Public bug reported: Recent apps live and can be accessed already via right edge. Them appearing in the Launcher is duplication. Also mixing recent apps with favourite ones is a concept that users has difficulties to grasp.
Launcher should only contained pinned apps, any apps that are asking for attention, and the currently focused app. The currently focused app should always be at the top. Any apps that are asking for attention should be positioned below the currently focused app and above the pinned apps, and when the user focuses an app that is asking for attention (via any method) this app should be removed from the launcher. The currently focused app should have a "Add to launcher" option in it's quicklist Proper design is still missing. ** Affects: ubuntu-ux Importance: Medium Assignee: Vesa Rautiainen (vesar) Status: Triaged ** Changed in: unity8 (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Vesa Rautiainen (vesar) ** Also affects: ubuntu-ux Importance: Undecided Status: New ** No longer affects: unity8 (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: ubuntu-ux Assignee: (unassigned) => Vesa Rautiainen (vesar) ** Changed in: ubuntu-ux Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: ubuntu-ux Status: New => Triaged ** Description changed: Recent apps live and can be accessed already via right edge.
