This seems to be expected behaviour. The 'folder' created by dragging the icon, is not a folder, but a launcher to the Home Folder (i.e. .desktop file). So you can't drag a file to a launcher. Closing this bug. If you think this is an error, you can always re-open it. Thanks. |

I'm sorry but i still believe this should be default behavior. Most users don't know when they create .desktop files or launchers and just expect things to "Just Work". I know perhaps this is a lot of work but it should be the default action when the .desktop file launches a folder. Either this or when copying home from the places menu should active the nautilus gconf string to show home folder on desktop. The best option is to make even launchers of folders copyable to. |

OK Setting package from (undefined) to nautilus, so it gets out the list of bugs without package. |

Instructions to Reproduce:
1. from the Places Menu drag your home folder to the desktop. this creates a usable icon which you can open and close (works fine).
2. Try do drag a text file or jpg file into the icon with the intention to copy the files to your home folder.
3.Watch it not work
I've included a screenshot of the launcher properties and error, perhaps it's useful.
I'm using latest dapper version w/ updates
Note: the original reporter indicated the bug was in package 'gnome-desktop'; however, that package was not published in Ubuntu. |
