Description Alexander Wilms 2024-06-20 22:44:37 UTC

SUMMARY
The 'Application Launcher' widget allows dragging entries and dropping them on the desktop, which opens a menu with the entries 'Copy Here' and 'Link Here'. The 'Application Launcher' is missing this feature.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Drag and drop entry from Application Launcher to desktop
2. Drag and drop entry from Application Menu to desktop

OBSERVED RESULT
Application Menu entries cannot be dragged. The appears to be no drag event being triggered at all, the cursor doesn't change and the application icon doesn't appear next to it.

EXPECTED RESULT
Application Menu entries can be dragged onto the desktop.
