This bug is not a duplicate of bug #723882 and, in fact, I'm still experiencing it in Ubuntu 12.04.2 despite #723882 being fixed a while ago. The issue here is that a maximized window does not get raised when you click on the title bar (which is the universal menu bar). My configuration is thus: I have sloppy focus turned on (gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences focus-mode 'sloppy'). I have auto-raise turned off (gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences auto-raise false), and raise-on-click also turned off (gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences raise-on-click false). Thus, the only way for me to bring one window to the front (not including Alt-Tab or similar switchers) is to click on the window title bar or border. Since maximized windows don't have a border, the title bar is my only option, but clicking it does not raise the window. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.
