Description Kai Uwe Broulik 2012-11-27 13:50:13 UTC

[Using master]
The desktop icon plasmoid does no longer launch an application anymore. It used to work a few days ago, then it suddenly broke. When you click the icon, the mousedown effecton does not launch. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open kickoff and drag any application, such as systemsettings or dolphin, onto your workspace (make sure widgets are unlocked)
2. Click the icon that got created
3.
Actual Results:  
The mousedown effect is applied but nothing happens

Expected Results:  
The application starts normal

Also true with other file formats such as pictures (ie. drag a file onto the workspace and select "Icon" from the Widgets section of the popup menu)

I can also reproduce it using master. It doesn't work when widgets are unlocked.

don't register the icon as a dragable with the applet

this causes events to be intercepted which prevent launching when
the applet is movable.
