SUMMARY If I try to add an icon for a .desktop file, to have a handy launcher for a script or aplication, said icon is always placed in the central area of Latte, not in the place I want, normally beside the system tray. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Drag & drop a script from Dolphin to Latte, just close to the clock and system tray area. OBSERVED RESULT Said icon is placed in the middle of Latte's panel, together with the icons of the running apps, so is easy you run unwillingly the corresponding script or program if you make a mistake and click just half centimeter more to the right/left than you really want. EXPECTED RESULT The icon should sit in the very same place that I drop it on. I'd swear than in older versions it worked that way, or maybe it's the Plasma panel which works like that. Anyway, I think that manually added icons should sit in the position the user wants because we normally have a reason to try placing them right there.

This is default behavior in order to protect the user. If you prefer to add it as an applet you can disable that behavior through: Dock Settings -> advanced -> Tasks -> Interaction -> (disable) "Add launchers only in the Tasks Area"

Cool! Thanks.
