Description David Balažic CLA 2012-06-18 09:58:22 EDT 
Build Identifier: 20120606-2254

When dragging a border between UI areas ("sash" , I believe), like between the editor and the Problems view, the operation can not be canceled.

An example where this works is most Microsoft apps, like Outlook. When a such divider is dragged there, pressing the ESCAPE key cancels the operation and the state before the drag is restored.

Tested with Indigo Java EE SR-2 and Eclipse for Testers RC3 (eclipse-testing-juno-RC3-win32.zip)

Reproducible: Always

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. As such, we're closing this bug.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
