Making the drag and drop async in Unity has some issue that IMHO needs design feedback.
Let's say we are dragging a very heavy file. To get the mime type of this file we need more than 5 seconds. Using g_file_query_info_async during this 5 seconds the ui doesn't freeze but the launcher icons will be not dimmed/prelighted. What happens if we drop this file in a launcher icon during this 5 seconds (that is before g_file_query_info_async returns the needed values?). Should we refuse the drop or we should accept it? Please give me feedback about it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/772445 Title: Dragging image from firefox/chrome to dock causes lagg/freeze To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/772445/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
