[Lotus Notes Sucks: Example 72]

Drag-and-Drop Multiple Attachments From a Mail Message

Problem

Selecting two or more attachments and then dragging them onto your Desktop doesn't work properly.

To reproduce the problem

Select two or more attachments in a mail message.
Drag the attachments onto your Desktop.

Notice that only one attachment is actually dropped onto the Desktop.

Analysis

Lotus Notes 6.5.2 has seemed to fixed some of the problems with drag-and-drop operations, but not this one: Lotus Notes should drop all the selected attachments, not just one, to the Desktop.

User Interface Guideline Violations

Interface does not do as the user expects.
Forcing the user to do more work than necessary.
Forcing the user to deal with stupidity.

Conclusion

Lotus Notes sucks.
