Trying to add an app from desktop app dock to Favourites doesn't work. The mouse jumps to different context menu item.

[Teh Kok How]

Open "Text Editor", right click on the app icon on desktop app dock (auto-hiding) using the context menu doesn't work at all. Scroll the mouse to "Add to favourites" but the mouse clicks ends up triggering the menu item above that original intended action. This sucks!

Ubuntu 22.04 desktop @ 25/7/2022

I tested this on the gedit icon described as above, but i cannot reproduce this
my icon adds to dock favorites like it should

maybe this is a glitch from your upgrade?

Try with auto-hiding bottom Dock please?
