New Unity8 desktop launcher design has an indication of running apps the same way Unity7 launcher does at the moment. With updated visuals of course. When this feature lands it will be automatically visible in the phone version too. So whatever app appears in the app switcher stack will have an indication in the launcher as well.
** Description changed: Hello, I think that will be good if left launcher shows us somehow what app is in opened. For now, when we start new app, its icon 'lands' in left launcher. But we don't know if that app is pinned there and it is all the time, or only because it's opened. I think that in Desktop version that issue is solved, but for now can't check it now. + + --------Desired solution------------------- + Launcher should indicate running apps in the launcher with a mark on the left side of the app icon. ** Changed in: ubuntu-ux Assignee: (unassigned) => Vesa Rautiainen (vesar) ** Changed in: ubuntu-ux Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: ubuntu-ux Status: New => Fix Committed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1471577 Title: Left launcher should show what apps are open To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1471577/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
