I'm afraid this might be two bugs, but they affect pretty much the same
action:
I use 4 (2x2) virtual desktops on my Unity. When I use the "grid" by
draging a window or application to the right edge, the window maximizes
on the right half of the screen, but when you take a close look on the
LEFT edge of the next virtual desktop, you can see the border/shadow of
that window at the very left edge. I assume this to be the first bug, as
it doesn't happen when I drag a window to the left edge to use the grid
and maximize it on the left half of the screen.
The second bug appears when I now use the key-combination Super+W or
just click on the according icon in the launcherbar on the left. You
usualy should get an overview of all opened windows and applications and
then, by left-clicking on them, the window appears and - if the window
is opened on another desktop - the the view switches to the according
desktop. But as soon as there is just the smallest edge of the window,
which is to be opened, on the current desktop the desktop won't switch
an you might just see a 1-pixel-Bar on top of your applications.
For example: I write this report in firefox on desktop 1 (top left) and
got my home folder opened in nautilus on desktop 2 (top right) which I
maximized on the right half of the screen. Neither clicking on nautilus
on Super+W nor clicking on the Nautilus icon in the launcher switch to
desktop 2! Moreover: when I switch to desktop 3 (buttom left) and do
this nothing even happens (I stay on desktop 3) but when I do this on
desktop 4 (buttom right) it supprisingly switches to the right window on
desktop 2!
I hope you could follow my explanations an can reproduce this bug so it
can be fixed!
