[Bug 754580] Re: Cannot move tabs between multiple Firefox or Chromium windows while using Unity unless windows are both unmaximized, unminimized, and visible.
** Description changed:
- Binary package hint: unity
+ [Impact]
+ It's not possible to drag firefox or chromium tabs to the relative launcher icon in order to select a different window as drop target.
+
+ [Test case]
+ 1. Open two Chromium or Firefox windows, with two tabs open in each.
+ 2. Start dragging a browser tab over a browser icon in the Launcher
+ 3. Unity should displays a spread of the two browser windows
+ 4. It will be possible to drop the tab in one of the browser windows,
+ after selecting it in spread.
+
+ [Regression Potential]
+ As it happened with bug #727902 this codepath was disabled in the past, thus there's basically no regression potential.
+
+ ---------------
With Metacity, one would need only to drag the tab to the bottom bar,
mouse-over the destination window, and then release the tab in the newly
focused window.
There is no equivalent behavior with Unity. Dragging tabs to its bar
does nothing.
-
---------------------
Desired resolution:
Users should be able to move tabs between browser windows irrespective
of window state (minimised, restored or maximised) by dragging and
dropping the via the Launcher app spread.
-
- Use case
- 1. User opens two Chromium or Firefox windows, with two tabs open in each.
- 2. User starts dragging a browser tab
- 3. Unity slides out the Launcher with valid drop receptacles highlighted
- 4. User drags the tab over a browser icon in the Launcher
- 5. Unity displays a spread of the two browser windows
- 6. User continues the drag, and drags and drops the tab into the other browser window
- 7. Unity shifts the tab to the other browser window. If this window is minimised it is restored and brought into focus. If this window is maximised or restored it is brought into focus.
