Error description

  • Issue reproduced in Chrome (MacOS) Version 26.0.1410.65,
    Windows 7 IE 8 (compatibility view - without this it doesn't
    work at all), Firefox 20.0.1 (Windows 7), and Firefox 12.0 on
    MacOS.
    
    What happens is that whenever a drag and drop of dependencies
    or originating workflows onto a target, a little pop-up area
    follows the mouse pointer (with dependency information).  The
    design intent was to show the details of what is currently
    being dragged.  However, the information never removes and upon
    another drag, they will just keep multiplying, the previous
    ones no longer follow the mouse pointer but they are not
    removed.  Functionally it seems to be making the changes
    resulting from the drag and drop operations, but this UI issue
    makes it very difficult to use for more than a couple of drag
    and drops.  The information should dissolve after the action
    has completed.
    

Local fix

  • Perform dependency associations manually instead
