[Bug 760437] Re: Can't start firefox when a download is in progress
I think this is an expected behaviour under unity. When an instance of an application is already running, if you need to open another instance under unity, you have to MIDDLE click the launcher icon and not left click. This feature was introduced as a fix for bug 709707. There used to be a new window button. This was dropped to incorporate the middle click option. See Mark Shuttleworth's comment https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/709707/comments/3 In my opinion this bug should be closed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/760437 Title: Can't start firefox when a download is in progress -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 760437] Re: Can't start firefox when a download is in progress
The launcher icon is a taskbar icon + application launcher. And, the intended behavior by design is to group all windows of a single application under 1 launcher icon. Then how can we fix this bug? The current behavior 1) meets design specs and 2) is easy to use. We sure cannot differentiate between 2 clicks happening: 1) to focus the download window 2) To open up a new window of Firefox.
