In 3.4, while creating a post you could select a portion of text, click and drag it to a new location.  Kind of a nice feature.  Can the 4.0 editor be configured to do the same with both text as well as pictures?  

This is especially good with pictures, because with 4.0, the only way to move a picture in your post is to delete and re-insert it (as far as I know).

No .. can not .. it seems when you start dragging text there is a text cursor following between other text where you wanna drop it .. but the drop doesn't happen .. pictures don't move ..

Maybe there is some CKEditor tweaks around on their site ..

With a visual editor like this, it kind of makes sense for drag and drop?

Ha - hadn't noticed this at all. That functionality is 'by default' in ckeditor and I believe is provided by the 'clipboard' plugin. I wonder if IPS code is conflicting somehow here.

I suggest you log it as a bug. Here's the link to the demo page for ckeditor for you play around with to confirm the functionality:

YES that's how I would expect it to work!

I know, hence why I suggested you log it as a bug

I did, thank you for the like it was helpful.
