[Dx-packages] [Bug 1131385] Re: "Always on top" prevents application spread from working
This bug was fixed in the package unity - 7.3.2+15.10.20150512-0ubuntu1 --- unity (7.3.2+15.10.20150512-0ubuntu1) wily; urgency=medium [ Chris Townsend ] * Add new signal to tell the Launcher to terminate keynav mode and use that signal when a BFB quicklist item is chosen. (LP: #1052024, #1444643) * Add option to enable and disable Unity low graphics mode on the fly in ccsm or via gsettings. (LP: #1412937) * Remove code that is no longer needed and broke opening application spread while in Launcher keynav mode. (LP: #1445082) * Save the active window when showing the Dash so the correct window is focused when hiding the Dash. Fixes issue when "Always on Top" windows are present. (LP: #1446634) * Save the active window when showing the Hud so the correct window is focused when hiding the Hud. Fixes issue when "Always on Top" windows are present. (LP: #1366583) * Send signal to ensure the Dash will show when entering keynav mode since the first icon always highlighted is the BFB. (LP: #1444113) * When looking for the top-most valid window in a VP, also check if the window is focused if the window is set to Always on Top. This allows Launcher icon spread to work properly when a window is minimized an Always on Top exists in the group. (LP: #1131385) * When using the left arrow to exit a Quicklist, Launcher keynav is implied and should be active regardless of how the Quicklist was opened. (LP: #1444626) [ Eleni Maria Stea ] * The skydome rendering of the cube plugin was wrong with unity because transformation matrices set by the unityshell plugin were left in the opengl matrix stacks affecting other compiz plugins. Saving the compiz state at the beginning of the unityshell plugin rendering functions and restoring it at the end of them fixes the problem.

only the return value of window->state() is changed from the 'normal

So now the question is, why !(window->state() &

[Dx-packages] [Bug 1131385] Re: "Always on top" prevents application spread from working
If all of the windows shown on desktop (active windows) are set as 'always on top', GetTopMostValidWindowInViewport() will be "Desktop" but not any of the active windows. This could explain the phenomenon noted in the comment #9: 'if there are two windows set as "Always onTop", this bug could be reproduced.' It looks like the flag 'Always on Top' make active windows 'could not be seen' or 'disapear from Desktop' If we could make GetTopMostValidWindowInViewport() return the expected value, this bug could be fixed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.

[Dx-packages] [Bug 1131385] Re: "Always on top" prevents application spread from working
why does wm.IsWindowOnTop(xid) return false when the window is set as
"Always on Top"
this is because GetTopMostValidWindowInViewport() does not return the
xid which is equal to the "Always on Top" window.

[Dx-packages] [Bug 1131385] Re: "Always on top" prevents application spread from working
Focus method mentioned in comment #8 should be in line 418 namely the two variables "active" and "scaleWasActive" are false. A window which set as "Always on Top" make wm.IsWindowOnTop(xid) return false, and this make "any_on_top" keep false. Finally "active" will be set as false. More information: if there are two windows set as "Always onTop", this bug could be reproduced. This is because wm.IsWindowOnTop could not make "any_on_top" be true, nor would make "active" true. NEXT: why does wm.IsWindowOnTop(xid) return false when the window is set as "Always on Top" -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.

One method of switching between them is clicking the launcher icon which reveals the application spread. Now you can choose between the windows. This is how it should be. However, the design idea was, if the windows are marked "Always on Top" there is no need for an application spread, as they are always on top. This is a bug and needs to be changed, because it does not consider minimized windows and therefore prevents switching to those windows. If you have windows of the same application open, some of them minimized and ALL non-minimized windows are marked as "Always on top", the application spread does not work anymore, clicking the launcher does nothing. Whether the minimized windows are marked always on top or not does not matter. So the simplest way to reproduce this bug would be: 1.) Open two windows of the same application. 2.) Minimize one and mark the other (non-minimized) as "Always on top". 3.)

[Dx-packages] [Bug 1131385] Re: "Always on top" prevents application spread from working
gdb shows the if statement in launcher/ApplicationLauncherIcon.cpp goes to 398 Focus(arg); instead of 404 Spread(true, 0, false); the Spread method in line 404 is what we expect to issue when clicking the launcher icon. When we set one of the window as "Always on Top", the statement goes go the Focus method in line 398. testing on 13.10 with unity 7.1.2 7.1.2+13.10.20131014.1-0ubuntu1 NEXT: why it goes to Focus instead of Spread method -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.
