Put a non-maximized window against the border of your workspace 2. Switch to the adjoining workspace 3. Select the window in Unity Expected Behavior - You are switched back to the workspace with the window + You are switched back to the workspace with the window What actually happens - You stay in the current workspace AND the window is shifted slightly into the current workspace - Making it impossible to use without manually switching to the workspace and dragging the window back to where it was - + You stay in the current workspace AND the window is shifted slightly into the current workspace + Making it impossible to use without manually switching to the workspace and dragging the window back to where it was Screenshoted instructions: 1) Put an application window hard against the side of your workspace without maximizing it Bottom right workspace: http://rc.id.au/f/images/1-window-move-bug.png (All workspaces: http://rc.id.au/f/images/2-window-move-bug.png) 2) Go to a different workspace which shares an edge with your application Top right workspace: http://rc.id.au/f/images/3-window-move-bug.png 3) Click on the application within the launcher, and the application will jump a little way into the next workspace Top right workspace after clicking on XChat and Gwibber launcher icons: http://rc.id.au/f/images/4-window-move-bug.png To show this more, I reset the windows to their original locations from #1, went into the bottom left workspace and clicked on Gwibber again: http://rc.id.au/f/images/5-window-move-bug.png I hope that makes sense and explains the bug.
