faire glisser v. tr.


Explanation:
Informatique

(Je vous soumets cette alternative pour la note qui suit, sans plus.)

Déf. :
Déplacer la souris en maintenant le bouton enfoncé, ce qui a pour effet, soit de faire bouger à l'écran un objet préalablement sélectionné, soit d'étendre une sélection dans un document ou un fichier.

Note(s) :
On « fait » glisser à l'écran un objet sélectionné à l'aide de la souris. Dans le présent contexte, l'emploi du terme glisser sans le verbe faire constituerait une tournure inhabituelle, voire même imprécise, car, utilisé seul, celui-ci, lorsqu'il est transitif direct, a normalement le sens d'« introduire dans » (ex. : glisser une carte à puce dans un lecteur).
