Title:
Dash visibly reorganizes recent items
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Say my last opened application is Nautilus (Files), then it will
appear as the first item in the Dash home lens. Suppose I closed
Nautilus. Now I open Firefox via the Dash home lens. If I go back to
the Dash home lens, Nautilus will still be the first item in the
recent applications. A little duration after opening the Dash, Firefox
is then set as the first one.
The problem is that for my hardware (Intel 945GM integrated graphics)
this little duration is in the order of a second, so if I would like
to open Nautilus I end up clicking on the newly positioned Firefox
icon.
I would suggest that all this reorganization, not related to
searching, be done in the background while the Dash is closed, so
there's no way to make a mistake while trying to click a "moving"
icon.
** What happens **
When I open the Dash, the icons are repositioned. The duration of such
process is hardware dependent.
** What should happen **
If I am not searching, the positions of the icons in the Dash home lens
should be fixed. This implies that the recently used items be sorted while the
Dash is closed.
