Unity 7 style desktop has not been on top of our priority list recently in design team but I acknowledge that this feature is something that many users would like to have. So we're looking into this and I would expect this to land in Unity8 at some point. -- You received this bug notification bec

In case anyone is wondering, in Unity7 it's not the shell that implements this. We use 'nautilus' which takes over and renders the desktop window by default. Although maybe in Unity8 the story would be different... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, whi
