           Summary: moving a class causes the view to center to the moved
                    class  (very annoying when the diagram is big enough)
           Product: umbrello
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Debian testing
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: umbrello-devel.kde.org
        ReportedBy: pjaaskel cs tut fi


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.3.0)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:                Linux

Because this affects usability very much in my opinion, I entered it in the bug report section.

The problem can be seen when you have a big diagram so you have to use scroll bars when zoomed close
enough. If you have a class near the rightmost side of the visible area, you select it and start to move it, Umbrello centers the view to the class that is being moved. This way it gets very irritating to try to move the class left in the diagram because the left part is scrolled out of the visible
area.

Additionally, moving a class to the leftmost part of the visible area doesn't "autoscroll" the canvas,
so one has to scroll manually, try to move the class a bit more to the left and so on. Well, the
autoscrolling part should be in the feature request section probably.

I tried the 16.09.2004 snapshot and the problem is there.
