    Question Text dragging?

    Before my recent reformat, I was able to highlight text, and drag it up into the tab space to have google search for it in a new tab without having to do any real effort. Now when I try it, it gives me a not allowed mouse cursor. How can I regain this function?

    did you previously had an extension installed?
    What version of Chrome are you running?
