Description vytas 2019-04-21 17:27:11 UTC

SUMMARY
If a script (via add script) is added to the list, it later cannot be edited, as opposed to programs (via add program) which can be edited at any time.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. add any script from /usr/bin to the list
2. try to edit it once its added


OBSERVED RESULT
cannot be edited

EXPECTED RESULT
should be able to edit to have feature parity between add program and add script.

Thank you for the bug report. I'm not sure which features you would like to be able to edit. In my autostart, I have the option of seeing the properties of the .desktop file that is used for autostart or removing it.

For scripts I just have the option of removing it, which I feel is enough.

Can you please elaborate further on what you'd like to see changed?

The only thing you would be able to change is the path to the script file, which is functionally identical to removing it and adding a new one.
