Bug ID: 357793
Summary: Can't drag and drop Firefox tabs to desktop to create
a new Firefox window.
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.5.2
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Reporter: dekaymail+...@gmail.com
CC: bhus...@gmail.com, plasma-b...@kde.org
I have a Firefox window with multiple tabs. If I drag a tab onto a blank space
on the desktop, Firefox is supposed to create a new window with its contents
being that tab, and at the same time remove that tab from the original window.
This works fine in Windows. This is on an up-to-date Arch installation with
Firefox 43 but it has been a problem for a long time. It did work back on
KDE4.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to drag a Firefox tab and hover it over an open spot on the KDE desktop.
A grabber hand appears over the tab, a mini-icon is made of the page being
dragged, the cursor changes from a grabber hand to an arrow with a "+" sign
over it once the cursor is over the desktop, and a square outline appears on
the desktop where the icon will be dropped. So far, so good.
2. Release the mouse button to make the drop happen.
Actual Results:
I hear activity on my disk but the square outline that was on my desktop fades
away and the Firefox tab is not created in a new window on the desktop. The
tab remains in the original window.
Expected Results:
The tab should have closed from the original window and reopened in a new
window.
- Works fine in Windows
- Used to work in KDE4
- Drag and drop of Konsole tabs onto the desktop to a new window works fine.
