on an endpoint of the line
Drag the endpoint outside of the window and move it around

RESULTS:
The line is "clipped" to the window by a simplistic algortihm such that the line does not lie between the fixed end-point and the cursor.

EXPECTED RESULTS:
The line is "clipped" such that it does lie between the fixed end-point and the cursor, as is the case during creation of a new line.
