Description Tim Reilly 2006-08-23 19:14:21 UTC 
Clicking launchers on the panel while using dogtail doesn't create any entries in the recorder. This impedes panel testing and is unintuitive, amoung other things.

Launching apps via the panel also seems to have the issue of not telling dogtail to focus on the launched app. Does this pose a problem? Users of the recorder won't likely do anything to "focus" the app beyond what the window manager automatically does.

OK, this is weird. With CVS HEAD I was able to get the recorder to record me clicking on a launcher, but when I tried again it didn't work.

dogtail development has been stalled and it has been unmaintained for a few
years now.
Maintainers don't have future development plan so i am closing bugs as WONTFIX.
Please feel free to reopen the bugs in future if anyone takes the responsibility for active development.
