From ac6337848f4b4c62c4e282ae300b9aa120006231 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Georges Basile Stavracas Neto Date: Fri, 8 Jan 2021 17:25:45 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] workspacesView: Disable mouse drag to switch workspaces During the user research, it was found that users would instinctively drag the workspace horizontally but would often, in the process, accidentally drag a window. Disable dragging workspaces using the cursor for now.
