[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1311303] Re: Unable to switch desktops using compiz mouse functions
Hi, Thank you for reporting this bug. Which mouse buttons are you using to switch workspaces? Are you using any modifier, such as Alt or Control, to do this as well? Thanks! ** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1311303 Title: Unable to switch desktops using compiz mouse functions Status in “compiz” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Running Ubuntu 14.04 and compiz 0.9.11.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1311303] Re: Unable to switch desktops using compiz mouse functions
Thanks for getting in touch. I'm using buttons 6 and 7, which on my mouse are on the sides of the scroll wheel. This is without any keyboard modifiers. Using keyboard shortcuts to do the same thing (ctrl+alt+left/right) works as expected whether a window is focussed or not. There's something odd I discovered today while testing things a bit more: it works as expected when the window is minimised, but the problem occurs again where the window is maximised or when it is minimised and snapped to the top left corner. This is rather bizarre, and I wonder whether it may have something to do with the way windows are handled in 14.04. The problem also occurs when there are no active windows and the desktop is not focussed, but since keyboard shortcuts also fail to work in this situation, I suspect this is a different bug. I have updated the bug description accordingly. ** Description changed: Running Ubuntu 14.04 and compiz 0.9.11.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1311303] Re: Unable to switch desktops using compiz mouse functions
Thanks for the additional info. This is due to a fairly recent change I put in to make scrolling in unfocused Gtk window work. I was a little too heavy handed on horizontal scrolling, ie, buttons 6 7. I don't think horizontal scrolling is used too much and besides, if someone explicitly maps those buttons to Compiz functions, then they shouldn't expect horizontal scrolling in windows to work any more. I'll work on a fix and hopefully get it landed in an upcoming Compiz SRU for 14.04 ** Summary changed: - Unable to switch desktops using compiz mouse functions + Compiz mouse functions mapped to horizontal scrolling buttons do not work ** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Triaged ** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Medium ** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Christopher Townsend (townsend) ** Also affects: compiz Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: compiz Status: New = Triaged ** Changed in: compiz Importance: Undecided = Medium ** Changed in: compiz Assignee: (unassigned) = Christopher Townsend (townsend) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1311303 Title: Compiz mouse functions mapped to horizontal scrolling buttons do not work Status in Compiz: Triaged Status in “compiz” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Running Ubuntu 14.04 and compiz 0.9.11.
