Err you have to select "remove from favorites" from the menu after the right click (and you will be asked whether you want to undo that or not in case you did it by accident). > I think it would be better to simply let the user drag the > app out of the favorites area as in "I don't want the app to be among my > favorites any more". The action almost literally translates to the intent. This conflicts with the the fact that you can drag an icon to open it on a specific workspace, also you can just drag and drop it on the trash icon that shows up in the end of the dash. -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
