I have run into a little bit of a mystery that I hope someone can clear up for me.

I have run into a little bit of a mystery that I hope someone can clear up for me. I have a panel at the bottom of my main desktop that acts as a scrolling dock.  As everyone who uses this app knows, you have to have app icons on your desktop in order to move them into the panel. For this specific purpose I have left open space on my main desktop right above the panel and below the widgets I have on that desktop. In the past when I would go into the app drawer and long press on an apps icon and then select “Add to launcher”, a shortcut for that application would be added into that empty space on my main desktop and I could then add that shortcut into the panel. I populated the panel with that method and everything worked just fine. Recently I decided that several of those shortcuts in the panel could be replaced with shortcuts from different apps that I found  I am using more. I went ahead and removed the shortcuts from the panel that I wanted to replace and then went into my app drawer and long pressed on the two app icons within the drawer of the newer apps and choose the “Add to launcher” command from the popup menu. Unfortunately, no shortcuts have appeared on my main desktop or in any of the free space on the other two desktop I have setup. I have even zoomed out on these desktops to see if they were being added in an area outside of what I could normally view and there is nothing there. I have tried this a number of times with the same results. At this point, I cannot populate the free space in my panel because I can no longer add shortcuts to my desktops. This is the first time I have tried doing this since the new version of Lightning Launcher (with the new editor interface) had been released…..so have things changed in respect to how a panel gets populated? Am I doing something wrong now? I need some help because I now have a scrolling dock (in the form of the panel) at the bottom of my launcher with conspicuous empty spots that are like missing teeth and I have no way that I know of to fix this.
