Description collura 2011-06-06 10:13:53 UTC

Description of problem:

  in gnome2 tray could mouse over an program in a workspace thumbnail and hold down mouse button and drag the program from that workspace thumbnail to the thumbnail of another workspace and release the mousebutton to move the program to that workspace. 

  in gnome3 gnome-shell with avant-window-navigator extras-applet "shiny-switcher" the workspaces appear in the tray but cant drag programs among the thumbnails but need to use clickmenu 'move to workspace' items instead of just dragging.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

  avant-window-navigator-0.4.0-4.fc15 (x86_64)
  awn-extras-applets-0.4.0-27.fc15 (x86_64) (contains shiny-switcher)

How reproducible:

  always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open program in gnome-shell workspace
2. open another program in another workspace of gnome-shell
3. try to drag program from one workspace thumbnail to another 
  
Actual results:

  cant grab programs in thumbnail or drag between

Expected results:

  be able to grab program in thumbnail and drag to thumbnail of other workspace

Additional info:

  didnt find as much documentation/forumthreads on shiny switcher as hoped so not yet sure if this is actually a bug or a missing feature so filing here for now and will file upstream if determined is missing feature instead of broken feature.

Comment 1 Tim Lauridsen 2011-06-06 16:33:39 UTC

The has been some changes to how workspaces are handled in gnome-shell, so it somehow break the drag & drop in the "shiny-switcher" applet.

I have tested in the latest upstream bzr an it have the same issue.
