There is a simple workaround. - Copy /usr/share/applications/thunderbird.desktop to ~/.local/share/applications - Edit thunderbird.desktop - Change the MimeType option to: MimeType=text/*;application/*;image/*;audio/*;video/*;x-scheme-handler/mailto; (without quotes) This will make Thunderbird accept every dragged and dropped file, but unfortunaly only one file at once. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/873167 Title: Cannot drag emails between Thunderbird windows[regression] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/873167/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

the disabling of the unity launcher when it detects an unsupported data type is just not usable in practise, theoretically it may be useful but bossing users around is not what a good interface should actually do! In my usecase, drag and drop a selecteed text content to another program fails so badly because none of the launchers light up or actually bring out the windows, i used meta+tab to select apps from the launcher but thats just useless when you have more windows per application(how am I really going to raise the window that I want to use up?), this would be so much easier if you didn't have this disabling effect on the unity launcher any way and displayed a window list on hovering(i know this can't be done in a tab and that unity is targeted for tabs, but we are not using Ubuntu on tablets! they are normal computers with mice/touchpads!)

I completely agree with matteo. This is really terrible design (this new mime-type restriction of unity launchers). It may seem cool for about 2 seconds, until you realize what a huge hindrance it actually is. I like to drag files to the terminal window so that the path to a file (or directory) gets written to the command line. I like to drag files to thunderbird to add as attachments. And there are many more examples. Now, I cannot do these things anymore. Anyone know a way to turn this off? Very, very, very unhelpful behavior for me. I am not stupid: I know what programs can handle what file typeJeez. This makes me really want to stop using Unity. A really garbage idea.

[Bug 873167] Re: Cannot drag emails between Thunderbird windows [regression]
Indeed when dragging something into the icon of an application which is open, it should ALWAYS bring up the window, no matter what you are dragging and no matter whether the app is supposed to be able to handle it or not. I don't think it's a regression; though I only used 11.04 for a very short while I'm almost certain this worked the same. It is the way unity is designed (which is fundamentally wrong): - when you drag something into launcher, ALL icons of applications that are open should highlight, without trying to discern whether they can handle that kind of object you're dragging. I know this is intended to be a feature, but unless it can be 100% realiable (which will never be) it is only an annoyance. You can't accept that there is even the most remote possibility that an app that could handle the object doesn't get highlighted, while the opposite is perfectly acceptable (the object will simply be discarded when dropped, as it was in gnome). - when you finally drag the object into the icon of the application (one which is open) it should ALWAYS bring up the windows and let you drag on top of a particular window (if there is more than one) and finally bring completely up the window you choose so that you can drop the object on a particular place. This indeed comes down to a more fundamental design flaw, which is the very fact of treating icons of existing open windows the same as icons of applications to be launched. I know this is the same as MacOS, but Apple can afford to do things plainly wrong and have its user not only accept them but even love them just because they are the Apple way. A minimized window and an application to be lanched are two completely different things. Having them mixed and, worse, being treated in a similar way, is a major mistake. high importance is not enough. It's either this gets fixed quick or Unity should be discarded alltogether. Since Unity, actions that you would accomplish in a fraction of a second have become a pain in the ass. Give me ONE example of the opposite. I find myself carefully arranging window side by side on the screen and I feel like I have gone back to the 1990s. This is ridiculous. By the way I think the title of the report should be changed to something more general. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/873167 Title: Cannot drag emails between Thunderbird windows [regression] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/873167/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 873167] Re: Cannot drag emails between Thunderbird windows [regression]
Another example of why confusing icons of applications to be launched with icons of existing windows is wrong: you should be able to do these as two different actions, both useful in different situations: A. drag an object over the icon of an open window, so the window is brought to front, and then you can drag the object into a particular point of the window to handle it B. drag an object over the icon of the same application, in order to open a new instance of that application to handle that object, as you would do if there was no existing open instance of that app. In other words, the icon of the app as a launchable app should be separated from the icon of an existing open window of that app. As it had always been in gnome. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/873167 Title: Cannot drag emails between Thunderbird windows [regression] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/873167/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

In fact, it affects all applications where the functionality depends on _where_ you drop the content.

With two maximized apps, when dragging content from one to another, there is no way to raise the other app. Instead, I have to first resize both apps so that they fit side be side on the screen.
