Bug Description

I just upgraded to 11.04 and I use Kmail for my email program. When I move a mail message to a folder the launcher detects the move and reveals itself. But it does not close when move is completed. I suspect that this detection is not desired since I wouldn't want a mail message on the launch bar. Might also appear with other programs as well that do drag and drop operations. I do know it pops out during many move operations, but it doesn't get stuck like with kmail.

To restore to hidden position I have to close kmail and reload or switch to another workstation and start a move operation and cancel it.

affects: ubuntu → kdepim (Ubuntu)
affects: kdepim (Ubuntu) → unity (Ubuntu)

Confirmed as repaired in the proposed updates. Installed updates and tested
OK in both KMail and K3B software programs.

Please let me know if there is anything I need to do in the bug tracking
report. I logged in to the report but did not see an option to complete as
repaired or solved.

Thanks,
James
