Matching subscriptions: dp-unity https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1129410 Title: When using Window Spread, a maximized window changes its size Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Steps to reproduce: - open a window (e.g. "Home Folder" window) - maximize the window - press Super + W to trigger the "window spread" feature. What I expect to happen: - a thumbnail view of the maximized window is displayed What happened instead: - the logic height of the window is decreased by ~30px and a thumbnail view is displayed This is easily measurable by choosing in nautilus a folder with lots of files and selecting list view mode. at least 2 rows are not displayed in the thumbnail view. Why this is important: When your use e.g. Virtualbox and the window is maximized, using the "window spread" feature causes a change of resolution in the Virtualbox guest OS. (causes flickering, movement of windows within the guest and other pains). Exiting the "window spread" causes again a change of resolution.
