Public bug reported: - Hover the mouse over the ubuntu button. Click it. - Now hover the mouse over an indicator applet on the top panel. Click it.
What do you see? The indicator applet is activated as soon as you press the mouse button; the ubuntu button is activated when you *release* the mouse button. This behavior is inconsistent and ugly. The ubuntu button feels slow - even though it isn't! - because it doesn't activate for 100-300ms (the time it takes for you to release the mouse button). There is no good reason why the menu is activated on mouse-up: moving the mouse over the top-left portion of the screen and clicking is a very deliberate action. This menu "hesitation" issue had been bothering me for months but I couldn't quite pinpoint its cause. Today it finally downed on me. Please fix! :) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.04 Package: unity 3.8.16-0ubuntu1~natty1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.38-8.42-generic 2.6.38.2 Uname: Linux 2.6.38-8-generic x86_64 Architecture: amd64 CompizPlugins: [core,bailer,detection,composite,opengl,decor,compiztoolbox,regex,place,imgpng,snap,vpswitch,gnomecompat,resize,mousepoll,grid,unitymtgrabhandles,move,animation,expo,session,wall,workarounds,ezoom,staticswitcher,fade,scale,unityshell] Date: Fri Jul 1 21:58:42 2011 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Release amd64 (20110427.1) ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=en_US:en LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: unity UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug natty running-unity -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/804486 Title: Ubuntu Unity button is activated on mouse up not mouse down To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/804486/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
