Title:
Custom dash shortcut to desktop file drops Exec args
Status in Unity:
Won't Fix
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
* unity with custom dash patch (unity 4.28.0-0ubuntu1~ppa1) is installed
* I have custom dash with two simple shortcuts consisting only of "source"
items: one to libreoffice-writer.desktop, and one to libreoffice-calc.desktop
Both shortcuts display in dash as expected (the writer icon and calc
icons display).
But, clicking on either does not launch the specific libreoffice app.
Instead, libreoffice *generic* launcher displays and I need then to
pick writer or calc (or draw, etc).
I guess the command line argument from the desktop file is dropped.
I also have a dash shortcut to firefox.desktop, whose Exec line also
takes an arg. I modified the desktop file arg to hard code a path to a
local html file, and on launching FF from the launcher, the local html
displays, but when launching from dash, it does not.
