Description Alexander Diewald 2015-08-27 06:54:59 UTC
Hello,

the application launchers allow to be associated with a keyboard shortcut to be opened quickly, e.g. Alt+F1. When using this mechanism for the standard application launcher or the minimal one, the behaviour is like expected, i.e. the corresponding application launcher is shown upon pressing the key combo.
However, when I try to use this mechanism with the dashboard, the minimal application launcher is shown upon keypress, instead of the dashboard. When I click on the dashboard launcher with my mouse, the dashboard shows correctly.

Best regards,
Alexander

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Choose the dashboard as application launcher
2. Set a shortcut in the properties
3. Press the shortcut

Actual Results:  
Instead of the dashboard, the minimal application launcher is shown.

Expected Results:  
The dashboard should appear.
