Description

Expected Behavior

Please describe what should happen

Expected the blocks to remain below the workspace while click+dragging the entire workspace

Actual Behavior

Describe what actually happens

drag-indexing

Dragging the entire workspace seems to pop all the blocks onto a layer above the zoom controls. This is particularly surprising because scrolling with the scrollbars does not.

Reported by @carljbowman at one of our internal tests.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the workspace drag shown in the linked GIF and compare it with scrolling using the scrollbars. Trace how dragging changes the workspace and zoom-control layering; done means blocks remain below the zoom controls while the entire workspace is dragged.
