Unity 2D users are all affected as well as Classic desktop users with 'No Effects'. Visually there is no frontier any more between application which just looks odd. I do not know of any other OS that does that. The main difference with Compiz is that Metacity does not have shadows. Usability wise, the border was also use has a handle (probably too thin) to let the user resize the window. Without that border the user can only resize the window using the bottom right handle. Proposal to re-apply zero-pixel borders: Bug #740579 ("Wishlist: move to 0px borders now that Unity and Unity-2D/Metacity can cope") To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/733431/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
