Public bug reported: I am running Ubuntu 18.04 64 bit with Gnome III. Action to see bug: 1. double left mouse click on launcher icon on left toolbar (usually happens with Chromium Browser icon) 2. Desired result: Drop down menu appears with options to open Chromium browser 3. Actual result when bug appears: Drop down menu appears then whole desktop freezes. No further mouseclicks on display work. Dropdown menu remains frozen on display. 4. Current workaround: When bug appears, the desktop can be unfrozen via cntl-alt-del keys but the drop-down menu remains frozen in place. Next, the frozen drop-down menu can now be closed by clicking on the "Activities" menu on the upper-left corner of the desktop and then clicking on the icon with the frozen drop-down menu. These actions close the frozen drop-down menu and restore normal operation of the Gnome III for a while until the bug pops up again. This bug has become especially common now rendering the desktop almost unusable and I'm thinking of replacing Gnome III due to this. Thanks, Phil
