I'm having the same issue. I can reproduce the behavior every time though. I have a panel with a firefox launcher. I'm also using compiz (so the when I click on a launcher the icon does the zoom and fade out thing) It's easier to reproduce the bug when compiz is enabled.
To reproduce the problem: > create an auto-hide panel with a firefox launcher > click on the launcher and exactly when compiz does the icon zoom and fade out > thing (or if not using compiz within 250ms) move the cursor to the middle of > the screen where firefox will appear. > If you keep the cursor where on the launcher for more than the compiz > animation (i'm guessing around 250ms) and then move the cursor, the panel > will always autohide. This issue is really bothering me. It's basically making the auto-hide capability disappointing at best. -- gnome-panel autohides inconsistently https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/82504 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
