Dialog after clicking four rows

Quoting original submitter:
---
I have two IMAP accounts and two local ones; I added the second IMAP
account recently and Claws-Mail can't put its mailbox in second
position. With "Reorganize mailboxes" I can see the four of them, but
the buttons "up" and "down" are greyed out.
---

I've also checked git version and it behave the same, disabled buttons and seems unable to select any of the listed mailboxes; instead only the top and bottom lines of the hypothetical selection-highlighting rectangle are drawn, but background remains white. And these are not removed when selecting other row, see attached screenshot.

Thanks in advance.

Just a note for anyone facing this issue: Drag'n'drop does work, so this is how to re-order mailboxes for now.

I've found that double-clicking on the account names in the re-order dialogue box causes the "up/down" buttons to become active and the accounts may be re-ordered successfully.

I would recommend rejecting/closing this bug report.

AFAICS this only works for subfolders, but toplevel mailboxes cannot be rearranged that way. Tried (hard) with a 3-mailbox configured Claws Mail (MH, News and My Feeds) and was unable to move their positions in the folder list
(using git version).

The focus rectangle on rows is also broken (see attached picture) so don't really understand the bug title change, unless a separate bug report for the focus issue is preferred. Is it?

Uh, indeed, that works. But it's a bit counter-intuitive. Single click should be enough, like any other list we have.

Changing this to a RFE for using single click instead :-)

Ricardo, nothing special, d'n'd "just works" for me.
I can also verify that double-clicking activates the up/down buttons, but previously this was activated on 1 click only.
