A locked view TaurusGui should not accept panels dropped to it (but it does).

This ticket will be rejected because the behavior is coming from qt, and it depends on its version.

Version 4.4.3 does not allow to move docked widgets when they are in floating state and lockView is active.

However version 4.7.4 allow moving the floating panel that if it is moved a little it is automatically placed and docked inside the main window; even if not placing it explicitly inside the main window. Only the fact of moving the floating widget in lockView state, places the widget inside the main window.

The desired behavior when lockView is activated would be to allow moving floating windows, but do not allow them to be docked inside the main window application. This is not the case and the behavior cannot be changed. We reject the ticket.

    This bug is happening in suse 12.

    In suse11 the panels are blocked (in lockView mode)even if they are out of the main tauruswindow (they cannot be moved in lockView mode).
