[Bug 998911] Re: Can't open dash when no windows are open, if not my cursor is on the launcher/panel
The problem is that the software stack that makes up Unity is designed to work together as a system. If you start removing a part of the system, it turns out the system no longer works as expected. Removing the desktop portion of the desktop shell means that input and action on the desktop does not get to the shell. That said, there may be some underlying change that can accommodate this pathology. Marking as low priority for someone to review as time permits. ** Changed in: unity Importance: Undecided = Low ** Changed in: unity Status: Confirmed = Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/998911 Title: Can't open dash when no windows are open, if not my cursor is on the launcher/panel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/998911/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Its a bit weird, but the desktop is an actual window that nautialis starts. So if you disable the handing of the desktop then no window appears which means no window is focused causing these problems... To fix this you 'should' just need to start nautlis back up :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/998911 Title: Can't open dash when no windows are open, if not my cursor is on the launcher/panel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/998911/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 998911] Re: Can't open dash when no windows are open, if not my cursor is on the launcher/panel
I've found that the reason for the dash not being able to open is that I disabled the file manager's handling of the desktop. By enabling it everything works again. I have no idea why the issue is related to that or why this also causes the top panel to lose it's shadow. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/998911 Title: Can't open dash when no windows are open, if not my cursor is on the launcher/panel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/998911/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Bug 952321 seems to generalize the problem, including what's described here. But I am hesitant to group everything in bug 952321 because it likely describes multiple bugs which should be handled separately. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/998911 Title: Can't open dash when no windows are open, if not my cursor is on the launcher/panel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/998911/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
