weird bugs, I can't confirm it either, I change workspaces a lot and never saw that neither on precise nor oneiric before ** Changed in: unity Importance: Undecided = Low ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/946649 Title: Unity destroys window layout (maximize) on switching workspaces To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/946649/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 946649] Re: Unity destroys window layout (maximize) on switching workspaces
Hi Tim! I'm using unity-2d and I'm using keyboard shortcuts to switch workspaces. I can still reproduce this in the latest precise. My video resolution is 1366x768 and I especially observe this bevaiour i.e. with a 80% sized FireFox and Thunderbird. After pressing Ctrl-(Shift)-Right and Then Ctrl-(Shift)-Left the window becomes maximized (I can even watch this!). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/946649 Title: Unity destroys window layout (maximize) on switching workspaces To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/946649/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 946649] Re: Unity destroys window layout (maximize) on switching workspaces
Not a bug, feature, it's supposed to maximize windows that are almost maximized. It does that on window map, so switching workspaces, as well as launching the app, should maximize: $ gconftool-2 --get /apps/metacity/general/auto_maximize_windows You can disable with: $ gconftool-2 --set --type bool /apps/metacity/general/auto_maximize_windows false Please reopen if that does not fix your issues. ** Changed in: unity-2d (Ubuntu) Status: New = Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/946649 Title: Unity destroys window layout (maximize) on switching workspaces To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/946649/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 946649] Re: Unity destroys window layout (maximize) on switching workspaces
@saviq Hi Michał! Yes- I'm aware of auto-maximize feature on _opening_ windows. Personally I do feel this being a bug for _switching_ workspaces. And a very annoying one, too. I expected, that this might be semi-opinion. Therefore I initially opened my issue in Ayatana Design. John Lea forwarded this to Unity 3D, adding the section about the desired resolution. Unity 3D rejected : The design seems to differ from 2D doing it already right?! Design: Bug! = Unity 3D: Cannot reproduce! = Unity 2D: It's a Feature! Who do I need to convince? :-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/946649 Title: Unity destroys window layout (maximize) on switching workspaces To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/946649/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

John, can you please comment whether we do want auto-maximize windows on new window open, but not on switching workspaces, or not ever? ** Changed in: unity-2d (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/946649 Title: Unity destroys window layout (maximize) on switching workspaces To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/946649/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Benjamin, Which version of Unity are you using, and how are you changing workspaces? I'm running the latest precise build, and using the keybindings to move workspaces, and I don't see this issue at all. ** Changed in: ayatana-design Status: Triaged = Fix Committed ** Changed in: unity Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/946649 Title: Unity destroys window layout (maximize) on switching workspaces To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/946649/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
