Bug Description
[Test Case]
1. Open the files lens
2. Select and drag a document-file (e.g. text or image) to the launcher
-> As you drag the document-file watch the drag-targets (drop-recepticals) saturate. This saturation-process should be smooth and without flicker. The tinting of the non-drag-targets should not change.
[Regression Potential]
Launcher icons not saturating/
Original description:
As soon as a user starts dragging a file from the Dash, all the icons in the Launcher re-saturate briefly (they 'flicker'), before re-saturating leaving only the valid drop receptacles illuminated. This is incorrect, only the icons that are valid drop receptacles should change in any way.
The tinting of the launcher icons that are not valid drop receptacles becomes incorrect when a drag operation is underway, the icons seem to loose their average background colour tinting.
Also the illumination should fade in (and out) over 100ms, not switch on instantly.
-------
Desired Resolution:
- When a user starts dragging either:
a) A item from the Dash
b) A file in Nautilus
c) Some test that has been selected
...only the icons that are valid drop recepticals should illuminate. Icons that are not valid drop recepticals should not flicker, or change in any way
- The illumination of the valid drop recepticals should fade in (fade lasting 100ms)
- The tinting of icons that are not valid drop recepticals should not change in any way (currently they loose their tinting when a drag starts)
