Bug Description

I use a firefox extension called "Drag It", it's a mouse guesture tool, it works fine before ubuntu 10.10
in 12.04 when I drag a link on the website, it seems like the Launcher panel captures the event too, and the Launcher panel shows up(which I've already configured as "auto hide"), thus the mouse guesture failed

I also tried other mouse guesture extension, neither of them worked

sorry for my poor English, I hope you guys can fix it
feel free to contact me at scutweiqiang.yang(at)gmail.com if you need further information.
thank you.

We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner.

Does the "Drag It" extension still exist?

If this is still an issue using a maintained version of Ubuntu please let us know otherwise this report can be left to expire in approximately 60 days time.
