[Bug 727902] Re: Launcher icon highlighting should not switch off as soon the cursor moves after the app spread appears.

 

** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ When dragging a file to an application with multiple windows open and the spread is triggered, any movement of the mouse switches off the selective highlighting and dimming of valid/non-valid drop receptacles.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 1) Open two windows instances of the same application (say firefox)
+ 2) Drag a file from the file-manager or the desktop and hover the firefox icon
+ 3) After one second the firefox icon is hovered, the spread will occur
+ 4) Dragging the icon outside the launcher and in the spread area (both over a window or
+    not) should keep the desaturated icons as they were before.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ Launcher icon might be not saturated again when exiting from spread.

  Description.
  
  When a file is dragged and held over a application icon in the Launcher
  a spread of the app windows appear.  The user can then drag and drop the
  file on to one of the windows to specify the window in which they would
  like the file to be loaded.
  
  The bug is that after the spread appears, any movement of the mouse
  switches off the selective highlighting and dimming of valid/non-valid
  drop receptacles.
  
  Desired behaviour
  
  - The highlighting and dimming of Launcher icons should persist until the user drops the file.
  - Note that the 'spread when a item is held over a launcher icon' behaviour seems to be broken in the Oneiric final freeze release (nothing happens).

  When a file is dragged and held over a application icon in the
  Launcher a spread of the app windows appear.  The user can then drag

  drop receptacles.

  Desired behaviour

  - The highlighting and dimming of Launcher icons should persist until the user drops the file.
  - Note that the 'spread when a item is held over a launcher icon' behaviour seems to be broken in the Oneiric final freeze release (nothing happens).
